Iran to Africa Shipping Rates — Get Your Quote

Iran to Africa shipping rates depend on cargo type, container volume, destination port, and current route conditions — there’s no single fixed price for the lane. The fastest way to get an accurate freight cost is a direct quote.

What Affects Your Rate

  • Container volume — HAPCO ships FCL (full container load) only; your rate is per container, not per shared space
  • Shipping method — sea freight is typically the most economical option; air freight costs more per kilo but cuts transit time from weeks to about 7 days
  • Inland transport in Iran — road or rail to the departure port is included in the overall quote
  • Route and destination port — Mersin and Poti serve different parts of Africa with different transit profiles, so the port pair affects both cost and speed
  • Cargo type — standard goods vs. items requiring special handling, documentation, or that fall under Iran’s agricultural/food export restrictions (a full ban was introduced in spring 2026; several categories have since been exempted, some under regulated quotas — worth confirming your product’s current status)

For the full picture of how these factors interact by cargo category, see Iran to Africa shipping: routes, cargo types, and costs.

Typical Ranges

Exact pricing varies by shipment, but as a starting reference:

  • Sea freight (FCL): the most economical option for full containers. Transit time via Mersin or Poti varies by destination port — here’s a reference for key routes:
