CHINA TO IRAN · FEASIBILITY REVIEW
IRAN ROUTE PLANNING
Iran-related shipments require a careful feasibility assessment before transport is offered or cargo is collected. Give VG Shipping the actual goods, origin, consignee, end use and proposed receiving address. Applicable restrictions, shipment parties and carrier policies must be reviewed for the transaction. A country guide or an illustrative port image is not confirmation that a route or commodity is accepted. Do not dispatch supplier cargo on the basis of a general enquiry. Any permitted proposal must identify its lawful transport, documentation and receiving boundaries in writing.
CONDITIONAL TRANSPORT REVIEW
No transport mode is offered before the applicable transaction and carrier checks.
Sea freight can only be discussed after the goods, transaction parties and proposed routing have passed the relevant feasibility review. Do not assume FCL or LCL space is available. Supplier collection and cargo release should wait until a compliant, carrier-accepted arrangement is confirmed.

An air-cargo enquiry needs full commodity, party and end-use details before acceptance is considered. A smaller or urgent consignment does not remove restrictions. No airline, transit point or delivery service is promised before the applicable checks and written confirmation.
Read air-cargo preparationIRAN RECEIVING LOCATIONS
These are enquiry locations, not a statement of service availability.
| Receiving enquiry | Route planning question | Handover to confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Tehran receiving enquiry | Provide the real consignee, goods and intended receiving address for initial review. | Routing and onward delivery remain subject to legal and carrier acceptance. |
| Coastal receiving enquiry | Identify the proposed receiving point without assuming an available sailing or cargo channel. | Confirm all shipment parties and the intended end use before any booking decision. |
| Other Iranian addresses | Request a separate assessment with complete cargo and recipient information. | No gateway, transit arrangement or final-delivery commitment is made before review. |
DELIVERY RESPONSIBILITIES
Any delivery discussion remains conditional on lawful, carrier-accepted arrangements.
| Handover element | Information to provide | Responsibility to clarify |
|---|---|---|
| True receiver and end user | Provide the true Iranian receiving address, consignee and intended end user. Explain any intermediate recipient or onward handover accurately. The review must consider the real parties and destination rather than an incomplete delivery label. | Disclose all recipients and any onward destination. |
| Import coordination | Identify the Iran importer and the person reviewing the commercial file. | Applicable restrictions and party checks precede any offer. |
| Written offer boundaries | Only a permitted and carrier-accepted transaction can proceed. | No transit leg or relabelling can replace required checks. |
CONDITIONAL SCOPE REVIEW
An enquiry does not establish a lawful or available transport service.
Supplier consolidation is considered only after the complete transaction has been reviewed and accepted. Each factory and purchase order must remain traceable. Do not send goods to a collection warehouse until the authorised transport scope has been confirmed.
Commodity, parties, origin, end use and carrier policy must be checked before any pricing or capacity discussion.
A final address is needed for the review, but it is not a delivery commitment. Any permitted scope must be confirmed in writing.
SHIPMENT TIMELINE
Collection, booking and delivery discussions follow the required checks and written confirmation.
| Planning stage | Sea-freight review | Air-cargo review |
|---|---|---|
| Supplier readiness | No collection before acceptance. | Do not send urgent cargo before review. |
| Main international leg | No sailing or transit point is promised. | No flight or indirect routing is promised. |
| Iran receiving handover | Any permitted onward movement needs written scope. | An address is reviewed only after transaction acceptance. |
BEFORE SUPPLIER DISPATCH
Full disclosure is required before any acceptance decision.
Use accurate product descriptions, values, origin and end-use information. Identify all parties involved in supplying and receiving the goods. Relevant legal and carrier requirements must be checked; the freight enquiry is not legal clearance or permission to export.
Disclose the actual contents of every package, including components with batteries or other special handling needs. Packaging and labels must describe the cargo honestly. Repacking or consolidation must never be used to hide a product, party, origin or destination.
List every supplier and purchase order accurately. Do not dispatch goods to a warehouse until the reviewed transaction and transport scope have written acceptance.
Disclose the real contents, origin, end use and recipient. No consolidation, transit leg or alternative label is offered to conceal a restricted transaction.
CHINA-SIDE COORDINATION
Any China collection or warehouse task for an Iran-related enquiry is conditional on a prior acceptance review. A Hong Kong or other transit leg cannot be assumed to make an otherwise restricted transaction acceptable. The actual parties and end destination must remain disclosed.
ENQUIRY TO AGREED SCOPE
Provide goods, origin, values, parties, end use and the true final receiving address.
Applicable restrictions and carrier policies must be checked before transport is offered.
Do not collect or dispatch supplier goods before the lawful scope is confirmed.
Any change of goods, parties, end use or destination needs a fresh review before proceeding.

IRAN FREIGHT FAQ
This guide is not legal clearance or confirmation of an available service.
No. The page supports a feasibility enquiry only. The actual goods, shipment parties, end use, applicable restrictions and carrier acceptance must be reviewed before any route or booking commitment is made. Do not dispatch cargo without written confirmation.
Shipment size and urgency do not remove the need to review the commodity, parties and intended use. Provide complete and accurate information before asking about air or express options. No alternative labelling or indirect routing is offered to evade restrictions.
Provide the goods’ description and origin, quantities and values, supplier and recipient details, intended end use and actual final address. Disclose any intermediary or onward recipient. The review should be based on the complete transaction before collection is discussed.
No collection or dispatch date should be fixed before the complete transaction and carrier acceptance review. A permitted proposal must identify the agreed milestones and receiving scope in writing.
The images illustrate freight planning only. They do not establish service availability, a carrier arrangement or a VG facility in Iran. The actual transaction requires its own feasibility and acceptance review.
