Frequently Asked Questions

Although sea cargo or shipping are frequently utilized interchangeably, there's an important difference:
- Sea Freight refers to the transport service in itself, encompassing logistical aspects and techniques for transporting goods via shipping by sea.
- Sea Cargo refers specifically to the products or products being shipped. It's the actual cargo that is transported through sea freight.

Sea freight is typically calculated based on:
- Weight or volume: cost is typically determined by either the volume (measured as cubic meters) or the weight of the package, whichever is the greater.
- Type of cargo: Different types of cargo may have different pricing, with special considerations for hazardous or temperature-sensitive items.
- Distance and destination: The distance between the port of origin and port may affect the price since longer distances typically cost more.
