The deadline to fulfil these documents is till the end of the month of September, after which anyone without these documents would not be allowed to enter the country.

Surprised by the new restrictions that were implemented by the Afghan government, president of the local transporters union Israr Shinwari opposed the conditions to be applied and said that the new conditions were not acceptable to them as it would harm trade with Afghanistan.

He further expressed that the officials of both countries should sit together to sort out the matter and take the transporters into confidence as it could seriously undermine Pakistan’s efforts to enhance bilateral trade with Afghanistan.
