AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
This regulation updates Turkey's vocational qualification rules for road transport professionals. Key updates include revised definitions referencing newer legislation, the creation of a specific 'SRC KURYE' certificate limited to motorcycles and mopeds for courier services, and expanded exemptions from training and exams for university graduates in logistics, international trade, and related fields. It also introduces stricter criminal record requirements for certificate issuance and detailed grounds for certificate cancellation, including specific criminal convictions differentiated by certificate type. Age-related rules now temporarily invalidate SRC certificates at age 66 unless renewed with health reports. The changes remove previous articles 9 and 9/A and update transitional provisions for experienced managers and pre-2006 drivers.
