The Dual-use port of Noshahr was built by a Dutch contracting firm in late 1920s and is currently one of the most imporatant ports of Iran in the Caspian Sea. The city of Chaloos and its associated towns and villages were part of the Noshahr township prior to 1996 after which they formed the new township of Chaloos by legislation from the national parliament.
