Step-by-Step Procedure for Ocean Freight Shipping

Shipment Planning & Booking

The process begins with understanding the client’s shipping requirements such as cargo type, volume, destination, and timeline. Based on this, the most suitable ocean freight option—FCL or LCL—is selected, and space is booked with a shipping line.

01

Cargo Pickup & Transportation to Port

The cargo is collected from the shipper’s location and transported to a container freight station (CFS) or directly to the port terminal, depending on the service type.

02

Container Stuffing & Packaging

Goods are securely packed and loaded into shipping containers, ensuring they meet international maritime safety and handling standards. For LCL shipments, goods are consolidated with cargo from other shippers.

03

Documentation Preparation

Key shipping documents are prepared, including: Bill of Lading (B/L) Commercial Invoice Packing List Export/Import Permits Certificate of Origin (if required)

04

Customs Clearance at Origin Port

The shipment undergoes export customs procedures. Authorities review the documents, inspect the cargo (if necessary), and grant clearance for international shipping.

05

Loading onto Vessel & Departure

Once cleared, the container is loaded onto the designated cargo vessel. The ship then departs for the destination port based on the scheduled sailing.

06

In-Transit Tracking

During the voyage, the shipment is tracked using real-time systems. Clients receive regular updates regarding the vessel's status and estimated time of arrival (ETA).

07

Arrival at Destination Port

Upon reaching the destination port, the shipment is unloaded and transferred to the port’s customs facility for clearance.

08

Import Customs Clearance

Customs authorities verify import documentation, apply duties/taxes, and inspect the cargo if required. Upon approval, the cargo is released for delivery.

09

Delivery to Final Destination

The cleared shipment is transported from the port to the consignee’s location via road or rail. For door-to-door services, APAC Logistics manages the entire delivery process.

10

Proof of Delivery (POD) & Closure

Once the goods are received by the consignee, a Proof of Delivery (POD) is issued and the shipment is officially closed.
