BAKU, Azerbaijan, July 22. Azerbaijan has expanded its vehicle recycling program with the registration of a third official utilization operator, Fast Track LLC, Trend reports.
The new facility, approved by "Tamiz Sheher" Open Joint Stock Company (OJSC), will operate in the Absheron district, widening access to residents outside major hubs. Officials say the move is expected to streamline the process of retiring outdated and non-functioning vehicles.
“Citizens can now submit their vehicles for recycling not only in Baku and Ganja but also in Absheron,” the company said in a statement.
According to the Azerbaijani law, the recycling of vehicles remains voluntary. Entrepreneurs with the necessary technical capacity can apply for certification to become official recyclers. Once approved, they are added to the national registry maintained by Tamiz Sheher OJSC.
Participants must first deregister their vehicles through the state traffic authority before scheduling a drop-off via the government’s online portal, nvu.gov.az.
