Decline in Iran’s Transit Importance for Turkey
TEHRAN - Fatemeh Ghanbarpour, Vice President of the Transport, Transit, and Logistics Commission at the Iranian Chamber of Commerce, told ILNA about ongoing efforts to prevent the suspension of Iran’s Green Card membership. She stated: "Iran Insurance is a member of the COB convention, and reinsurance processes are underway. Since reinsurance operates as an insurance company linked to the COB, which is an international body overseeing the Green Card insurance system based in Brussels, we are striving to have the Iranian Chamber of Commerce introduced as the guarantor to the COB. This would place Green Card insurance under the chamber’s umbrella, similar to what happened with the TIR carnet system."
