Overview

Doing a steel project in Turkmenistan

Turkmenistan is in Central Asia. The capital is Ashgabat. Local currency: Turkmenistan manat (TMT).

Turkmenistan has no coastline: shipments arrive through a seaport in a neighbouring country (Afghanistan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan) and continue by road or rail.

Vietnam has no free trade agreement in force with Turkmenistan. Imports follow the general tariff of Turkmenistan, which is checked for each project in the landed cost estimate.

Victor Dang, Global Sales Director of World Steel Group, is the direct contact for projects in Turkmenistan, from first drawings to fabrication, packing, shipping and documents.
