Air Freight Service

As Vietnam’s economy continues to grow, there is a rising demand for air freight services. In addition to carrying passengers, flights have become a vital means for transporting goods worldwide. With increased international trade, air transport has gained popularity due to its route flexibility and ability to transport valuable cargo.

1. The definition of air freight forward:

Air freight refers to the transportation of goods, postal items, passengers, letters, and luggage by air. In Vietnam, air transportation is governed by the Law on Civil Aviation and is conducted by airlines.

2. The features of air transportation:

  • Speed: Air shipping is significantly faster than sea transport, making it suitable for time-sensitive shipments.
  • High-value goods: Valuable goods are often transported by air due to enhanced security and faster delivery.
  • Terrain flexibility: Air transport is not hindered by terrain obstacles and does not require costly infrastructure investments like railways or seaports, enabling a broader global shipping network.
  • Perishable goods: Air transport is ideal for perishable goods, minimizing losses and costs associated with spoilage or damage.
  • Safety: Air traffic is generally safer than other modes of transportation, reducing risks. Customers who purchase transportation insurance can benefit from lower costs.
  • Minimal storage time: Rapid shipping and handling times result in minimal storage fees.

3. Items suitable for air shipping:

When considering air freight services, it’s important to determine if your shipment is suitable for this method:

  • General goods: These include items without size, content, or packaging restrictions for air transport.
  • Special goods: This category encompasses distinct items such as live animals, high-value goods, remains, perishables, dangerous goods, wet goods, or odorous items. Special items require careful packing and may need transport permits in compliance with regulations.

However, transporting by using air freight forward has certain challenges:

  • Improper packing: Inadequate packaging, mismatched markings, or improper handling can lead to conflicts between buyers and sellers when damage occurs.
  • High transportation Costs: Air transport may not be cost-effective for low-value agricultural products due to their short shelf life, quick spoilage, and seasonality. Effective integration of production, harvesting, packaging, storage, transportation, and export is essential.
  • Weather delays: Weather conditions can cause delays in the transportation of goods.

To address these challenges, Expander has utilized our air freight services as we have always worked with customers to find optimal ways to transport goods, handle customs procedures, and ensure safe delivery.

4. Expander air freight fees:

Estimating costs in air freight is essential for import-export budgeting. At Expander, we believe these are fee sections that need to be considered thoroughly:

  • Domestic Shipping: Transport from warehouse to airport, costly for large or bulky goods.
  • Customs Clearance: Mandatory for imports/exports, covers document prep, customs declaration service, order changes, storage of frozen goods, unloading, and product inspection.
  • Airway Bill Issuance: Fee for creating a bill of lading, serves as proof of ownership and a contract between carrier and charterer.
  • THC (Terminal Handling Charge): Port loading/unloading surcharge based on cargo weight.
  • D/O Fee (Delivery Order): Charged upon arrival notice for imports, pays for document retrieval.
  • Handling Fee: Covers goods handling and safety monitoring per shipping line or forwarder rules.
  • X-ray Fee and Security: Low-cost airline fee for security checks, varies by inspection volume.

5. The process of importing goods by air freight service:

Managing import processes through aircrafts involves several steps:

  • Foreign trade contract: Negotiate and sign contracts, ensuring accurate goods information and document provision.
  • Import license (if required): Depending on the goods, apply in advance to avoid storage fees.
  • Payment methods: Utilize international payment methods like remittance, delivery of payment documents, documentary credits, collections, or letters of credit.
  • Document verification: Check and synchronize essential documents, including sales contracts, airway bills, commercial invoices, packing lists, and certificates of origin.
  • Arrival notification: Airlines send notices for arrival procedures. Consignees prepare for goods pickup, ensuring goods’ condition.
  • Customs clearance: Mandatory for imports, involving customs declaration per government regulations.
  • Transport to warehouse: After customs clearance, transport goods to your warehouse to complete the process.
