How It Works
Our freight forwarding process begins with a thorough assessment of your shipping requirements. We evaluate cargo dimensions, weight, value, urgency, and destination to recommend the most cost-effective and reliable shipping method. Our team provides detailed quotations covering all charges from origin to destination with no hidden fees.
Once you approve the shipment plan, we handle cargo booking with our partner carriers, prepare all shipping documentation including bills of lading or airway bills, commercial invoices, packing lists, and certificates of origin. We coordinate pickup from your warehouse or factory in Bali and manage the export customs clearance process through CEISA.
Throughout transit, we provide real-time tracking and proactive communication about your shipment status. At destination, we coordinate with our agent network for import customs clearance and final delivery. Our end-to-end visibility ensures you always know where your cargo is and when it will arrive.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between FCL and LCL shipping?
FCL (Full Container Load) means you use an entire container exclusively for your goods. LCL (Less than Container Load) means your goods share container space with other shippers. FCL is more cost-effective for large volumes, while LCL is ideal for smaller shipments.
How long does sea freight from Bali take?
Transit times vary by destination: Singapore 3-5 days, Australia 10-14 days, Europe 25-35 days, USA West Coast 20-28 days, Middle East 14-21 days. These are port-to-port times; add customs and delivery time at destination.
Do you provide cargo insurance?
Yes. We arrange comprehensive marine cargo insurance covering all risks during transit. We recommend insuring all shipments to protect against loss, damage, or delay. Coverage options include ICC(A) all-risks and ICC(C) basic coverage.
Can you ship from Bali to multiple destinations?
Absolutely. We regularly handle multi-destination shipments for Bali exporters selling to various markets. We optimize routing and consolidation to minimize costs while meeting each destination’s delivery schedule.
