CargoIranTruck starts after the cargo is staged in Xinjiang, not at a factory dock in eastern China. Starting in Xinjiang names the two corridors; this page is the exit choice after staging.

Stage first, then the exit

Cargo consolidates at the origin hub — or a supervised yard at the exit — and then leaves through Wuqia or Khorgos. Two corridors are on sale: Wuqia Xinjiang → Kyrgyzstan → Uzbekistan → Turkmenistan → Iran; Khorgos Xinjiang → Kazakhstan → Uzbekistan → Turkmenistan → Iran. Torugart and Alashankou are not operated.

Drop in transit or run to Iran customs

Write this in the enquiry before the exit is chosen: does the lot drop in a transit country, or does it run to Iran customs? For Iran, the sellable destinations are Mashhad Customs and Tehran West Customs. Entry is Sarakhs. The buyer clears. Hub to customs, CPT / DAP. Not door-to-door, not DDP. For a mid-corridor drop, name the yard. No destination, no written quote.

What changes at Wuqia vs Khorgos

Wuqia goes through Kyrgyzstan and carries a 0.4% transit tax — a tax, not freight; not in the quote; paid separately. Khorgos goes through Kazakhstan and does not add that 0.4%. The tax base is not stated on the page.

Published days are Wuqia from the border only, currently Mashhad 18–21 direct / 24–28 transshipment and Tehran 21–23 direct / 26–30 transshipment. Current operating range, not a guarantee. No Khorgos day count. Curtainsider, not a container. No rates on the page.
