Puntos clave

  • Containers usually get 7 to 14 days of free time after arrival, with daily detention charges beyond that.
  • Combine the shipping plan with destination port capability and inland roads; ocean freight alone understates cost.
  • This compiles public rules for pre-shipment checks; applicable categories, inspection bodies and documents are confirmed by the destination authority and the importer.
