BAKU, Azerbaijan, September 4. Product exports through Parviz Khan customs in the western Kermanshah Province of Iran picked up by 23 percent in value and three percent in weight during the five months of the current Iranian year (from March 21 through August 22, 2025) compared to the same period last year (from March 20 through August 21, 2024), Hojatollah Chavoshi, the customs' director, told local media, Trend reports.
As per his analysis, a substantial volume of 834,000 metric tons
of diverse commodities—including cement, agricultural produce,
water treatment agents, fittings, construction supplies, and
rubber—valued at an impressive $356 million, was transacted for
export to Iraq via the Parviz Khan customs facility over a
five-month period.
The official indicated that a daily throughput of approximately 223
freight vehicles transits the Parviz Khan customs facility. This
customs facility is recognized as a pivotal nexus for the
facilitation of non-hydrocarbon export operations to the Iraqi
market.
It is imperative to highlight that the analytics derived from the
Iranian Customs Administration indicate that within the initial
quintet of months of the ongoing Iranian fiscal year, the non-oil
import metrics reached a volume of 15.2 million tons, translating
to a monetary valuation of $23 billion. This reflects a decrement
of 16.3 percent in fiscal value and a reduction of 5.4 percent in
physical weight relative to the corresponding timeframe of the
preceding year.
