It's called 'fcl shipping' because the container is not shared with other shippers.<br><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">When to Use:<\/strong> If you're shipping in high volume - usually more than <span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>14-15 cubic metres (CBM)<\/strong><\/span> - FCL can be the cost-effective and secure option. Since your goods occupy a full container (<span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>20'ft<\/strong><\/span> or <strong><span style=\"color: #008000\">40'ft<\/span><\/strong>), the container is sealed from origin to destination. This ensures the safety of your items and can limit damage potential.<br><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Example:<\/strong> If you're a furniture manufacturer in the UK exporting a large order of sofas to a chain in Vietnam, opting for an FCL container can keep your shipment intact and minimize handling-related damages, compared to sharing a container with different cargoes (LCL).<br><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Cost Implications:<\/strong> An 'fcl shipping quote' can be more complex than just the per-container charge. It often comes down to a cost-per-unit basis. A fully loaded FCL container can deliver a lower price per unit, making FCL shipping cost-effective for larger volumes. Do note, charges like destination port charges are typically flat, regardless of the container size or shipment volume.<\/p>\r\n            \r\n        <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-57ceaede\" data-id=\"57ceaede\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66eeb2d0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"66eeb2d0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"245\" src=\"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/09\/sea-freight-banner.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2682\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/09\/sea-freight-banner.png 744w, https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/09\/sea-freight-banner-300x99.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fb0e1d1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-docshipper-theme-section-title-one-widget\" data-id=\"fb0e1d1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"docshipper-theme-section-title-one-widget.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t        <div class=\"title-area\">\r\n                        <h4 class=\"sec-title style2\">Less container load (LCL)<\/h4>                                        <p class=\"sec-text\"><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Definition: <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/shipping\/lcl-shipping-groupage-less-than-container-load-guide\/#LCL_expedition\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LCL<\/a> <\/strong>or Less than Container Load shipment refers to a shipping mode where multiple shippers' freight share a container.

It grants price advantage for lower volumes, allowing the flexibility to pay only for the space you use instead of paying for an entire container.<br><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Example: <\/strong>A manufacturer in the UK has a shipment of electric parts measuring<strong><span style=\"color: #008000\"> 10 CBM<\/span><\/strong>. Instead of opting for a full container, they use an LCL service. This way, they only pay for the<span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong> 10 CBM<\/strong><\/span> they are using within the shared container, reducing their overall shipping costs.<br><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Cost Implications: <\/strong>The financial benefit of LCL freight is primarily in its flexibility. LCL allows you to manage your costs better, especially if your freight volume varies. However, bear in mind that the cost per CBM for LCL may be slightly higher compared to a Full Container Load (FCL) shipping method due to handling and service charges.<\/p>\r\n            \r\n        <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-3b4ed788 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3b4ed788\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-62d01f24\" data-id=\"62d01f24\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-789c7bea elementor-widget elementor-widget-docshipper-theme-section-title-one-widget\" data-id=\"789c7bea\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"docshipper-theme-section-title-one-widget.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t        <div class=\"title-area\">\r\n                        <p class=\"sec-title style2\">Hassle-free shipping<\/p>                                        <p class=\"sec-text\">Making international shipping effortless is our primary goal at DocShipper.

The same technique is used for both Air and Express Air Freight services. For example, if your shipment including packaging weighs 120 kg, that&#8217;s 264.5 lbs.<\/strong><\/p><br><p><strong>On the other hand, volumetric weight is calculated differently. For Air cargo, the formula is L(cm) x W(cm) x H(cm)\/6000 = volumetric weight(kg). Express Air Freight uses a slightly different formula: L(cm) x W(cm) x H(cm)\/5000 = volumetric weight(kg). Suppose the dimensions of your packaged goods are 110cm100cm90cm. For Air Cargo, your volumetric weight is 165 kg (363.7 lbs). For Express Air Freight, it\u2019s 198 kg (436.5 lbs).<\/strong><\/p><br><p>Your freight charges are based on the higher of the gross and volumetric weight to ensure carriers cover their costs in all scenarios \u2013 dense heavy items use up weight capacity while light, bulky items use up cubic space.

To correctly calculate these requirements, you have to first gather a few key details &#8211; the country of origin where the product was produced, the product&#8217;s HS Code, the Customs Value of the product, the Applicable Tariff Rate and any additional taxes or fees that could apply to the products. Remember, to sail smoothly through this process, the initial step demands identifying the country where the goods were originally manufactured or produced, as this forms the basis of the rest of the calculations. <\/p><br>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-470d9adc e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"470d9adc\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-39369e0a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"39369e0a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br>\t<h3>Step 1 &#8211; Identify the Country of Origin<\/h3><br><p><strong>Country of origin<\/strong> is key in international shipping. Not trivial, but mighty. Here are five reasons why.<\/p><br><p>First up, Customs, they&#8217;re a stickler for rules. Identified wrong, you&#8217;ve got a lengthy, costly delay. Correctly? Smooth sailing, quick clearance at the Vietnamese port.<\/p><br><p>Second &#8211; here comes &#8216;Harmonized System&#8217; or just HS; each code originates from a country, so triple-check your supplier&#8217;s credentials.<\/p><br><p>Third reason, little word, big impact &#8211; &#8216;Tariffs&#8217;. UK-Vietnam free trade agreement means that many goods enjoy preferential tariffs, greatly lowering the import duty.<\/p><br><p>Fourth, import restrictions apply differing since every country plays by their own rules. For instance, UK-made textiles need import licenses in Vietnam, so double-check your product&#8217;s eligibility.<\/p><br><p>Lastly, calculating taxes in advance helps, specially if your consignment&#8217;s in bulk. It&#8217;s all figures game. If you have the correct country of origin, you&#8217;re ahead in line.<\/p><br><p>So, before you dive in, nail the basics. Be Sherlock. Investigate, verify, calculate. Your package, your responsibility. A simple mistake can turn into customs chaos, and we all want to avoid that, right?<\/p><br>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a69ef87b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a69ef87b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-73e8472e elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"73e8472e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br>\t<h3>Step 2 &#8211; Find the HS Code of your product<\/h3><br><p>Understanding the <strong>Harmonized System (HS) Code<\/strong> of your product is the key to a smooth shipping process. The HS Code is a universally accepted classification system for goods, used to standardize and identify products across borders. When you know your HS Code, it allows for accurate declarations to customs authorities, determining applicable taxes and duties, and helping you estimate the total landed cost of your shipment.<\/p><br><p><strong>Normally, the easiest method to find out the HS Code is to ask your supplier. They are undoubtedly familiar with the products they&#8217;re importing\/exporting and the corresponding regulations.<\/strong><\/p><br><p>If this approach isn&#8217;t feasible, don&#8217;t worry. Here, we&#8217;ll guide you through a simple, step-by-step process to find the HS Code:<\/p><br><p>1. Visit the <a href=\"https:\/\/hts.usitc.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Harmonized Tariff Schedule<\/strong><\/a>, a reliable HS code lookup tool.<br \/><br>2. Type the product name into the search bar.<br \/><br>3.

Here&#8217;s a simple explanation. Customs Value is the total amount Customs uses to calculate duties, it&#8217;s not just against the price of the goods. This value is actually the CIF value &#8211; the sum of the cost of the goods, international shipping fees, and insurance costs. <strong>Suppose you have air-freight goods with a price of $1000. If the international shipping comes to $200 and insurance is $50, the Customs Value is $1250, not just $1000! It&#8217;s this amount they&#8217;ll use when working out the duties payable<\/strong>. That seemingly small difference can make a big impact on your overall shipping costs, so always ensure you calculate the Customs Value accurately!<\/p><br>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f073f32e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f073f32e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-22fe36be elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"22fe36be\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br>\t<h3>Step 4 &#8211; Figure out the applicable Import Tariff<\/h3><br><p>An<strong> import tariff<\/strong> is a tax imposed on commodities from one country that enter another country&#8217;s borders. Vietnam, for instance, levies tariffs on goods imported from the UK based on a set tariff schedule.<\/p><br><p>To identify what applies to your product, follow the guide below:<\/p><br><p>1. Visit the UK Government&#8217;s online tool Trade Tariff: look up commodity codes, duty, and VAT rates.<br \/><br>2. Enter the Harmonized System (HS) code you identified in the previous steps, and country of origin.<br \/><br>3. The tool will then display relevant duties and taxes for your product.<\/p><br><p><strong>Let&#8217;s consider a simple example, with a hypothetical HS Code 9403.60, for wooden furniture from the UK. You input the details in the tool and discover a tariff rate of 15%. Let&#8217;s say your Cost, Insurance, and Freight (CIF) costs total $10,000 USD. From this information, you can calculate the exact import duties.<\/strong><\/p><br><p><strong>Import Duty = CIF Value x Tariff Rate = $10,000 x 15% = $1,500<\/strong><\/p><br><p>Thus, you would be required to pay $1,500 in import duties for your cargo of wooden furniture. This understanding equips you to cogently plan for import expenses and navigate through the customs clearance process more easily.<\/p><br>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fe74a564 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"fe74a564\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f1b051ea elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f1b051ea\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br>\t<h3>Step 5 &#8211; Consider other Import Duties and Taxes<\/h3><br><p>Unlike the standard tariff rate, some additional <strong>import duties and taxes<\/strong> can apply when shipping goods from the UK to Vietnam, depending on both the product nature and its origin.<\/p><br><p>Take the excise duty, for instance, which is an internal tax charged on specific goods such as petroleum or alcohol. There are also anti-dumping duties to prevent cheap imported goods from destabilizing the local market, imposed when the export price is significantly lower than the fair market value.<\/p><br><p>Yet another tax to consider is Value Added Tax (VAT), a hefty charge that applies to the cumulative value of the product and any tariffs paid upon entering Vietnam. <strong>For example, if your shipment is worth $20,000 and incurs a 10% tariff ($2000), the 10% VAT will apply to the overall $22,000, costing you an additional $2200.<\/strong><\/p><br><p>Remember, these rates and figures are hypothetical examples to illustrate the point, actual figures could vary. It&#8217;s always prudent to consult with a local customs expert or your logistics partner to get precise rates and make sure you&#8217;re meeting all import duty and tax obligations.<\/p><br>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b4a62465 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"b4a62465\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-04b40c38 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"04b40c38\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<br>\t<h3>Step 6 &#8211; Calculate the Customs Duties<\/h3><br><p>Calculating <strong>customs duties<\/strong> for goods shipped from the UK to Vietnam involves a few factors. Consider the customs value (CV) of your goods, any Value Added Tax (VAT), anti-dumping taxes, and potentially excise duties.<\/p><br><p><strong>Take, for instance, a shipment valued at $1,000:<\/strong><br \/><br><strong>1. With only customs duties of 10%, your costs tally at $1,100 ($1,000 CV + $100 duty).<\/strong><br \/><br><strong>2. Add to this a VAT of 15% and your total rises to $1,265 ($1,100 + $165 VAT).<\/strong><br \/><br><strong>3. Weaving in an anti-dumping tax of 5% and an excise duty of 5%, the final calculation becomes $1,400.95 ($1,265 + $63.25 anti-dumping tax + $72.70 excise duty).<\/strong><\/p><br><p>These calculations are important but can be intricate and sometimes overwhelming.

The <strong>Bill of Lading<\/strong> is your best friend! This official shipping document marks the handover of goods from your business to the shipping line for transit from the UK to Vietnam. It&#8217;s proof of ownership that ensures your cargo arrives as planned. Nowadays, most shippers leverage the telex (electronic) release\u2014a game-changer that speeds up documentation. You&#8217;ll bypass the traditional paper chase, making processing times faster, so your shipment isn&#8217;t stuck idling in port. And if you&#8217;re shipping by air, the Air Waybill (AWB) has a similar role. Practical tip? Always double-check the details on these documents for accuracy\u2014it can make or break your hassle-free shipping experience!

It&#8217;s your obligation to create this crucial document, which must accurately list the details of every item in your shipment, from product descriptions and quantities to weights and dimensions. Think about this as the DNA of your cargo, unique to each shipment. Customs authorities, whether in Cardiff or Can Tho, will scrutinize your Packing List down to the smallest detail. Why? Because it&#8217;s used in determining customs duties and even in inspections. A mismatch between your declared and actual goods? That invites delay, surprise costs, or worse. Imagine: your shipment of handcrafted ceramics, delayed in Ho Chi Minh City port due to unclear descriptions. Not the best way to start your venture in Vietnam, right? Double-checking your Packing List is non-negotiable, whether it&#8217;s for sea or air freight.

These details must align with other shipping documents to avoid discrepancies. For example, if you&#8217;re sending die-cut machines from Birmingham to Hanoi, ensure the HS code matches across all papers.

The CoO showcases the British roots of your products, which can swing preferential customs duty rates in your favour, making trade more cost-effective.

However, since the UK&#8217;s exit from the EU, CE markings are being phased out and replaced with the UKCA (UK Conformity Assessed). So, if you\u2019re shipping goods from the UK, you&#8217;ll need to ensure they carry this UKCA marking. Just like the CE marking, the UKCA is not a quality assurance declaration, but a regulatory market access requirement. In comparison, US standards focus more on quality assurance and testing. Don&#8217;t confuse the two. Understand where your goods will be marketed, and ensure you comply with the right standards. Check out the UK government&#8217;s guide on using the UKCA marking for further instructions.

Register with the relevant UK government platform &#8211; it&#8217;s digital, free, and generally answers in a few days.
