Shipping from Iran to Thailand (Bangkok) via Mersin: Real Times

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. Here’s the real picture for Thailand-bound cargo.

Shipping Time from Iran to Thailand: The Real Breakdown

  • Via Mersin: 45-55 days total, door-to-door — the clearly faster option
  • Via Poti: 70-80 days total, door-to-door

The gap here is significant — Mersin is the strongly preferred origin port for Bangkok-bound cargo, unlike some routes where the two ports perform similarly.

The Route: Iran → Mersin → Bangkok

Cargo is trucked from Iran to Mersin, Turkey, then by sea toward Laem Chabang, Thailand’s main deep-sea port serving the greater Bangkok area, often connecting through major Asian transshipment hubs along the way.

What’s Commonly Shipped from Iran to Thailand

Trade between Iran and Thailand includes petrochemical products, minerals, and industrial materials — Thailand’s manufacturing and export-processing sectors create consistent demand for these input categories.

FCL Focus

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