Key Logistics Answers for Global Buyers
How do overseas procurement teams select between Air Freight and Ocean Freight?
Air freight is ideal for urgent, high-value, or time-sensitive shipments requiring airport-to-door delivery within days. Ocean freight provides the most cost-effective solution for heavy, bulky, or scheduled inventory replenishment, moving via 20ft/40ft containers over several weeks.
What core shipping documents are required for international customs entry?
Standard international shipments require an accurate Commercial Invoice, Packing List, and a transport document (Bill of Lading or Air Waybill). Depending on commodity type and destination regulations, export declarations, safety data sheets (SDS), or certificates of origin may also be mandated.
