Turkish logistics company DMN Lojistik has successfully delivered a shipment of goods from Gaziantep, Türkiye, to Amman, Jordan, using Iraq as a transit route under the United Nations-backed TIR system.
According to a press release from the International Road Transport Union (IRU), the eight-truck convoy completed the journey in under five days, demonstrating the efficiency and security of Iraq's newly opened TIR corridors.
It adds that since Iraq opened its borders for TIR transit earlier this year, transport operators have reported significant time and cost savings compared to maritime or multi-modal alternatives.
DMN Lojistik General Manager Serdar Duman said the new route strengthens the company's commitment to expanding opportunities while ensuring safe and reliable delivery.
The TIR system, managed by the IRU, allows goods to travel across international borders in sealed compartments, reducing delays and costs for transporters and customs authorities alike.
