Transit & international transport

Rail, road and multimodal, with optimised routing.

Scope

Incheh Borun is one of the Iran–Turkmenistan rail crossings and the southern gateway of the Kazakhstan–Turkmenistan–Iran corridor. Routing is selected after comparing origin, destination, cargo, available services and border conditions.

Workflow

  • Rail, road, sea or multimodal route design with alternatives
  • Checks of service, capacity, tariff, wagon or truck restrictions and border schedules
  • Review of consignment note, packing list, transit permits, insurance and vehicle documents
  • Coordination of border operations and, where required, bogie exchange or transloading at the 1,520/1,435 mm gauge break
  • Status reporting and exception management to the next agreed handover

Time and cost variables

Border queues, train plans, terminal capacity, equipment, permits, quarantine, holidays, sanctions and rerouting can change an estimate.

Important

No fixed transit time or direct service is confirmed until booking and approval by every operator on the route.

Key questions before trade or transport starts

These answers are a decision framework. Each file still requires current cargo, party, document and regulatory review.

Is an HS code enough?

No. The proposed code must be checked against the technical description, material, use, composition, model and catalogue. Customs and competent authorities make the final classification and requirement decisions.

What makes an estimate usable?

Exact origin and destination, weight, dimensions, units, packing, value and currency, Incoterm, cargo-ready date, HS code, temperature or dangerous-goods status and available permits. Missing data produces only a conditional estimate.

Which documents are normally reviewed?

Proforma or invoice, packing list, contract, origin evidence, transport document and insurance, plus product-specific standards, health, quarantine, environmental or other permits where applicable.

Does a free zone mean duty-free entry into Iran?

No. Entry into the zone and commercial entry into mainland Iran are different procedures. Mainland entry may require order registration, permits, declaration, valuation, duties and taxes.

Are a direct route and transit time guaranteed?

Only after every route operator confirms the booking. Train or vessel plans, terminal capacity, border queues, holidays, weather, quarantine and inspections can change the route or timing.

How are payment and counterparties checked?

Legal identity, signing authority, registration, beneficial ownership, banks, countries, cargo and end use should be screened before commitment. Screening does not guarantee payment or performance.

Have a shipment on the way?

Send us a short description of the goods, the origin and the destination. We will come back with a proposed route and an initial estimate.
