Under the United Nations International Road Transport Convention, Pakistan and China have started exchanging cargo movement through road. The first convoy of cargo trucks is on its way from China to Pakistan, under the collaboration between National Logistics Corporation of Pakistan and CEVA Logistics.
This important development took place on the occasion of the 10 anniversary of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor project. A ceremony was held at Kashgar Yuanfang International Logistics Port Company for the official launch of the TIR service that runs from Kashgar to Islamabad. The project will provide an efficient and safe land route to connect the landlocked Central Asian states. Thanks to simplified and coordinated customs procedures at the borders, the cross-border movement of TIR goods will be possible faster and more safely.
