We specialise in:

All shipments are handled in accordance with international freight regulations and Iranian customs requirements, including documentation such as commercial invoices, packing lists, and any applicable import permits.

Important Compliance & Restrictions

Due to UK and international sanctions, shipping to Iran is subject to strict regulatory controls. Certain goods, including military items, dual-use technology, and restricted equipment, may require export licences or may be prohibited altogether (GOV.UK).

Additionally:

• All shipments are subject to screening and approval

• Delivery may be impacted by geopolitical or operational conditions

• Customs clearance is governed by Iranian regulations and local authorities

Recent developments in the region have also affected shipping routes and logistics operations, particularly maritime transit through the Strait of Hormuz, which may cause delays or additional compliance checks.

Our Commitment

GFS Express ensures:

• Full compliance with UK export laws and international regulations

• Secure handling and monitoring of all cargo

• Professional coordination with airlines and local agents

• Up-to-date guidance on shipping restrictions and transit conditions

We continue to monitor the situation closely and remain committed to providing safe and efficient cargo services to Iran wherever operationally feasible.
