We handle all types of shipments bound for Afghanistan, including International Security Assistance Forces (ISAF) Cargo, Aid Cargo, Diplomatic Consignments and Commercial Cargo. As we have the experience and know this market hence our services for Afghanistan are fast, efficient and economical.

Pakistan’s natural strategic location offers the shortest route to all land locked markets up north, including Afghanistan.Pakistan has three warm water ports – Karachi Port , Port Qasim and Gawader which interact with ships and goods from far and near. Gwadar Port is going to be in operation soon.

Due to the ongoing political and economic situation in Afghanistan, relief cargo, charitable donations, supplies for the US Army and for ISAF Forces and Commercial Cargoes are being consigned to Afghanistan.

DLL has carried out research on the different transport possibilities.We can arrange in-transit movement for Kabul, Khandhar, Mazar-e-Sharif, Herat, Jalalabad and Bagram. Besides inland transport, we can arrange pick-up from any point of origin through our worldwide Associates.

As Afghanistan is rebuilding, the trade and logistics possibilities are tremendous.It should, however, be kept in mind that there is no proper infrastructure available over there.Road Freight sector is not properly organized and is under-development; services being offered by the private goods transport companies are not reliable, while transit time is substantial.

Presently there is only one commercial venture of Pakistan Army known as National Logistics Cell which carries Afghan transit goods other than Government owned Pakistan Railways' discretionary rights to move commercial cargo under Ttransit Trade Agreement.Pakistan Railways, however, only haul the consignments from Karachi to Peshawar and outsource arrangements for onward journey.

There are various categories given below under which Afghan Transit Cargo is classified:

1. Commercial Cargo is moved to its destination under the Afghan Transit Trade Agreement.
2. Non-Commercial Cargo is moved under Pakistan Customs General Order # 12 and covers consignments for coalition forces through their suppliers.
3. Logistical Support Cargo is for the US Forces under US Diplomatic Previlage.
4. Reconstruction & Government Assistance Cargo includes Relief Cargo and Reconstruction Matterial.Movement under NGO's Government Assistance, Donations and Aid come under this category.

The specific formalities for each have to be followed carefully to ensure smooth processing. Please note that no insurance company is prepared to provide Transit Comprehensive Insurance Coverage, hence the consignment if entrusted to an organization like DLL will minimize the impact of any uncertain events.

In the above stated scenario, the prospective user must rely on a local partner that has in-depth knowledge and resources to overcome the bottlenecks. Here you can rely on DLL as a trustworthy partner having presence in the market and is familiar with both Pakistan & Afghanistan.
