The Ministry of Commerce in Pakistan has enacted the 'Transit of Goods through Territory of Pakistan Order 2026,' designating six specific land routes for the transit of goods from third countries to Iran. This decision comes as over 3,000 containers bound for Iran remain stuck at Karachi port due to the ongoing blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The newly established routes include corridors linking Gwadar, Karachi, and Port Qasim to the Gabd and Taftan border points, facilitating the movement of cargo amidst regional disruptions.
