Khazaen Port and Suhar Linked by Customs Corridor: What This Means for Business Efficiency and Trade in Oman
MUSCAT: Khazaen Dry Port, a key facility under the Asyad Group, has been officially designated as a terminal for receiving containers from international ports. In conjunction with this, it has established a secure customs corridor with SOHAR Port and Freezone, aimed at enhancing integration within Oman’s port network and improving supply chain efficiency.
This new corridor represents a significant advancement in streamlining the import, export, and re-export processes for the private sector. It will enable traders and investors to move goods more seamlessly within a secure customs framework, thereby reducing operational costs, enhancing logistics performance, and providing Omani businesses with easier access to global markets.
The initiative incorporates a state-of-the-art customs system that allows for clearance from a single location at Khazaen Dry Port. This system leverages a shipping agent’s lead instead of traditional sealing and the acceptance of written guarantees, resulting in considerable time savings and a smoother user experience.
This development underscores Asyad Group’s dedication to facilitating cross-border trade and adopting global best practices, thus supporting the growth of Oman’s commercial and logistics sectors.
Saad Bait Naseeb, CEO of Khazaen Dry Port, described the project as a milestone for Oman’s logistics landscape, enhancing both efficiency and reliability for investors. He emphasized that the port reinforces Oman’s strategic position as a vital trade gateway connecting the region to the world.
Naseeb also highlighted Khazaen Dry Port’s ongoing commitment to deploying advanced solutions that align with Oman Vision 2040, fostering new opportunities for trade and investment growth. — ONA
