The ban on the transfer of cargo through the Zabaikalsk-Manchuria border crossing has been introduced.

Currently, in connection with the notification of the Manchuria Coronavirus Control Headquarters No. 48 dated November 30, 2021, in order to prevent infection with coronavirus infection through cargo entering the People's Republic of China, a ban on the transfer of non-containerized cargo through the Zabaikalsk-Manchuria border crossing has been introduced.
As of December 3, 2021, there are about 3,900 wagons with cargo en route in the direction of the specified border crossing.
JSC "Russian Railways" asks, in cooperation with shippers, to consider the issues of timely reorientation of goods to alternative delivery routes (in particular, through the ports of the Far East) or the return of wagons to the departure station.
