Azerbaijani trucks have successfully completed the first-ever direct cargo delivery from China to Azerbaijan, Report informs, citing Azerbaijan Land Transport Agency under the Digital Development and Transport Ministry.

Cargo transportation primarily occurred within neighboring countries, involving loading from one country’s vehicle to another’s.

In 2024, Azerbaijan and China exchanged “permission” forms to facilitate international cargo transportation by road. As a result, the geography of Azerbaijani carriers’ road transport for cargo has expanded, covering 51 countries.
