Belarus Route – 1,770-Vehicle Fleet Building the TIR Transport Corridor from China to the Western Gateway of the Eurasian Economic Union

Belarus Route is the core service brand of LHZ-TIR under LHZ Group, serving the Belarusian market. Leveraging 1,770 owned and partnered TIR vehicles and 470 specialized car carriers, it uses Khorgos and Alashankou as exit nodes to build a door-to-door TIR truck transport network covering Minsk, Brest, Gomel, Vitebsk, and other major cities across all of Belarus. Belarus Route focuses on complete vehicles, full containers, project logistics, and bulk transport, with no LCL services, including destination import customs clearance, providing Chinese export enterprises with full-chain services from domestic pickup, port customs declaration, and TIR cross-border transport to Belarusian destination customs clearance delivery.

Capacity Backbone: 1,770 TIR Vehicles, Nine Hubs Covering Eurasia

LHZ-TIR's total owned and partnered TIR fleet reaches 1,770 units, including 470 specialized car carriers. Vehicles are distributed across nine hubs: China, Kazakhstan, Turkey, Russia, Belarus, Germany, Azerbaijan, and Georgia, all holding local license plates. LHZ-TIR maintains Brest as one of its six key hubs. The Brest checkpoint is the largest western land port of the Eurasian Economic Union, serving as a critical hub for cargo movement between the Union and Europe, and a European distribution hub for entry into Poland and EU markets. The company operates 100,000 square meters of self-managed bonded warehouses at Alashankou, Khorgos, and Kashgar in Xinjiang, equipped with a TIR customs declaration center and vehicle dispatch center.

Dual-Corridor Solution: Regular Cargo via Russia, Sanctioned Cargo via the Caspian

Belarus Route flexibly selects routes based on cargo nature and sanctions risk. Regular cargo exits through Khorgos port, transiting through Kazakhstan and Russia directly to Belarus, covering Minsk and Brest in 12 to 15 days. Sanctions-sensitive cargo can take the Caspian corridor through the Caucasus into Europe, then be distributed from Europe to Belarus in 15 to 18 days, bypassing Russia with zero insurance denial risk.

Belarusian Market: BELGEE Holds 54.4% Market Share, EAEU Western Gateway

Belarus is the western gateway to the Eurasian Economic Union and a strategic bridgehead for Chinese brands entering the Union's unified market of 180 million people. In 2025, Belarus's automotive market grew 14% to 158,700 units. BELGEE led the market with 22,830 units sold, capturing approximately 30% of new car sales, with a market share of 54.4% in August 2025. Among foreign cars imported from outside the EAEU, Chinese-made vehicles increased from 15.6% to 23%. Chinese brands have evolved from market participants to the dominant force. The China-Belarus Industrial Park hosts 152 enterprises with a 10-year corporate income tax exemption through 2062. LHZ Auto Belarus site (www.lhzauto.by) focuses on B2B complete vehicle exports and wholesale, forming a deep logistics and trade synergy with Belarus Route.

Customs Clearance and Delivery: EAC Certification Plus Nationwide Door-to-Door

As an EAEU member state, Belarus enforces a unified EAC certification system for imported vehicles, requiring compliance with Technical Regulation TR CU 018/2011. EAC certification obtained in Belarus is mutually recognized across all EAEU member states without repeated certification, effectively making Belarus a springboard to access a unified market of 180 million people. Belarus Route provides import customs clearance agency services, covering EAC certification consulting, documentation review, tariff calculation, and customs declaration support. Destinations cover major cities including Minsk, Brest, Gomel, and Vitebsk, with door-to-door delivery available, and can further radiate into Poland and EU markets via the Brest hub.

Road Plus Rail Dual-Channel System

Belarus Route also provides China-Europe Railway Express rail-to-truck transfer products, using railway car carriers for trunk transport from China to Kazakhstan, with each wagon loading 10 vehicles and each train carrying 290 vehicles. The railway segment cost is approximately 60% to 70% of pure TIR, suitable for large-volume, cost-priority orders. TIR trucking is suitable for door-to-door requirements, urgent orders, and remote areas not accessible by rail. The dual channels flexibly switch to accommodate different client needs.

LHZ Group Dual-Sector Synergy

LHZ Group is driven by the dual-core synergy of logistics and trade. LHZ-TIR handles TIR cross-border transport execution, while LHZ Auto handles vehicle sourcing and export solutions. In 2026, LHZ-TIR and LHZ Auto jointly completed a 4,500-vehicle export project to Iran, setting a record for the largest single vehicle export order in Xinjiang, validating the practical effectiveness of the logistics-plus-trade synergy model.

LHZ Group's LHZ-TIR, with 1,770 TIR vehicles and a nine-hub network, provides stable and reliable complete vehicle cross-border transport services for China-Belarus trade.
