Everything you need to know about trucking and land freight to Syria — border crossings, truck types, pricing, and required documentation.
Land freight to Syria
Land freight is one of the most widely used transport modes for cargo destined for Syria, offering door-to-door flexibility and inland reach across multiple border crossings. Across MENA operates a diversified fleet and established land transport partnerships to deliver on time and in full compliance.

Multiple border crossings connect Syria to neighbouring countries, each with its own customs procedures and transit timelines.
- Nassib–Jaber crossing (Jordan–Syria): One of the most active commercial freight crossings.
- Al Bukamal–Al Qaim (Iraq–Syria): Serves Gulf-origin cargo routing through Iraq.
- Bab al-Hawa (Turkey–Syria): Primary gateway for northern Syria shipments.
- Al Masnaa (Lebanon–Syria): Links Syria to Beirut port for sea-land cargo.
