Shipping from Thailand

Shipping cargo from Thailand begins with thorough preparation. The first step is proper packaging of goods and creating a detailed packing list. The list should include contents, quantity, dimensions, and weight of each box. Note that airlines determine costs based on the highest weight, so pay attention to calculating the volumetric weight. Typically, packaging and list preparation are handled by the supplier or seller.
An invoice is also needed to calculate shipping costs, duties, and VAT. Once documents are prepared, the packed cargo should be sent to our warehouse. Shipping from Thailand can be done by air or sea. Air freight is a fast option, allowing direct delivery or with a transfer. Sea freight is optimal for large commercial shipments, with the possibility of sending smaller loads via consolidated containers. Please note that we do not accept sea shipments of goods purchased outside our companies.

The cost of shipping cargo from Thailand varies depending on several factors: the type of cargo, its dimensions, and the destination. To get an accurate estimate, please provide as much information as possible about your request: Box dimensions (width x height x length) and weight. Name and quantity of cargo units. Destination country, city, and arrival airport. For a more precise cost calculation, we recommend requesting a packing list from your supplier or seller and forwarding it to our specialist. Example request: "I need a cost estimate for air freight to Sheremetyevo International Airport (SVO). The cargo consists of T-shirts, 12 packages, each weighing 14 kg, with dimensions of 35x35x20 cm. Additional details are provided in the packing list and invoice attached to this email. Customs clearance will be handled by us." Such a request simplifies the calculation process. For example, the air freight rate from Bangkok to Sheremetyevo Airport in Moscow in September 2022 was $7.5 per kilogram. Please note that this price refers to a past period. For current rates, please contact our specialist.

International Commercial Terms, Incoterms, are a glossary of commercial terms developed under the aegis of the International Chamber of Commerce. The current edition, Incoterms 2020, has been in effect since September 10, 2019. The first edition was published in 1936. This glossary provides terms for basic delivery conditions, including the transportation process and delivery arrangements. The three-letter abbreviations for each term are standardized and agreed upon with the relevant UN bodies.

FOB (Free on Board) is a term from Incoterms that refers to the basic delivery conditions whereby the seller is responsible for delivering the goods onto the ship chartered by the buyer at the agreed port of shipment within the specified timeframe. The buyer must charter the ship and timely notify the seller about the time and place of loading, the name of the ship, its arrival time, and the loading conditions. The risk of loss or damage to the goods transfers from the seller to the buyer at the moment the goods are loaded onto the ship. In contracts, it is used as, for example, FOB Vladivostok (with Vladivostok being the agreed port of shipment).

Ex Works (EXW) is a basic delivery condition under which the seller makes the goods available to the buyer at the seller's premises or warehouse and is not responsible for loading the goods onto the transport vehicles provided by the buyer. The buyer bears all costs and risks associated with transporting the goods from the seller's premises or warehouse to the destination.

Simply put, cargo means freight. Cargo refers to products or various properties of individuals and legal entities that are accepted for transportation by common carriers or other transport providers.

The Air Waybill also features the airline's logo, name, and serial number.
