Where these numbers come from
Distance is the straight line between the two cities times 1.25 for road circuity. The driver’s net fare comes from the tonne-kilometre index and the distance coefficient; on top of it sit a 9% cargo levy, 0.5% supplementary driver insurance and an 8% bill-of-lading commission, about 17.5% in all. Loading is charged separately and is not included.
These are estimates, not quotes. A real fare moves with loading conditions, season, return loads and what the driver agrees to. Call the desk for a firm rate.
Frequently asked questions
How is rebar freight calculated in Iran?
The base fare is tonnes carried times kilometres travelled times the official tonne-kilometre index, adjusted by a distance coefficient. On top of the driver’s net fare come a 9% cargo levy, 0.5% supplementary insurance and an 8% bill-of-lading commission.
What is the 1405 tonne-kilometre index?
Since 15 Khordad 1405 the index is 16,680 Rial, or 1,668 Toman, per tonne-kilometre. It was previously 13,190 Rial, so this was a rise of about 26.5%.
How much can an Iranian trailer carry?
A five-axle eighteen-wheel trailer has a legal maximum gross weight of 44 tonnes and in practice loads about 22 to 24 tonnes of steel. A three-axle ten-wheeler is capped at 28 tonnes gross and carries about 15 tonnes; a Khavar carries four to six.
What is the difference between ex-works and delivered price?
An ex-works price is the steel sitting on the mill’s ground, with no transport in it. A delivered price is that plus the freight to your yard. Over a long haul the difference can be several percent of the goods, so comparing two mills without it is misleading.
Why does a part load cost more per kilogram?
Freight is charged per trip, not per kilogram. A four-tonne Khavar costs less per trip than a trailer, but because it carries far less, each kilogram carries more of the fare. A full trailer is always the cheapest case per kilogram.
What about small pickup loads?
For small loads and city runs the Iranian trade uses a Nissan pickup, which carries up to about two tonnes. The association tariff these numbers are calibrated against carries no ratio for a pickup — that work is negotiated directly — so the calculation here starts at the four-tonne Khavar.
Does the freight figure include VAT?
The figure shown includes the cargo levy and the bill-of-lading commission but not VAT. VAT on the goods is applied separately, with its own toggle on the price tables.
