Choosing the right sea container depends on the type of cargo. The most popular are:
- Standard 20ft container: For heavier, smaller loads.
- Standard 40ft container: For larger volume loads.
- High Cube 40ft container: For light but volumetrically larger cargo that requires extra height.
We will always advise you on the container size you should choose for your load from Asia.
Customs clearance for sea transport from Asia involves several key stages:
- Customs declaration: Submission of documents such as commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and other required documents.
- Customs inspection: In some cases, a physical inspection of the cargo may be conducted.
- Customs duties: Depending on the type of goods, this may include import duties, VAT, and other fees and taxes specific to the destination country.
Customs duties and taxes vary depending on the destination country, type of goods, and their value. We can help you figure out the fees for your cargo from Asia.

The cost of insurance is relatively small compared to the potential losses that could result from unforeseen events. You will receive the current insurance rate from our team.
