1st Shipment of Imported Hybrid Vehicles Arrives on Iran’s Qeshm Island

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The first shipment of imported hybrid cars has arrived on Iran’s Qeshm Island, the director of the customs office of Qeshm Free Zone Organization (QFZO) said.

Speaking to reporters, Amir Ali Davood stated that all the imported vehicles are brand new models, adding that some of the imported cars (including Toyota Corolla, different models of Mercedes-Benz, Toyota SHR, Toyota Camry, Lexus (UX) and 18 models of vans) will be used in the public transportation fleet.

The customs clearance and plate numbering of the imported cars started shortly after these cars were imported to Qeshm Free Zone by one of a reliable import and export company, he stated.

Under the agreement inked in March 2024 between Qeshm and Kish free zones and this import-export company, some of these cars will be supplied by this company at Kish Free Zone, he said, adding that talks are underway with other free zones of the country for the supply of these cars.

All necessary licenses have been received from the National Institute of Standards and Industrial Research of Iran (ISIRI) and the Department of Environment (DoE) and the imported cars meet requirements of the international CCC and GCC standards, he added.

The next shipments of the imported cars will arrive in Qeshm Free Zone in the coming days, Davood added.
