New TIR Green Lanes have opened at China’s Erenhot border crossing, significantly accelerating the transport of goods.
TIR Green Lanes are now operational on both sides of the strategic Erenhot–Zamiin-Uud border crossing between China and Mongolia.
IRU and its member the China Road Transport Association (CRTA) took part in the inauguration ceremony and, together with Hohhot and Erenhot customs, conducted a specialised TIR workshop for local companies to support the expansion of streamlined TIR services at this vital border crossing.
TIR Green Lanes on both sides of the border are an example of harmonisation best practices and the streamlining of secure transit.
IRU Chief Representative for East and Southeast Asia Ran Wang said, “Strengthening dialogue and collaboration with authorities and local partners is key to operational success.
“The new TIR Green Lanes at Erenhot are a direct result of these engagements, ensuring smoother processes and providing benefits for local companies relying on this crucial corridor.”
The establishment of TIR Green Lanes forms part of IRU’s ongoing efforts to advance trade facilitation at strategic border crossings along major international corridors.
Working closely with members, customs authorities and international institutions, IRU has helped implement similar measures in a number of countries.
