Unified form of oil passport and rules for filling it out approved

The Eurasian Economic Commission's Council amended the EAEU Technical Regulation "On safety of oil prepared for transportation and (or) use" (TR EAEU 045/2017) by supplementing it with a unified form of an oil passport and rules for filling it out, the availability of which is stipulated by the technical regulation.

Certain provisions of the technical regulation relating to the passport form were clarified for the uniform application of its requirements.

In order to ensure the transition to the unified form, passports issued for the crude oil run before enacting this decision, i.e. not according to the unified form, shall be valid until November 1, 2023.

Besides, the amendments envisage the frequency of oil testing to be established in the standards included in the list of standards for methods to the technical regulation.

The adopted amendments ensure the formation of unified approaches to the release and circulation of oil in the Union's territory, including with regard to the execution of documentation.
