FCL Shipping from China to Afghanistan
Dispite there are no seaports in Afghanistan since it is a inland country, it doens’t mean there are no container service from China to Afghanistan. As an alternative, carriers and forwarders can support the multimodle transport. Normally, ocean shipments transit via Karachi Pakistan or Bandar Abbas Iran, then truck to Afghanistan container yard or station.
Just FreightPaul don’t serve container shipping to Afghanistan by sea or truck or railway. We don’t have advantage actually.
But we can provide a rough cost in case importers need it urgently, please contact FreighPaul Team.
