Shipping goods to Mongolia – which route to choose?
The growing interest of Polish exporters has made shipping goods to Mongolia one of the most frequently discussed topics in the industry. Depending on the type of goods, timeline, and budget, different routes and transport methods can be considered. Clever Logistics supports companies in selecting the best solutions – for both trial shipments and regular deliveries.
Shipping to Mongolia – routes, means of transport, options
The most commonly chosen option remains the northern route – through Belarus and Russia. Transport by trucks, containers, and rail wagons is possible, with transshipment in Brest. For veterinary goods, it is recommended to agree in advance on the format of the transshipment document with the recipient to avoid issues during import.
Containers – eco-friendly and convenient solution
Container transport is gaining popularity. 40-foot containers travel from Małaszewicze to Ulaanbaatar without transshipment. The recipient is responsible for picking up the container, unloading it, handling import clearance, and returning the empty container to the terminal.
Alternative for restricted codes – the Middle Corridor via China
Not all goods can be transported through Russia. In the case of restricted codes (e.g. car parts), it is worth considering the Middle Corridor and delivery from the Chinese side. Although the route is longer, it complies with internal corporate policies and helps avoid sanctions.
Delivery of small shipments and urgent goods
For smaller shipments, LTL (less than truckload) and air freight options are recommended. These are ideal for time-sensitive products or goods subject to transit restrictions. Air deliveries are carried out to the Tuushin terminal in Ulaanbaatar, with the option for further distribution.
