Iran to Increase Technical Exports
TEHRAN (FNA)- A senior Iranian economic official announced that the country plans to boost the volume of export of its technical and engineering services to $4.5bln by the end of the current Iranian year (March 20).
Sohrab Salimi, an official with Iran Trade Development Organization, reiterated on Wednesday that the country has exported $604mln worth of engineering and technical services during the first four months of the Iranian calendar year.
Most of the exported services have been sent to Belarus, Salimi said.
Other importers of Iran's technical services included Tajikistan, Azerbaijan and Pakistan, the official added.
Earlier, an Iranian trade official had announced that Iran's exports of technical and engineering services to the other countries in 2009 have surpassed $3bln worth in value despite the ongoing global economic recession.
