Taking into account the need to provide better services in public transport, in order to ensure the uninterrupted passenger transportation and achieve the goals established by the state program to improve transport infrastructure in the city of Baku and in the adjacent territories in 2025-2030, a decision was made on regulation of tariffs and new tariffs were approved.

These tariffs will enter into force on October 1, 2025. New tariffs will be used in route buses on electricity or compressed natural gas (CNG), plying within the administrative boundaries of the city of Baku, in the suburbs and between the villages, where the fare is paid only on the basis of non -cash instruments.
At the first stage, about 30% of the corresponding requirements of the capital network of the capital will be affected. On routes that do not meet the criteria, the tariffs will remain the same.

In addition, the transition of carriers to non -cash payment systems will be stimulated, on the basis of which conditions will be created for the formation of the technical capabilities of the use of differentiated tariffs for passenger transportation, the ministry said in a statement.
