Shipping from Iran to Busan, South Korea via Mersin (2026)

Due to the current unstable situation at Iran’s traditional ports, HAPCO now ships via alternative routes — Mersin, Turkey and Poti, Georgia — rather than Bandar Abbas. Busan turns out to be a genuinely strong option under this new routing.

Shipping Time from Iran to Busan: The Real Breakdown

  • Via Mersin: 30-40 days total, door-to-door — our fastest East Asian route by a clear margin
  • Via Poti: 70-80 days total, door-to-door

The difference between the two origin ports here is the largest of any route in our Asia network — Mersin is strongly preferred for Busan-bound cargo.

The Route: Iran → Mersin → Busan

Cargo is trucked from Iran to Mersin, Turkey, then by sea to Busan, South Korea’s largest port and one of the world’s major container hubs, served by well-established international shipping lines.

FCL Focus

As with our other routes, FCL shipping — 20ft and 40ft HQ containers — is where we focus for Busan-bound cargo.

Part of Our Asia Network
