According to Zakon.kz, the authorities of Kazakhstan have introduced a ban on the export of certain types of petroleum products for a period of four months from the territory of the republic by all means of transport through a joint order. In particular, the export of gasoline, diesel fuel, and certain types of petroleum products is prohibited, with the exception of lubricating oils, liquid fuel, export in fuel tanks provided by the vehicle manufacturer, and aviation fuel.
It is specified that the joint order will come into effect ten calendar days after its publication.
Earlier, on January 20, 2023, a joint order from the Minister of Energy, the Minister of Finance, the Minister of Internal Affairs, and the Chairman of the National Security Committee extended the ban on the export of fuel by road transport for six months.
The ban on the export of petroleum products aims to ensure the domestic market of Kazakhstan with fuel. This is unlikely to lead to an increase in fuel prices in Tajikistan, as diesel fuel and gasoline are imported from Kazakhstan in small quantities. However, Kazakhstan is the main supplier of liquefied gas, and supplies from this country account for 84.1% of the total volume of liquefied gas imports in Tajikistan.
About 90% of diesel fuel and gasoline are imported into Tajikistan from Russia.
