Economic costs of the non-application of the TIR system by the Russian Federation

The International Road Transport Union (IRU) has commissioned Copenhagen Economics
to provide a study of the economic consequences of the non-application of the TIR
system by the Russian Federation.
The report calculates the total direct costs of the additional national guarantees which
must now be purchased when transporting goods into Russia by road. The report also
analyses the indirect costs of the new system and the wider economic consequences of the
restrictions of the TIR system.
