The TIO certificate issued by the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure authorizes logistics companies and individuals who want to provide safe transportation services to do business.

In addition, the R1 and R2 approval documents previously valid in highway logistics can be renewed by replacing them with the TIO authorization certificate. The validity period of the received TIO document corresponds to the validity period of the converted R1 and R2 documents. Again, the DD certificate issued in accordance with the Railway Management Authorization Regulation can also be converted into a TIO document. On the other hand, within the scope of the TIO regulation, it is considered essential for individuals and companies engaged in transportation by sea and air to obtain a TIO certificate from the ministry.
