The purpose of this study is to present a model and identify and rank the factors affecting the development of transit capacity of goods with the approach of structural equations (Case study: Amirabad port).

The statistical population of this research was professors and experts in port affairs in ports. Data collection tools were in-depth and open interviews with experts in the first stage and a researcher-made questionnaire in the second stage. In this research, in order to analyze the data and achieve the conceptual model of the research, the three methods of ground method (open coding, axial coding, and selective coding) and in the second stage of structural model testing using LISREL software And Smart Pls were used.

The research results confirmed the fit of the conceptual model and a comprehensive model was presented to identify and rank the factors affecting the development of transit capacity of goods with the approach of structural equations.

Nowadays, the transit of goods is one of the most profitable trades in the world, and naturally, the countries that are in the path of transit corridors can benefit the most from this trade. In some countries, transit is considered as a source to compensate for some of the investments and costs incurred in the transport sector,and transit can be considered as one of the most important pillars and commercial infrastructure for the development of exports to target markets.
