Road has always been the focus
Intermodal TIR profile is raising especially in view of TIR Expansion
TIR has been
intermodal since 1975
![Page 11: TIR for intermodal transportPILOT PROJECT FRAME 19 Customs Offices 6 Holders 100+ eGuarantees issued Izmir Tehran (2) Gürbulak/Bazargan Istanbul, Erenköy Derince Adana Ege Serbest](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051916/6007f5c7d6c8d21c9e5b07a3/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Intermodal TIR: a brief overview
TIR Convention allows for the intermodal transport of goods
provided that at least one leg of the journey is carried out by road.
TIR is most frequently used in intermodal operations in RoRo
transport through ferry services, however the interest and volumes
of transport of containers under TIR are growing now
During a non-road leg, the TIR guarantee can be either
suspended or continued. When suspended, TIR transport can be
resumed at the customs office situated at the end of the non-road
leg.
![Page 12: TIR for intermodal transportPILOT PROJECT FRAME 19 Customs Offices 6 Holders 100+ eGuarantees issued Izmir Tehran (2) Gürbulak/Bazargan Istanbul, Erenköy Derince Adana Ege Serbest](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051916/6007f5c7d6c8d21c9e5b07a3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Under intermodal TIR we can transport
The entire truck with trailer (RoRo)
Only trailer (RoRo)
Only container

Containers are in focus
TIR: from a trade facilitation tool for road transport to intermodal tool user
friendly for containers
![Page 14: TIR for intermodal transportPILOT PROJECT FRAME 19 Customs Offices 6 Holders 100+ eGuarantees issued Izmir Tehran (2) Gürbulak/Bazargan Istanbul, Erenköy Derince Adana Ege Serbest](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051916/6007f5c7d6c8d21c9e5b07a3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Benefits of the use of TIR in intermodal
transport
Security: sealed load compartments, possibility to track the
transit of containers via TIR-EPD
Possible preferential treatment of containers/ Ro-Ro under
TIR in the ports (e.g. Aktau and other to come) – time saver
Access to the network of trusted road transport operators
via TIR Associations ( facilitation of such access via TIR-
EPD in the future)
No physical cargo inspection along the route ( only at
departure to destination)
![Page 16: TIR for intermodal transportPILOT PROJECT FRAME 19 Customs Offices 6 Holders 100+ eGuarantees issued Izmir Tehran (2) Gürbulak/Bazargan Istanbul, Erenköy Derince Adana Ege Serbest](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022051916/6007f5c7d6c8d21c9e5b07a3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Significant delivery time decrease along various
itineraries 4 days saved - container transport from SRB to AZE with TIR
vs. w/o TIR
1-2 days saved on Mediterranean route between Turkey and
France
5 days: Slovenia- Iran
Benefits of the use of TIR in intermodal
transport Financial benefits and time saving benefits 1 guarantee instead
of a combination of guarantees in different countries ( up to several
thousands USD per container)
Improved utilisation of containers due to decreased
transport time( up to 33% per container)
