Road transport: tariffs on the rise and the end of the "ruble per kilometer" era?

What pricing formulas should be used to ensure businesses are prepared for both tariff records and rollbacks?

The Russian freight transportation market finds itself in a paradoxical situation. On the one hand, demand is growing steadily: according to PEC data for September 2025, it increased by 7%, while the ATrucks indicator shows a persistent imbalance in favor of carriers. Traditional seasonal factors and the reduction in the key rate have whetted retail appetites. However, the main driver of growth is a shock—the mass return of equipment to lessors. More than 30,000 vehicles have already been repossessed, and approximately 10,000 more are at risk. This has created an artificial capacity shortage, pushing the market from a deep surplus into a transport affordability crisis.

And it's precisely at this moment, as the industry struggles to find a delicate balance, that it is hit with a "triple whammy" of regulatory changes planned for 2026. Starting March 1, only those who successfully register with the Unified Electronic Register of Carriers and Forwarders on the GosLog platform will be able to operate legally. Simultaneously, the patent tax system for freight transportation is planned to be completely abolished starting January 1, which will impact hundreds of thousands of small businesses and self-employed drivers.

In this regard, Logirus decided to find out:

• Will the fuel shock and shortage of carriers trigger a long-awaited recovery in tariffs, or is the announced increase just a seasonal blip?

• How will the transition from the patent system to the general taxation system affect tariffs?

• And what new approaches to pricing are carriers forced to look for?

Dmitry Chernyshenko: The National Abilympics Championship will be held in Moscow.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

The Abilympics National Championship kicks off in Moscow on October 30. Competitors from three age categories will participate: schoolchildren, students, and professionals. Participants with severe and/or multiple disabilities will also participate as part of the Festival of Opportunities. In 2025, the Abilympics National Championship will be held under the motto "No Limits – Act Boldly!"

"The Abilympics championship, held as part of the national project 'Youth and Children,' launched at the direction of the President, has been proving for over 10 years that professional development is accessible to everyone. The finals in Moscow will bring together both young and experienced professionals, who will demonstrate their skills in 50 competencies from 18 economic sectors. These include education, IT, industrial professions, and much more. Importantly, the national championship will also include competitions for representatives of our friendly countries and, for the first time, a finals competition for professional skills among participants of the North-Eastern Military District," emphasized Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko.

The Timiryazev Center Educational and Exhibition Complex will serve as the main venue for the events, presenting 48 competencies. Competitions in two additional competencies will be held at additional Moscow venues: the Ovchinnikov Polytechnic College and the "Professions of the Future" practical training center. The championship will also feature competitions in 12 presentation competencies. Approximately 290 experts from 54 Russian regions will participate in the judging.

For the first time, the Abilympics National Championship will include the finals of the professional skills championship among participants of the Abilympics special military operation. The competition will be held in 15 competencies among 79 participants from 38 Russian regions who demonstrated the best results in the qualifying round of the professional skills championship among participants of the Abilympics special military operation in Kazan (Republic of Tatarstan) from July 25–29, 2025.

"The Russian Ministry of Education places particular importance on developing the Abilympics movement and supporting the national championship—one of the country's largest and most important social projects. The project unlocks the potential of thousands of people with disabilities, helping them realize their potential professionally and integrate into society. Crucially, Abilympics is a comprehensive ecosystem that encompasses various rehabilitation programs for people with disabilities. The championship becomes a true growth hub for each participant, opening up new professional horizons and helping them build successful career paths," commented Minister of Education Sergey Kravtsov.

The championship will feature open competitions in eight key competencies with the participation of representatives from friendly countries, including those within the BRICS group.

In 2025, the Festival of Regional Competencies will be held for the first time – master classes reflecting the industry and ethnocultural characteristics of 13 Russian regions.

A Festival of Opportunities will be organized for people with severe and/or multiple developmental disabilities. It will include competitions in 19 competencies and will bring together participants from 13 regions.

A comprehensive career guidance program awaits championship guests: a career discovery festival for children aged 6 to 13, professional tryouts, a job fair, and consultation sessions from Abilympics partners and federal agencies, as well as programs for entrepreneurs and self-employed Abilympics and SVO participants.

The exhibition will showcase the latest domestic technical rehabilitation equipment and offer consultations from all-Russian public organizations for people with disabilities, the state fund for supporting participants of the "Defenders of the Fatherland" volunteer military unit, and booths from the ArtMasters project, the Russian "Knowledge" Society, the "National Priorities of Russia" NGO, the Russian Children's and Youth Movement "Movement of the First," and others.

The cultural program was prepared with the support of the Russian Ministry of Culture and the Moscow Department of Culture.

Participants will also enjoy various sporting events, including volleyball competitions, wheelchair dance competitions, adaptive tennis master classes, a chess tournament, and classes from specialists from the Moscow State University of Sport and Tourism.

In addition, the championship will also include the summing up of competition results in a number of competencies, including "Nail Service," "Performance Skills (Vocals)," "Welding Technologies," "Tailor," and others.

Winners of the national Abilympics championship receive social support for the purchase of specialized technical rehabilitation equipment and additional education using electronic certificates.

Gaza, October 21 (Xinhua) — The Gaza Strip's health authority announced on Tuesday that it received 15 more bodies of Palestinians from Israel through the International Committee of the Red Cross, bringing the total number of bodies returned since the ceasefire to 165.

According to Munir al-Bursh, Director General of the Palestinian Enclave's Health Authority, medical teams will examine the bodies and complete the necessary paperwork before handing them over to relatives.

WFP calls for greater access to Gaza to boost food aid deliveries

Geneva, October 21 (Xinhua) — The ceasefire in the Gaza Strip has allowed UN humanitarian agencies to provide food to more people, but greater access to the Palestinian enclave is needed to end the famine, said Abir Etefa, Senior Regional Communications Officer and Spokesperson for the UN World Food Programme (WFP), in Geneva on Tuesday.

As A. Etefa noted, since October 11, when the ceasefire began, WFP has delivered more than 6,700 metric tons of food to Gaza, enough to feed nearly half a million people for two weeks.

"Daily deliveries continue and currently average approximately 750 tonnes," she said, adding that this volume remains significantly below the WFP target of 2,000 tonnes per day. "Unless all entry points are operational, achieving this goal will be nearly impossible," the official emphasized.

Currently, only the Kerem Shalom and Kissufim crossings in the southern Gaza Strip are open. Access to the northern part of the enclave, where a famine was declared in August, remains blocked by severe damage.

Ensuring access for large convoys into northern Gaza is a priority. "We have carried out extensive road clearing in the northern direction," said A. Etefa, "but we need to open other crossings to reach Gaza City, where the situation is particularly dire."

WFP is also assisting the most food-insecure households through digital payments, enabling approximately 140,000 people to purchase food locally, with plans to soon double the number of beneficiaries. A. Etefa emphasized that humanitarian aid alone cannot resolve the crisis, and commercial supplies must complement relief efforts.

Only a fully implemented and sustainable ceasefire can allow the WFP to operate at the required scale, concluded A. Etefa. –0–

Moscow, October 21 /Xinhua/ — Russia is open to honest dialogue and mutually beneficial trade, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said at the plenary session of the International Export Forum "Made in Russia."

"We are open to honest dialogue and mutually beneficial trade. We certainly have much to offer our international partners," the head of the Russian government noted.

M. Mishustin emphasized that the main goal of exports is to modernize industries, increase efficiency, and create jobs. He stated that despite sanctions, non-resource exports accounted for over 12% of GDP in the first half of 2025, and the share of the ruble in transactions exceeded 50%, strengthening the economy and stimulating investment. Demand for Russian products remains strong, and there is a shift toward the markets of the Eurasian Economic Union, the Commonwealth of Independent States, BRICS, and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

The Russian Prime Minister noted that products from Russian manufacturers are purchased not only by traditional partners but also by countries classified as "unfriendly" states. In the first six months of this year alone, these countries purchased Russian goods worth over $25.5 billion.

On October 21, the 13th International Export Forum “Made in Russia” was held in Moscow. This annual event for Russian exporters has been held since 2012. –0–
