Nurduz is located in a region 65 km far from Jolfa County in eastern Azerbaijan province and in front of Agarak city in Armenia. This region in terms of climate categorizes in relatively warm and dry regions with inappropriate climatic factors. Since late 1880s that a border road across Jolfa to Khoda Afarin was not constructed, the region was in complete geographical isolation since in early 1991 border road construction released it of the isolation and approved significant fundamental changes with relation to Armenia.

Since early 1991 that border road opened, infrastructured and asphalted and facilitated accessibility, truck and bus carrying passenger form opposite country to Iran increased significantly and because of lack of any official facilities and custom affairs started its activity by establishing container and tent and became special important as a common and authorized border between Iran and Armenia. Truck and passenger traffic increased significantly after constructing large bridge on Aras River with both charges and led at the same time to Nurduz border terminal be started with necessary and adequate facilities prediction.

Nurduz border terminal as the only common and authorized border between Iran and Armenia is very important. Accordingly, proper relations with Armenia have led to large bridge construction share based cost between Iran and Armenia in eastern side of old bridge that has increased economic transactions between the two parties.

Nurduz border terminal is designed in a land with 8 ha area in which passenger hall, disciplinary building, power plant and access areas and parking lots are constructed in about 4 ha. In this plan, passenger hall with infrastructure over 2986 m2 in two floors is predicted and constructed.
