'''Asian Highway 7''' ('''AH7''') is a route in the [[Asian Highway Network]]. It runs from [[Yekaterinburg]], Russia to Karachi, Pakistan. All together, it is {{convert|5,868|km|abbr=on}} long. It passes from Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Afghanistan and Pakistan.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.unescap.org/sites/default/files/Full%20version.pdf|title=Asian Highway Handbook|year=2003|location=New York|access-date=19 December 2014}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.unescap.org/sites/default/files/AH-map_2018-2.pdf|title=Asian Highway Route Map|website=[[Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific]]|access-date=19 December 2018}}</ref>

The AH7 shares its route between [[Merke]] (Kazakhstan) and [[Kara-Balta]] (Kyrgyzstan) about a hundred kilometers along with the [[AH5]]. In Kabul (Afghanistan) AH7 stops, but reaches to the city of [[Kandahar]] though [[AH1]], where the AH7 resumes its route towards Pakistan.

According to the manual of the Asian Highway Project in 2002 almost the entire route is paved. Only a distance of 72 km in Kyrgyzstan and a piece of 83 kilometers in Tajikistan are unpaved. As of 2017, the entire route in Kyrgyzstan is paved.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.unescap.org/our-work/transport/asian-highway/database|title=Asian Highway Database – Country wise|website=[[UNESCAP]]|access-date=19 December 2018}}</ref>

In Pakistan AH7 (N25 – Pakistan Road Networks) enters at Chaman. It passes through Qila Abdullah, Quetta, Mastung, Kalat, Khuzdar, Uthal, Goth Hussain and Hub, ending at Karachi. In Pakistan N25 is also called RCD ([[Regional Cooperation for Development]]) Highway. Maintained by [[National Highway Authority]].
