Frequently Asked Questions about Sea Freight (FAQ)
How are sea freight charges calculated?
Sea freight costs depend on many factors: type of cargo (FCL/LCL), route, shipping line, surcharges (THC, LSS, etc.), and additional services. We are committed to providing the most detailed, transparent, and competitive quotations.
What are the main differences between FCL and LCL?
FCL (Full Container Load) is when you rent an entire container for yourself. LCL (Less than Container Load) is when you rent only a portion of the containers space and share it with other shippers. FCL is faster and safer, while LCL is more cost-effective for smaller shipments.
How long does it take to ship by sea from Vietnam to the United States?
Sea freight times from major Vietnamese ports to the US West Coast (e.g., Long Beach Port) are approximately 18-25 days. To the East Coast (e.g., New York Port) it takes about 30-40 days. These times may vary depending on the shipping line and specific schedules.
