* Bilateral permit for Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan authorizes for both freight transport and occasional passenger traffic.

** Kosovo is not a contracting party in the Interbus agreement but allows passenger transport carried out with the Interbus journey forms.

CEMT permit is not required for transport within the European community. Within the community's area the Community licence is sufficient.

If you are using a CEMT permit you do not need a bilateral permit or third-country permit and vice versa.
