LHZ-TIR Central Asia Trucking Tajikistan Route – 3,300 Vehicles Delivered to Dushanbe via Kalasu Port

In 2026, the LHZ-TIR Central Asia Trucking Tajikistan vehicle carrier route completed a landmark project of 3,300 vehicles exported to Tajikistan, departing from the Kashgar hub through Kalasu Port, the only land port between China and Tajikistan, reaching Dushanbe, Khujand, and other major cities in 6 to 10 days, with Tajikistan import customs clearance included.

Tajikistan is one of the fastest-growing vehicle import markets in Central Asia. From January to June 2026, Tajikistan imported approximately 31,900 passenger vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 5.6 percent, with total import value reaching $350.3 million. Among these, South Korea ranked first with 11,256 units, while China ranked second with 9,386 units valued at approximately $140 million. During the same period, Tajikistan imported 7,069 electric vehicles, accounting for 22.2 percent of total passenger vehicle imports, of which 6,875 came from China, representing 97.3 percent of total EV imports. Tajikistan has no domestic vehicle manufacturing capacity and is a completely import-dependent automotive consumer market. The 3,300-vehicle transport project is a direct response to the deepening demand of Chinese brands in the Tajikistan market.

Karasu Port served as the strategic hub for this large-scale transport project. Located in Tashkurgan Tajik Autonomous County on the Pamir Plateau, Karasu Port is the only land transport corridor between China and Tajikistan. In recent years, vehicle exports through Karasu Port have achieved a triple jump: exceeding 5,100 units in 2023, surging to over 18,000 units in 2024, and reaching over 24,000 units in 2025, a year-on-year increase of 29.7 percent. The vehicles were transported by 300 Kazakhstan-plated specialized car-carrier trailers, each capable of loading 8 passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, or new energy vehicles. Karasu Port has opened dedicated lanes for vehicle exports, reducing clearance time from 9 minutes to 4 minutes. LHZ-TIR operates a 100,000-square-meter self-operated supervised warehouse in Kashgar and Karasu Port, equipped with a TIR customs clearance center and vehicle dispatch center, providing one-stop port services from vehicle consolidation and compliance inspection to TIR documentation and customs clearance.

LHZ-TIR is the core logistics brand under LHZ Global Holding Group, operating 1,500 owned and partnered TIR vehicles distributed across six key nodes in China, Kazakhstan, Turkey, Russia, Belarus, and Germany, all with local registration, of which 300 are specialized car-carrier trailers, forming a spider-web capacity network covering Eurasia.
