Against the backdrop of deep alignment between China's Belt and Road Initiative and Tajikistan's National Development Strategy up to 2030, economic and trade cooperation between China and Tajikistan is ushering in historic development opportunities. As an important strategic pivot country in Central Asia, Tajikistan serves not only as a natural bridge connecting China with Central Asia and South Asia but also as a crucial channel for Chinese goods to access the Central Asian market and reach neighboring countries such as Afghanistan and Pakistan. In recent years, with the comprehensive advancement of cooperation between China and Tajikistan in energy and power, mineral development, and transportation infrastructure, the demand for transporting oversized and heavy-dimensional cargo, particularly hydropower station equipment, mining machinery, and power transmission facilities, has continued to grow rapidly. Faced with the practical challenges posed by Tajikistan's mountainous terrain constraining traditional transport, limited railway capacity unable to cover remote project sites, and prohibitively high air freight costs for large equipment, leveraging fifteen years of specialized experience in Central Asian mountain transportation, we officially launch the China-Tajikistan Oversized and Heavy-Dimensional Cargo TIR Trucking Service. We are dedicated to establishing an overland transportation lifeline that adapts to complex terrain, is safe, reliable, highly efficient, and professional, providing solid logistical support for economic and trade cooperation between the two nations.
The continued deepening of the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Tajikistan creates favorable conditions for the operation of this dedicated service. As a friendly neighbor to China in Central Asia, Tajikistan is vigorously promoting energy independence and industrialization, which naturally complements China's technological and equipment advantages in power construction, mining development, and related fields. From the Rogun Hydropower Plant and the Dushanbe thermal power plant to nationwide power transmission network construction, advanced equipment manufactured in China plays a foundational role in Tajikistan's socioeconomic development. Concurrently, distinctive Tajik products such as high-quality aluminum ingots, agricultural goods, and mineral products are steadily transported to the Chinese market via overland routes. The full connection of this service precisely aligns with the peak period of Tajikistan's infrastructure construction and the urgent needs of China-Tajikistan production capacity cooperation, offering enterprises of both countries a mature logistics solution validated through fifteen years of high-altitude mountain transportation.
The core advantage of this service lies in fully leveraging the standardized operational mechanism of the TIR international road transport system to achieve efficient direct transportation between China and Tajikistan. The TIR Convention, as an internationally recognized cross-border transport assurance system, provides our fleets with transit guarantee tested through the complex road conditions of the Pamir Plateau. After transport vehicles are sealed by customs at the Chinese ports of Kashgar, Alashankou, and Khorgos, they travel through Kyrgyzstan or Uzbekistan directly to various project sites within Tajikistan, enjoying efficient and convenient customs clearance services under the TIR system framework. This point-to-point direct transport model overcomes the multiple transshipments and complex terrain obstacles typical of traditional cross-border transport, improving overall transit efficiency by approximately sixty percent compared to conventional methods. We have established an adaptive logistics network covering the entire territory of Tajikistan, with direct routes from Chinese manufacturing bases to major economic centers such as Dushanbe, Khujand, and Khorog. Simultaneously, we have built a comprehensive system for organizing return cargo, forming a two-way circular sustainable logistics channel.
At the three strategic hubs of Kashgar, Alashankou, and Khorgos in Xinjiang, we have established a self-operated system tested through fifteen years of high-altitude transportation. These port bases are not only key nodes in the China-Tajikistan logistics corridor but also integrated support platforms combining functions such as maintenance of mountain transport equipment, storage of special cargo, and cross-border clearance services. We possess a professional customs clearance team with fifteen years of familiarity with the Pamir terrain, proficient in the customs regulations, technical standards, and special cargo transport specifications of China, Tajikistan, and transit countries. We can provide clients with customized clearance solutions adapted to the characteristics of mountain transportation. Particularly in handling clearance procedures for cargo such as large hydropower equipment, special engineering machinery, and precision instruments, we have accumulated extensive high-altitude transportation experience, ensuring the safe and efficient clearance of all types of complex goods.
Our invested and operational one hundred thousand square meter modern warehousing park, having undergone continuous upgrades and improvements over fifteen years, has specially added a dedicated storage zone for special cargo in high-altitude areas. The storage area is divided into five functional sections according to international standards: general cargo storage, constant temperature and humidity storage, dedicated dangerous goods storage, customs bonded warehouses, and specialized yards for oversized equipment. It is equipped with an intelligent management system adapted to plateau climate conditions. Here, goods can enjoy customized services such as professional warehousing management, shockproof and moisture-proof packaging, special reinforcement treatment, and pre-inspection maintenance, providing clients with supply chain solutions suited to high-altitude transport environments. To address the specific needs of mountainous projects in Tajikistan, we also offer professional services including full-process management for project logistics, mountain transport technology consulting, and expedited channels for emergency supplies.
We provide full-process China-Tajikistan double customs clearance services based on fifteen years of high-altitude transportation experience. Leveraging in-depth research into Tajikistan's customs system and mountain trade policies, as well as long-term cooperative relationships established with local customs authorities, we can offer clients efficient and compliant clearance solutions. Whether for regular trade commodities, engineering project equipment, or special supplies, we provide full-chain professional services from document preparation and tax optimization to expedited release. We have established stable communication mechanisms with customs authorities at various ports in Tajikistan, enabling us to promptly coordinate and resolve special issues during the high-altitude transport clearance process, ensuring the safe and timely delivery of goods.
We have achieved normalized operations with seven weekly departures, operating year-round without interruption, establishing a stable transportation system tested under the complex road conditions of the Pamir Plateau. The high-altitude transport database accumulated over fifteen years provides clients with precise and reliable logistics planning assurance, allowing enterprises to optimize transport arrangements based on seasonal changes and road condition characteristics. All transport vehicles are equipped with enhanced BeiDou and GPS dual-mode positioning systems, high-altitude adaptive monitoring devices, and intelligent electronic seal devices. Clients can access real-time full-journey monitoring data on cargo location, altitude, road conditions, and more through a dedicated digital platform. For high-altitude precision equipment and sensitive goods, we provide special assurance services including constant-pressure oxygenated transport environments, shockproof and moisture-proof packaging, and full-journey escort by professional technical personnel.
In the technical field of oversized and heavy-dimensional cargo transportation, we possess mature solutions accumulated over fifteen years of high-altitude transport.
