BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 20. Uzbekistan-based cargo airline My Freighter has received approval to operate cargo flights to the United Kingdom after being designated an ACC3 carrier by the UK Department for Transport, the company said on October 14.

This was reflected in the statement by My Freighter.

The designation confirms that the airline’s cargo security procedures meet UK aviation security requirements for transporting freight from airports outside the country.

ACC3 status is mandatory for airlines carrying cargo and mail into the United Kingdom from third-country airports. It requires carriers to ensure that shipments undergo security screening in accordance with UK standards before departure.

The approval will allow My Freighter to offer cargo transportation services between Tashkent and the UK, providing shippers and freight forwarders in Uzbekistan and the wider region with another route to the British market.

The company, part of Centrum Holding, said flights to the United Kingdom would begin soon, with the schedule to be announced separately.

My Freighter specializes in air cargo transportation and operates from Uzbekistan as part of Centrum Holding’s logistics and aviation business. The company has been developing its international route network to connect markets in Asia and Europe.

The ACC3 designation marks a regulatory step toward expanding the airline’s operations in the UK market. The company has not yet announced the launch date, flight frequency or destinations in the United Kingdom.
