Syrian exports face border restrictions Saudi visas provide relief

Syrian agricultural exports are facing significant challenges due to repeated delays in crossing trucks through the Nassib border crossing. Goods are exposed to spoilage due to long waiting times and high temperatures, which damage product quality and increase costs for exporters and farmers. As an important step, Saudi Arabia has begun issuing visas to Syrian drivers for trucks crossing through Jordanian territory, opening an opportunity for Syrian trucks to return directly to Gulf markets. This reduces transportation costs and enhances the competitiveness of Syrian exports. However, the key factors for restoring export activity and achieving the targeted increase in shipment volumes during the season remain the issuance of visas, facilitation of transportation movement, and border procedures. Addressing these issues will have a positive impact on producers and the market overall.
