“Thai Wan Hai Company became the first foreign shipping line that resumed operation in Iran after its ship berthed in the Southern Iranian Shaheed Rajayee port on Tuesday morning,” reported Iran’s FARS News Agency. Wan Hai is headquartered in Taiwan, but has subsidiaries in a number of countries, including Thailand.
“This is for the first time that a ship of a foreign shipping line berths in an Iranian port after Iran and the Group 5+1 [the U.S., Russia, China, France and Britain plus Germany] reached an interim agreement in Geneva on November 24.”
The news service said that last week, Deputy Head of Iranian Ports and Maritime Organization Ali Jahandideh announced that the first foreign shipping line would resume activities in Iranian ports in coming days, and three other shipping lines would arrive at Shaheed Rajayee Port in Southern Iran soon.
