TEHRAN - Duty head of the Iranian Customs Administration Foroud Asgari says Iran and China plan to launch a Green Customs Corridor aimed at facilitating growing trade between the two strategic partners.

He said Iran will work to create as many customs corridors as possible with China under bilateral agreements so that business people from both countries will be able to handle imports and exports without delay.
