Afghanistan is an important partner of China at the crossroads of Central and South Asia. Bilateral trade between China and Afghanistan exceeded 1.5 billion USD in 2025. China is Afghanistan third largest trading partner. Afghanistan is a key corridor connecting Central Asia and South Asia, with enormous post-war reconstruction market potential.
