Costs & Pricing

UK port handling, ocean freight, BAF (fuel surcharge), carrier security and documentation fees. UK collection and destination charges itemised separately for transparency.

Destination port handling (THC), customs clearance fee, import duty, VAT, agent commission, onward delivery. We estimate all of these on the quote and confirm with the destination agent.

Ocean freight is VAT zero-rated as an international export service. UK collection and UK port handling carry standard 20% VAT — itemised on your invoice.

Bunker Adjustment Factor — the fuel cost component, reset monthly by most carriers based on VLSFO prices. Typically £40–90 per RoRo car on UK–Africa lanes; $200–400 per TEU on container.

Fleet bookings (3+ vehicles), repeat trade customers and combined RoRo+container shipments on the same booking attract negotiated rates. Just ask your coordinator.
