The shipping rates will depend on the mode of transport selected.
If you’re opting for sea freight, the cost of shipping your cargo is dependent on the sea freight rate. On average, prices can range from $135–$270 per CBM.
For air shipments, the cost will be determined by multiplying the air freight rate by the actual or volume weight of your goods. In general, prices for air freight start from $10 per 500g, with small packages (1–2kg) costing between $30 and $50.

It takes around 2 weeks to ship goods by sea and about 1 – 3 days to ship by air.
However, if your shipment is done during a public holiday in Japan or Singapore, do expect a time lag.

You can pick your preferred shipping method depending on your budget. Sea freight is considered one of the cheapest forms of transportation. It’s charged based on the sea container rate, whereas air freight is charged based on the weight of your goods. You can hence ship a wider variety of weighted goods at competitive rates.
Freight forwarders are often equipped with the right knowledge, skills and expertise to provide the best shipping services. As experts in the industry, they’ll know the best practices. You can expect a peace of mind as these professionals will do their best to meet your expectations.
Shipping services cover most of the international seaports and terminals. This allows a wider coverage for goods to be shipped around. Transshipment services are also available to various smaller seaports and terminals via feeder vessels & barges and inland via rail. Our shipping routes include:
Freight forwarders also provide inventory management to ensure that the correct items are collected, securely stored and delivered. Storage services before and after shipment are offered to importers. Delivery of goods is also done in accordance to the agreement between the freight forwarder company and the importer (you).
Freight forwarders offer insurance services which are necessary during transit. Insurance for the cargo been shipped is essential in case of any mishaps. Taking an appropriate policy and handling the documents involved is tedious but by engaging a freight forwarder, it eases the liability of the importer.
Sea freight is usually much more cost-efficient when it comes to shipping large amounts of goods.
However, air freight may be a cheaper alternative for smaller shipments.
No tax is levied on exports.
All goods brought into Singapore are subject to the Goods and Services Tax (GST) at the current rate of 9% on the total value of your shipment.
Unlike other freight forwarders, we also provide a full range of customs brokerage services.
