Specialized in exporting Hazardous Chemicals
Indian chemical industry is facing problems in exporting their samples due to safety regulations imposed by IATA.

Dealing with Shipping Lines
Based on our experience, we understand that shipping lines tend to collect abnormally high charges from the importers at every stage of import. These charges are generally paid by customs brokers to the shipping lines and Indian companies reimburse these charges to the Customs Broker. Indian companies are mostly unaware of the costs incurred on this account head they are paid ‘at actuals’. Shipping lines or their agents at destination are collecting huge charges under various account heads Viz..delivery order charges, documentation charges, bill of lading charges, imbalance charges, detention charges, etc.
We have a team of professionals who understand the reasonable charges and are expertise in negotiation with the shipping lines and we help you in bringing down these hidden costs to a great extent.
