Karachi, March 30, 2026 – Pakistan Customs has announced a major public auction of seized passenger buses, trucks, trailers, and commercial transport vehicles scheduled to take place on April 6, 2026, at the Customs Enforcement Collectorate, Gadani. The auction is expected to attract transporters, logistics companies, intercity bus operators, industrial buyers, and investors looking for affordable commercial fleet options.
According to Pakistan Customs, dozens of old and used Hino, Daewoo, Yutong, and Hyundai Shehzore vehicles will be offered for bidding. These vehicles were seized in various enforcement operations and are now being auctioned under customs rules after completion of legal formalities. Many units include complete commercial buses and heavy trucks, making it one of the largest auctions of heavy transport vehicles announced this year.
The auction list includes multiple Hino passenger buses, such as a bus previously registered under LIT-7455, along with several Daewoo buses with registrations including BSB-951, BSE-088, BSH-999, and BSB-919—all listed as old and used units pending final clearance requirements. A large number of six-wheeler and ten-wheeler Hino trucks will also go under the hammer, including units bearing registration numbers TAL-675, TRK-837, TKW-288, TAT-144, and TMA-494, offering transporters an opportunity to acquire heavy-duty vehicles at competitive prices.
Many of the vehicles come paired with mounted containers, making them particularly attractive for long-haul transport businesses. Examples include trucks mounted with 40-foot containers, such as the Hino trailer previously registered as TMN-090 and the Hino truck with container Z-7775, providing ready-to-use commercial solutions for cargo operators.
In addition to buses and trucks, the auction features Yutong Master buses with registrations BTA-722, BTA-300, and LES-6014. These models are widely used in Pakistan’s intercity transport sector and are expected to generate strong interest from operators looking to expand their fleets at lower acquisition costs.
Pakistan Customs officials noted that the auction also includes a series of leftover lots from previous seizures. These comprise additional Daewoo passenger buses, large container vehicles, and commercial trucks with various chassis configurations. Vehicles such as the Daewoo bus BSB-012 and a 12-wheeler container vehicle TLT-535 are part of this category, broadening the range of options available to buyers.
The department encouraged interested buyers to visit Gadani before the auction date to inspect the vehicles physically. All units will be sold on an “as-is where-is” basis, and potential bidders are advised to verify chassis numbers, engine conditions, and documentation status. Many vehicles are listed as “Subject to FSL”, indicating pending laboratory verification of identification details.
Industry experts say the auction is likely to receive strong participation due to rising prices of new commercial vehicles in Pakistan. Import restrictions, higher duties, and currency pressures have pushed transporters toward more affordable alternatives, making customs auctions an attractive procurement channel.
The April 6 auction is expected to generate significant revenue for the national exchequer while also helping renew the supply of commercial vehicles into the market. Pakistan Customs has termed it an important part of its regular enforcement and disposal operations aimed at transparency and efficient asset management.
For transporters, fleet operators, and commercial buyers, the Gadani auction presents a rare opportunity to secure passenger buses, trucks, and trailers at competitive rates in a high-demand market.
