WUQIA
Wuqia to Iran: direct truck or transshipment
The Wuqia corridor is sold as two movements, not one number. Both run Xinjiang → Kyrgyzstan → Uzbekistan → Turkmenistan → Iran, and finish at the destination yard. The difference is how often the cargo is transshipped.
- Direct: Wuqia → Bukhara (one transshipment) → Iran
- Transshipment: Wuqia → Osh (transshipment) → Bukhara (transshipment) → Iran; or at the Iranian border
- Warehouse / yard to destination yard; no door-to-door, no DDP
- The buyer clears in Iran at Sarakhs or Lotfabad
One corridor, two movements
Equipment is a tilt / curtain-side trailer, not a container. TIR means a seal at origin plus one carnet. Fewer openings and truck changes — not none. It does not change transit time or freight.
