Service availability in Islamabad
Container deliveries to Islamabad travel one of Pakistan's most important freight arteries: the National Highway from Karachi north through Sukkur and Multan, joining the M-2 motorway to Lahore and then the M-1 into Islamabad. NHMP maintains active checkposts along this route, enforcing the 90 km/h heavy vehicle speed limit and weight-bridge compliance; overloaded or under-documented vehicles are held until the issue is resolved. For Islamabad-based importers, the 3–5 day transit from Karachi Port makes document readiness at the port end the biggest variable — containers cleared quickly under WeBOC Green Channel dispatch significantly faster than those held for Red Channel examination. NLC's dry port at Islamabad offers an alternative clearance point for importers who prefer upcountry customs processing.
