Disclaimer

General information only

The content of this website is published for general information. It is not advice, and it must not be relied upon as advice, in relation to any particular shipment, vehicle, commodity, customs position or legal question. Every consignment differs, and the correct answer for one shipper is frequently the wrong answer for another. Before you commit to a purchase, a sale or a movement, obtain a written quotation and written confirmation of the requirements that apply to your specific circumstances.

While we take reasonable care to keep the site accurate and current, freight is a fast-moving industry. Carrier schedules, surcharges, customs rules, import age limits, prohibited goods lists and sanctions regimes change frequently and often without notice. We give no warranty, express or implied, that the information here is complete, accurate or up to date at the moment you read it.

Indicative rates and transit times

Any price shown on this site is indicative. Indicative rates are typical ranges based on recent bookings for comparable cargo, and they exclude destination charges, import duty, local taxes, quarantine and inspection fees, demurrage and storage. Actual pricing depends on the measured dimensions and weight of the cargo, the loading port, the sailing selected, the exchange rate and the surcharges in force on the day of booking.

Transit times shown are port-to-port or airport-to-airport estimates published by carriers. They exclude UK collection, terminal receiving time, waiting time for space, customs examination, transhipment delays and inland delivery at destination. A transit estimate is not a guarantee of a delivery date, and we accept no liability for loss arising from reliance on a published estimate.

Customs, duty and regulatory content

Guidance published here about customs procedures, export documentation, duty relief, vehicle age restrictions and prohibited items is a summary and is necessarily incomplete. The authoritative sources are HM Revenue & Customs, the DVLA, the relevant licensing authority and the customs administration of the destination country. Where the stakes are significant, obtain confirmation from the destination authority or a licensed broker in that country before shipping.

External links and limitation

This site may link to external websites operated by carriers, authorities and other third parties. Those links are provided for convenience only. We do not control the content of external sites, we do not endorse them, and we accept no responsibility for their content, availability, accuracy or their handling of your data.
