The Saudi General Authority of Customs confirmed the smooth flow of Syrian exports through Saudi ports to the local markets, indicating that trucks coming from Syria have entered according to the approved regulations and in line with the customs procedures. In remarks to Asharq Al-Awsat, the Customs Authority said that Al Haditha crossing, which is located on the northern borders of the Kingdom, saw the passage of more than 688 trucks from August 2016 until the end of last October, loaded with goods from Syria, while more than 799 trucks left Saudi territory during the same period. There is no specific mechanism or procedure for Syrian trucks, Customs officials said. The same procedures and regulations are applied for all exporting countries.
