CM reporter E have been receiving such conflicting information about rmits for haulage vehicles to pass through Lebanon after -Kling at Beirut that on Monday we telexed the Beirut agent European Plant Haulage, of Bedford. It was this company o first advised us that accompanied vehicles were being layed in Beirut because the Lebanese were intent on using .ab traction (CM June 13).
The agent is Continental Express Transport Co, PO Box 89, Beirut. These are the questions and answers as they peared on our telex machine :
I THE LEBANESE AUTHORITIES ALLOW FOREIGN VEHICLES TO ANSIT THE COUNTRY?
E LEBANESE AUTHORITIES ALLOW FOREIGN TRUCKS TO ANSIT IF THEY ARE EMPTY. BUT IF THEY ARE LOADED WITH ,RGO THEY HAVE TO DISCHARGE INTO LOCAL TRUCKS AND E LOCAL TRUCKS TAKE THE GOODS TO FINAL DESTINATIONS.
U LOAD YOUR FOREIGN SEMI TRAILERS WITH CARGO AND E SEMI TRAILERS WILL COME TO BEIRUT ON ROLL ON ROLL F VESSELS THEN WE TAKE THE FOREIGN SEMI TRAILERS AND W THEM WITH OUR LOCAL TRACTORS TO ANY DESTINATION U WANT. WE REQUIRE AFTER THE ARRIVAL OF THE VESSEL E PLATE NUMBER AND CONTENTS OF THE SEMI TRAILER.
U SHOULD DECLARE ON THE MANIFEST OF THE SHIP RRYING THE SEMI TRAILER THE EMPTY WEIGHT OF THE VII TRAILER ON ONE LINE, ITS CONTENTS AND NUMBER OF CKAGES AND DESCRIPTION ON THE NEXT LINE. YOU SHOULD ATE ON THE MANIFEST THAT THE GOODS ARE DESTINED TO !RUT FREE ZONE IN TRANSIT TO THE FINAL DESTINATION AND AT THE GOODS HAVE TO BE FORWARDED FROM BEIRUT.
E THERE ANY FOREIGN VEHICLES DETAINED IN BEIRUT CAUSE OF PERMIT DIFFICULTIES?
ERE ARE FOREIGN TRUCKS DETAINED IN BEIRUT BECAUSE OF iMIT DIFFICULTIES BECAUSE ACCORDING TO THE ARAB ANSIT AGREEMENT ONLY ARAB TRUCKS ARE PERMITTED TO AD FROM ONE ARAB PORT TO ANOTHER BUT WE ARE TTING SPECIAL PERMITS FOR FOREIGN SEMI TRAILERS. IN DER TO SAVE TIME AND MONEY DO NOT SEND TRACTORS TH DRIVERS AS YOU WILL DO IT FOR THE FIRST TIME AND U WILL NEVER REPEAT IT. WE RECOMMEND THE ABOVE XEDURE.
10 ISSUES PERMITS AND HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
PERMITS ARE ISSUED FOR FOREIGN TRUCKS THEY ISSUE LY FOR SEMI TRAILERS TO BE TOWED BY LOCAL TRUCKS. E CUSTOMS AUTHORITIES AND THE TRAFFIC AUTHORITIES UE SUCH PERMITS AND IT WILL TAKE ABOUT THREE DAYS DO THAT.
