Pakistan has formally started trade through the Pakistan-Iran Transit Corridor. Pakistan’s Directorate General of Transit Trade announced this week that it has opened a new transit corridor through Iran and through this new route Pakistan has sent the first batch of shipments to Uzbekistan.

The Directorate General said in an official statement issued on Friday (April 10, 2026) that the first batch of the shipment was filled with frozen beef, which was sent to Uzbekistan via trucks from Karachi. This new route passes through the Gabd-Rimdan border crossing located between Pakistan and Iran. It was told that this shipment will go from Rimdan in Iran to Tashkent.

There are repeated obstacles on the way to Afghanistan

Pakistan has viewed Iran as an alternative trade corridor for exports to Central Asia as traditional land routes through Afghanistan have been repeatedly disrupted. In recent months, Pakistan has closed several key border crossings due to deadly border clashes with Afghanistan, affecting bilateral trade and limiting access to the landlocked Central Asian country.

The statement said, ‘Iran Corridor will help in connecting Karachi and Gwadar ports of Pakistan with Iran and Central Asian countries.’ It also said that Pakistan Customs and Commerce Ministries are working together to promote international transshipment through Pakistani ports. It also said, ‘Recently, Pakistan Customs has permitted storage facility for international transshipment cargo at the off-dock terminal, which will increase the existing handling capacity of the ports.’

Corridor will help in increasing activities at Karachi-Gwadar ports

The Directorate General of Transit Trade further said, ‘Border customs crossing points like Taftan, Rimdan, Sost and Gwadar have been enabled by the International Road Transport Union (IRU), Geneva, to facilitate movement of international road transit consignments from Pakistan. These steps will help in increasing activities at Karachi and Gwadar ports, facilitating international trade and strengthening transshipment infrastructure. Pakistan and regional countries will benefit economically from the increasing volume of international trade and regional connectivity.

Even though the Indian Rupee is weak against the Dollar, Euro and Pound, there are some countries in the world where the Rupee is very strong. There is a country in Central Asia where people are surprised to hear the value of the Indian rupee. The name of this country is Uzbekistan. The currency of Uzbekistan is called Som and its value is much lower than the Indian Rupee. According to the report of Vice Dot, the value of 1 Indian Rupee is equal to 134 Uzbekistani Som.

If a person goes to Uzbekistan with one lakh rupees from India, then this amount gets converted into approximately 1 crore 34 lakh soms. The figure may seem big, but the prices there are also decided according to the local currency. The biggest reason for the greater strength of the Indian rupee in Uzbekistan is its weak currency and limited economy. This country is mainly dependent on cotton, gold and natural gas, whereas India’s economy is much larger and diversified. For this reason the Indian rupee appears stronger compared to other countries.

Increasingly popular among Indian tourists

Uzbekistan is becoming increasingly popular among Indian tourists. Cities like Tashkent and Samarkand are known for their historical buildings, old markets and magnificent architecture. Indians find facilities like hotels, taxis and shopping affordable, making the travel experience even better. Talking about food, the prices of milk, vegetables, fruits and grains are normal for the local people, but when seen in Indian Rupees these prices seem low. This is the reason why Indian tourists can travel there comfortably while staying within their budget.

Often in the world, when the Indian rupee is compared with the dollar or euro, it appears weak. Despite this, there are many countries in the world where the local currency is much lower than the Indian rupee. Due to this, a better life and comfortable travel becomes possible even with less money taken from India. In these countries, factors like economic structure, political stability, population and inflation affect their currency, due to which the influence of the Indian rupee is more visible.

Vietnam’s currency Dong is considered very weak against the Indian Rupee. Here the value of 1 Indian rupee is equal to 297 rupees, due to which the local expenses reduce considerably. Everything like hotels, food, places to visit and local travel are available to Indian travelers at very affordable rates. For this reason, Vietnam is becoming a popular option for budget travel. According to this, if an Indian goes to Vietnam with Rs 1 lakh, his wealth after going there will be Rs 2 crore 97 lakh.

Better experience at lower cost in Indonesia

The value of the Indian rupee is clearly felt in Indonesia also. Here the value of 1 Indian rupee is equal to 188 rupees. Because of this, the daily expenses, tourist services and local facilities here are much lower cost than in India. Travelers get everything from hotels and food to tourist activities within the budget. The strengthening of the rupee increases the possibility of comfortable travel even with less money. According to this, if an Indian goes to Indonesia with Rs 1 lakh, his wealth after reaching there will be Rs 1 crore 88 lakh.

Laos: country with peaceful environment and low expenses

Laos is a place where the local currency is very low against the Indian Rupee. Here the price of 1 rupee is equal to 244 rupees. The cost of lifestyle here is very low. Indians can enjoy natural sites, local food, cultural places and hotel facilities even on a low budget. This country is known among travelers for its peaceful environment and simplicity. According to this, if an Indian goes to Laos with Rs 1 lakh, then after going there it will become Rs 2 crore 44 lakh.

Clear benefit of Cambodia Rupee’s strengthening

Cambodia is also among those countries where the value of Indian rupee is high. Here the price of 1 rupee is equal to 45 rupees. Here one can visit historical temples, sea tourism and local culture at low cost. Hotel and food costs reduce the budget of Indian travelers, making travel more comfortable. Despite world famous sites like Angkor Wat, living and visiting here is relatively cheap. According to this, if an Indian goes to Cambodia with Rs 1 lakh, then its cost there will become Rs 45 lakh.

Uzbekistan Better facilities at lower prices

Uzbekistan’s currency is weak against the Indian rupee. Here the price of 1 rupee is 134 rupees, so the travelers coming here get benefits in many areas. Due to historical sites, tourist services, hotels, food and low cost of local travel, this country is considered attractive for budget travel. The strengthening rupee also makes premium experiences easily available to travelers. According to this, if an Indian goes to Uzbekistan with Rs 1 lakh, his wealth after going there will be Rs 1 crore 34 lakh.
