The eastern direction is the primary route for imports from China, Korea, Japan, and Southeast Asia. The shortest sea passage, own infrastructure in the Far East, and offices in China are the key advantages of this direction.
Sea services from Chinese ports (Shanghai, Ningbo, Qingdao, Xingang, Nansha, Xiamen, Shantou, Yantian) to Vladivostok — 7–12 days in transit. This is the fastest sea route from Asia to Russia. For cargo from Korea and Japan — even faster. The alternative is rail via Zabaykalsk or Naushki, but for large shipments sea is more cost-effective.
