LHZ-TIR Middle East Trucking Iraq Special Line: China to Iraq TIR Truck Transport, including Iraq import customs clearance, 15-18 days, 1,200 self-owned vehicles

Iraq is an important trading partner of China in the Middle East. The post-war reconstruction market has enormous potential. Chinas exports to Iraq include construction materials, machinery, electronics, daily consumer goods, auto parts, and humanitarian supplies. Bilateral trade between China and Iraq exceeded 20 billion USD in 2025. China is Iraq largest trading partner. Traditional sea freight via Umm Qasr Port takes 30-40 days with unstable transit times. Is there a door-to-door, time-definite, flexible, and efficient TIR truck transport solution designed specifically for the Iraqi market? LHZ-TIR Middle East Trucking Iraq Special Line is a secondary brand under LHZ-TIR Middle East Trucking focused on the Iraqi market, covering Baghdad, Basra, Erbil, Mosul, Najaf, Karbala, and all of Iraq. LHZ-TIR is a pioneer and early entrant in Chinas TIR trucking sector. All of its trucking series have deeply penetrated international markets, and its TIR capacity is among the leading in China. Supported by LHZ-TIR 1,200 self-owned and contracted TIR vehicles distributed across six nodes: China, Kazakhstan, Turkey, Russia, Belarus, Germany, all with local licenses. Based on customer requirements, distance, and route economics, we flexibly select the optimal solution: prioritizing physical straight-line direct delivery. At Chinese borders, cargo is loaded directly onto Turkish-licensed TIR trucks, transiting through Kazakhstan, Caspian Sea ferry, and the Caucasus into Turkey, with the same Turkish TIR truck continuing through Iran into Iraq. When geopolitical risks (Iran sanctions, Kazakhstan secondary sanctions) or congestion need to be avoided, alternative routes are deployed. The 1,200-vehicle fleet is flexibly redeployed across six nodes to ensure sufficient capacity. Supported by 100,000 sqm self-owned bonded warehouses in Alashankou, Khorgos, and Kashgar, Xinjiang, we provide full truckload TIR truck transport from China to Iraq.
