What are my options for shipping to the Caribbean and worldwide destinations?
Transpakship are able to arrange a shipping service to most Caribbean and worldwide destinations, usually on a port only basis, although other services may be appropriate dependent upon the destination. We would advise you to contact us to check what services are available for your shipment to the Caribbean and worldwide destinations.
Shipping to the Caribbean and worldwide, port only (Ex arrival consignee) - This is the cheapest way of shipping to the Caribbean and other worldwide destinations and covers collection and shipping to the Caribbean, however all charges once the goods have arrived at the port will be the responsibility of the people receiving the goods in your chosen destination.
Shipping to the Caribbean and worldwide, cleared (Arrival cleared) - This method of shipping to the Caribbean is designed to make it as easy as possible for you to arrange your shipment. This service includes collection, shipping, wharfage and clearance in your chosen Caribbean destination. Although we try to cover as many charges as possible, we regretfully cannot cover Customs Duty. Using this service to ship to the Caribbean will mean that, with the exception of Customs Duty and any required storage, all charges will have been paid by the shipper. We advise you to contact us to check if this option is possible before planning your Caribbean shipment.
Shipping to the Caribbean and worldwide, door to door (Paid to destination) - Why not take advantage of our door to door service, and leave all of the hassle to us. As with the above shipping to the Caribbean, cleared, this service covers all of the charges with the exception of Customs Duty and any potential storage. Although attendance at the port in your chosen destination is still necessary, if you choose to ship to the Caribbean door to door, once the relevant Customs duty has been paid onward delivery to your residence will be arranged at the earliest convenience.
Should I insure my Caribbean shipment?
Although you can trust your shipments with Transpakship we do advise that insurance is taken out, to avoid any unforeseen problems and circumstances that can happen beyond our control. Please feel free to contact our office for the current comprehensive insurance rates we can offer.
What should I expect at the port?
If you choose Transpakship to handle your shipment to the Caribbean, our agent at the destination port will contact you, or your representative in the Caribbean, when your goods arrive to advise what day to attend the port to commence clearance. You will require proof of ID, such as a passport or driving licence and cash for any duty and charges payable. Certain ports may require additional information, please see news to check what information is required for your Caribbean or worldwide shipment.
I want to ship a vehicle to the Caribbean, is this possible?
It is wise to firstly begin with contacting the Embassy or High Commission of the desired country to establish what the duty rates are and how your circumstances fit the relevant criteria. From there we would be delighted to quote for your shipping requirements.
