Customs officials at Sher Khan Bandar port in Kunduz province said the revenue from this port has increased 58 percent.

According to the officials, more over 300 million afghani have been earned in the last 15 months.

According to officials, providing facilities for traders and maintaining good international relations is contributing to the Sher Khan Bander revenue increase.

“Providing facilities for traders, coordinating with traders and good relations with Tajikistan are factors contributing to the port's increased revenue,” said Ishaq, head of the Sher Khan Bandar port in Kunduz.

Meanwhile, officials of the Commerce and Investment Department said that visas are not issued on time and this is causing challenges.

“Officials didn’t pay attention to Sher Khan Bandar port as they do to other ports, and we call on the Islamic Emirate to pay attention to this area,” said Abdul Mateen Yosuf Zai, head of the Chamber of the Commerce and Investment in Kunduz.
