Sea freight may be an alternative if your supplier is located near a major Chinese port. Water connects China with Latvia, which is the most cost-effective way to carry large or heavy items. We will arrange DDP or DDU sea freight with FCL or LCL cargo in containers of any size or with any special feature. Starting from any port in China, such as Shanghai or Ningbo, our agents will organize shipping to any port in Latvia, such as in Riga, Liepaja, and Ventspils.

Flying is the only means of transportation that can compete with the alternatives, thanks to China’s regular flights to Latvia’s main airports. If you need your shipment to arrive from China to Latvia as quickly as possible, we will arrange for efficient air freight. We will contact the airline, work within your timelines and budget, as well as oversee tracking. Your shipment can be sent to any airport in Latvia, such as in Riga, Liepaja, and Daugavpils.

Rail freight is increasingly becoming more popular for European import from China. We can arrange rail freight from Xi’an to Riga via Belorussian railway or Kazakhstan. Another route starts from Ürümqi in China, traveling to Riga. We can organize truck freight from there to your desired location.

Note that air freight usually only involves delivering items to a Latvian airport, not to the inventory’s final destination. To get your shipment to its final destination, you’ll need to supply additional shipping services. The only exception is if you have arranged for Bacolod door-to-door delivery. As previously indicated, door-to-door delivery enables the coordination of products transportation from the airport to the ultimate destination, as well as customs clearance through Latvian customs.

The inspection is done to ensure that the items are handled correctly and placed safely into shipping containers for safe transportation and delivery to the final destination. CCIC employs the internationally acknowledged ANSI/ASQC Z1.4 (ISO 2859-1) statistical sampling approach for all inspections. Functionality, performance, durability, overall beauty, and dimension are all covered by these extensive requirements.

Most goods imported to Latvia are taxed at 21%. Also, some products may be taxes differently according to the EU HS codes. Bacolod professionals will handle all paperwork, pay taxes at customs, broker a smooth customs clearance, and represent you with diligence.
