Transit time significantly shortened


India and Iran have successfully concluded the first pilot of a fully digital intermodal TIR transport, the International Road Transport Union (IRU) reported. The container was released less than a day after arriving in Iran’s Bandar Abbas port, which would have otherwise taken up to five days. The container was shipped along the international north-south transport corridor.

 

The pilot project demonstrated the efficiency of a fully intermodal TIR transport, IRU added. An electronic guarantee was issued instead of a TIR carnet, and all messages, such as the pre-declaration, were exchanged electronically in advance with relevant public and private actors, including customs authorities, which expedited the customs and port procedures.
