Key Factors to Consider In the Air Freight Transportation

In today's global marketplace, air freight plays a crucial role in facilitating the swift and efficient movement of goods across borders. Whether you're a seasoned importer/exporter or just dipping your toes into international trade, understanding the key factors influencing air freight can make a significant difference in your shipping experience.

Air freight  is a reliable option for transporting both routine, non-perishable goods and urgent, perishable items. It covers domestic and international routes, specializing in various types of cargo, including pharmaceuticals, engineering equipment, and temperature-sensitive goods. Registered with IATA, air cargo services offer chartered planes on demand for special shipments, ensuring timely and efficient delivery for all kinds of cargo needs. This makes air freight an essential service for industries requiring fast and secure transportation. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the major factors to consider for successful air freight shipments.

What are the critical factors to consider for air freight?

Air Freight Costs

Quick Delivery

Cargo Volume and Size

Air freight is generally more costly than other methods of international shipping, but it offers faster delivery times and higher security for valuable or perishable items.

If your cargo needs to reach its destination quickly, consider using air freight for expedited delivery.

The dimensions (size) and volume of your cargo will influence whether it is suitable for air freight and will affect the overall shipping cost.

Some Key Factors that You need to Consider

The shipper is required to possess an Importer Exporter Code (IEC), Permanent Account Number (PAN), Goods and Services Tax (GST) registration, and must be officially registered with Customs, providing their bank details along with the Authorized Dealer (AD) code assigned by the bank.

The Commercial Invoice and packing list are essential. Cargo must be declared accurately with its value and quantity. The packing list should clearly indicate the quantity and markings/numbers of the cargo for easy identification.

Speed and Efficiency:

One of the most significant advantages of air freight is its unparalleled speed. Air transportation offers rapid delivery times, making it ideal for time-sensitive shipments. Whether you're shipping perishable goods or urgent deliveries, air freight ensures swift transit and on-time delivery.

Insurance:

It is highly advisable to obtain cargo insurance to cover the shipment from the origin to the final delivery point.

Environmental Impact:

While air freight offers speed and efficiency, it also has environmental implications due to carbon emissions. As sustainability becomes increasingly important, businesses are exploring ways to reduce the environmental footprint of their supply chains. Options such as carbon offset programs and alternative transportation modes can help mitigate the environmental impact of air freight.

Air-Way bill:

The Air Waybill (AWB) is crucial. Following Customs Clearance for export, the cargo is transferred to the designated airline, either directly by the shipper or through a forwarding company. The airline will receive the cargo and issue an AWB, serving as evidence for the air freight shipment.

Customs Clearance:

Customs Clearance is highly advised to be facilitated by a Custom House Agent (CHA) to ensure the accurate and proper processing of your cargo. The CHA will initiate the filing of a Shipping Bill with the Customs authority, oversee cargo assessment and examination, and secure the issuance of a Let Export Order (LEO) to authorize the shipment of your goods.

Certificate of Origin:

It is typically issued by the Chamber of Commerce, serves to authenticate the origin of goods. This certification is instrumental in securing preferential duties upon arrival at the destination. Always ensure to thoroughly review the documentation with your buyer/importer to address any additional specific requirements that may be necessary.

Recommendation:

Consider engaging a Shipping Forwarding company that offers Custom House Agent (CHA) services as well. This integrated approach allows for streamlined oversight of all activities through a centralized platform, enhancing efficiency and control.

Route Optimization and Transit Times:

Choosing the right routes and airlines can significantly impact transit times and overall efficiency. Factors such as direct flights, transit hubs, and frequency of services play a vital role in optimizing transit routes. By leveraging route optimization strategies, you can minimize transit times and enhance supply chain efficiency.

Destination:

Your buyer/importer has the option to designate a Customs Broker/forwarder at the destination airport to manage clearance and delivery at the final destination. The feasibility of this arrangement will also be contingent upon the terms of your shipment.

Communication and Transparency:

Effective communication is key to successful air freight operations. Maintaining transparent communication channels with airlines, freight forwarders, and other stakeholders ensures smooth coordination throughout the shipping process. Clear communication helps address any issues promptly and ensures timely delivery of shipments.

Delivery:

Your goods will be transported by the airline to the destination airport. Please remember to include copies of all the aforementioned documents along with the cargo for smooth processing.

For the transportation of Dangerous Goods (DG Cargo), supplementary documents will be necessary, such as the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and the Indian Institute of Packaging (IIP) Certificate. Please ensure to provide these additional documents accordingly.

If your business engages in both exports and imports of products, it's essential to seek guidance and support from a reputable freight forwarding company. They can provide you with comprehensive information and assistance to navigate the complexities of international trade effectively.

What are the responsibilities of 4 wheeler custom clearance company?

A 4-wheeler custom clearance agent, also known as a customs broker or clearing agent, plays a crucial role in facilitating the import and export of vehicles by handling various responsibilities. Here are some key responsibilities of a 4 wheeler custom clearance agent:

1) Documentation and Paperwork: Custom clearance agents are responsible for preparing and managing the necessary documentation required for customs clearance. This includes completing forms like the Bill of Entry (BOE) for imports or the Shipping Bill for exports, as well as ensuring all supporting documents, such as invoices, bills of lading, insurance certificates, and packing lists, are accurate and in order.

2) Customs Compliance: Customs regulations and procedures can be complex and subject to frequent changes. Custom clearance agents ensure that all import and export activities comply with the relevant customs laws, rules, and regulations. They stay updated with the latest customs procedures, tariff codes, and other requirements to ensure smooth clearance of the vehicles.

3) Customs Duties and Taxes: Custom clearance agents calculate and advise importers or exporters on the applicable customs duties, taxes, and other charges associated with the import or export of the vehicles. They help clients understand the duty structure, exemptions, and any preferential trade agreements that may apply to reduce the duty burden.

4) Customs Clearance Process: The custom clearance agent interacts with customs authorities on behalf of the importer or exporter. They submit the necessary documents, including the BOE or Shipping Bill, and follow up with customs officers to facilitate the clearance process. They may also coordinate inspections, examinations, and assessments by customs officials.

5) Communication and Coordination: Custom clearance agents act as intermediaries between their clients and various stakeholders involved in the import or export process. They communicate with shipping companies, freight forwarders, insurance providers, customs officials, and other parties to ensure the smooth movement of the vehicles and provide updates to their clients throughout the clearance process.

6) Problem Resolution: In case of any issues or discrepancies during customs clearance, custom clearance agents work to resolve them. They may assist in addressing customs queries, providing additional documentation or information, or resolving disputes related to valuation, classification, or any other customs-related matters.

7) Expertise and Advisory: Custom clearance agents possess in-depth knowledge of customs procedures, regulations, and trade policies. They provide expert advice and guidance to clients regarding the most efficient and cost-effective ways to clear the vehicles through customs while ensuring compliance with all legal requirements.

It's important to note that custom clearance agents are not employees of the customs authorities but are private individuals or firms authorized by the government to act on behalf of importers and exporters in customs-related matters. Their expertise and experience help navigate the complexities of customs clearance, saving time and ensuring a smooth import or export process for four-wheelers.

Customs Brokers Can Help Make Your Customs Clearance Easy

There have been many changes implemented to importing and exporting procedures, post Brexit. It can be difficult for an individual that’s not regularly dealing with customs and HMRC, to understand all the possible issues that may arise throughout the process. There is correct documentation that must be presented, licences, customs codes etc, and if any misstep is made, then delays can occur which may have a direct impact on your customer relationships. When a shipment is imported or exported, the individual (or company) responsible for shipping the goods must provide documentation which confirms that all the custom duties have been paid and that the shipment can be processed. Customs Clearance is often complex, differing from one country to the next, and each time goods enter a country, the Customs Clearance process must be enacted again. The good news is you can make the whole thing much easier by having a customs broker on your team.

The Role of a Customs Agent / Broker

So who, or what, is a customs broker? A customs broker can be an individual or a company that is authorised to assist with importation and customs procedures. They can organise custom entries and payment of duties and can facilitate services between HM customs and excise and those wishing to import / export. They have a deep understanding of the rules, laws and legislations that govern customs and are the perfect partner to work with if you’re looking to make international trade simpler and easier.  Essentially, the role of a customs agent is to:

Supply HM customs and excise with import/export customs declarations

 Facilitate payment of import duties, VAT and excise duty on behalf of those wishing to import / export their goods.

Provide guidance on legal aspects that govern custom activities, such as licenses for the trade of hazardous goods.

Classify and evaluate goods using appropriate commodity codes.

Help with documentation and submission of paperwork that aid customs clearance processes.

Use their knowledge and expertise to help expedite the process of customs clearance, saving you time and money.

The Cost of Working with a Customs Broker

The services of customs brokers will vary depending upon the services they offer. Before choosing a customs agent, it is advisable to talk to them in depth and establish if they will suit your needs and requirements. Customs brokers fees will depend on :

The product you are trading

Their value and point of origin

The services you use to export your goods (i.e. air, sea or road)

The destination of your goods (ie. airport or seaport)

Customs clearance charges

Warehouse charges if required during customs clearance

Government agency fees

The fee for the customs broker

Any delivery costs for further transportation of goods.

Always make sure of the specific services that your agency is providing, and which charges and fees are covered before you enter into a contract with them.
