Iran exported a total of 124,737 tons of goods worth $91.6 million to Tajikistan in the last Iranian year (March 2021-22), registering a 535% and 459% rise in weight and value respectively compared with the year before, spokesperson of the Islamic Republic of Iran Customs Administration said.
The low trade turnover, despite the two countries’ high potentials, gains significance as Tajikistan’s President Emomali Rahmon arrived in Tehran on Sunday at the invitation of his Iranian counterpart, President Ebrahim Raisi, for boosting politico-economic ties.
During the same period, Rouhollah Latifi was also quoted as saying by ILNA, 14,512 tons of goods worth $39.43 million were imported from Tajikistan, registering a 263% and 439% rise in volume and value respectively compared with the previous year.
Iran mainly imported uncombed cotton and silkworm cocoons.
