It would not be cost-effective to hire a full container for such a small load. In this case, choosing LCL freight allows you to ship your goods at a lesser cost, only paying for the space you occupy in the container.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Cost Implications:<\/strong> With LCL, you can enjoy reduced shipping costs as you're not hiring a whole container. It provides you with the freedom to manage your shipment size according to the demand while keeping your costs down. However, keep in mind that LCL freight charges might be higher per CBM compared to FCL (Full Container Load) due to additional handling involved.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-9618-7-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-9618-7-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"13\" ><div class=\"custom-colors featured-widget panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-9618-7-1-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FCL_Full_Container_Load\"><\/span>FCL: Full Container Load<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Definition: <\/strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\"><a style=\"color: #920d12\" href=\"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/sea-freight-services\/#LCL_Less_Than_Container_Load_%E2%80%93_Container_groupage:~:text=FCL%20(Full%20Container%20Load)%20%2D%20Full,the%20discretion%20of%20the%20customer.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>FCL or Full Container Load<\/strong><\/a><\/span> is a type of shipping where an entire container is exclusively used for a single shipment. It ensures the safety of goods, as the container remains sealed from origin to destination.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">When to Use: <\/strong>This option is cost-effective when dealing with high-volume shipments. Typically, if your cargo is more than <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><strong>13\/14\/15 CBM<\/strong><\/span>, choosing FCL over LCL (Less than Container Load) becomes more economical.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Example: <\/strong>For instance, if a UK-based furniture company is shipping a large batch of chairs and tables to Bahrain that fills more than half a 20'ft container, opting for FCL shipping is a wise choice. It consolidates their shipment and secures the goods from potential damage.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Cost Implications: <\/strong>Although the upfront fcl shipping quote may seem higher, the cost per unit shipped is lower for larger quantities. Furthermore, you have the flexibility of choosing between a smaller 20'ft container and a larger 40'ft container based on your cargo size, adding to the cost-effectiveness of FCL. Costs include container fees, customs clearance, and any duties applicable, all of which can often be negotiated for large volume shipments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-9618-8\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-9618-8\" ><div id=\"pgc-9618-8-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-9618-8-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"14\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-9618-8-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Unlock hassle-free shipping<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">Shipping cargo from UK to Bahrain has never been easier with DocShipper's tailored freight-forwarding solutions.

Whether it's a trove of precious jewellery or hard-to-find auto parts, air freight excels at delivering small, high-value goods swiftly. Highlighting speed, it's akin to hopping on a direct express train, bypassing the slow crawl of a cargo ship. However, the ticket to this express train isn't always straightforward. It's easy to fumble when estimating shipping costs. Mistaking actual weight for volumetric weight? That's a pocket gouger. Unfamiliar terms and pitfalls can transform air freight into a tedious maze. Let's unravel this knot of common mistakes, ensuring your pocketbook stays healthy while your goods reach safely.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-9618-12-1-1\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"24\" ><div class=\"custom-colors panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-9618-12-1-1\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Air_Cargo_vs_Express_Air_Freight_How_should_I_ship\"><\/span>Air Cargo vs Express Air Freight: How should I ship?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Pondering on whether to send your goods via air cargo or express air freight from the UK to Bahrain? Your business needs might just dictate that choice.

Mastering this calculation involves understanding the components involved, namely the country of origin, the HS code (Harmonized System code), the customs value of your goods, the applicable tariff rate, and any other applicable taxes or fees.<\/p>\n<p>Now, where does our journey into customs calculation start? It begins with the identification of the country where the goods were manufactured or produced - the country of origin. This is the kickoff point, as the origin largely influences the customs tariff rates that Bahrain, your destination, will apply to your import. To crack this part of the equation, don\u2019t just think about where your item was shipped from, but rather where it was actually made.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-9618-20-0-2\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"48\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 1 - Identify the Country of Origin<\/h3>\n<p>Knowing your product's <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><strong>Country of Origin<\/strong><\/span> - here the United Kingdom - is a key first step before delving into the Harmonized System (HS) code, and here's why.<\/p>\n<p>Firstly, it determines eligibility for trade agreements. UK-Bahrain trade relations fall under the <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><strong>GCC-UK Free Trade Agreement<\/strong><\/span>, which can lower or eliminate customs duties. Secondly, it affects tariff classifications. Bahrain Customs may levy different duties on similar products from different origins. Thirdly, clear origin identification minimises potential customs disputes. Fourthly, certain products from specific nations might face import restrictions. Lastly, it's integral for compliance, as incorrect origin declaration can result in penalties.<\/p>\n<p>UK exports face few restrictions entering Bahrain, but stuff like pork products and alcohol are barred due to cultural considerations. To navigate these rules flawlessly, we recommend clearly labelling all your items and conducting thorough research before shipping. This step might seem obvious, but it's the bedrock of your importing journey.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-9618-20-0-3\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"49\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 2 - Find the HS Code of your product<\/h3>\n<p>The <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><a style=\"color: #920d12\" href=\"https:\/\/hts.usitc.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Harmonized System (HS) Code<\/strong><\/a><\/span> is a standardized number used across the globe to classify traded products. Developed by the World Customs Organization, it's primarily used in import and export processes, helping to identify the nature of goods, calculate duties and taxes, and fulfill customs declaration procedures.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #920d12\"><strong>If you're wondering where to find this vital information, your supplier is typically the best starting point.<\/strong><\/span> They are often well-versed in these codes because they're so closely involved in the import-export operations and understand the specific regulations associated with their product.<\/p>\n<p>However, if getting the HS Code from your supplier isn't an option, fear not! You can follow these easy steps:<\/p>\n<p>1. Visit this <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><a style=\"color: #920d12\" href=\"https:\/\/hts.usitc.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Harmonized Tariff Schedule<\/strong><\/a><\/span> tool.<br \/>\n2. Use the tool's search bar to enter your product's name.<br \/>\n3. Check the \u2018Heading\/Subheading\u2019 column in the returned table. The HS Code for your product will be listed there.<\/p>\n<p>As you embark on this process, take special note: accuracy is of the utmost importance. Using an incorrect HS Code has repercussions, potentially causing delays in the shipment or even worse, attracting fines. So ensure you take your time in searching and selecting the right HS Code.<\/p>\n<p>Here's an infographic showing you how to read an HS code.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-9618-20-0-4\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"50\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-987 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/11\/hs-code-ananas.png\" alt=\"hs code uk\" width=\"640\" height=\"272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/11\/hs-code-ananas.png 640w, https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/11\/hs-code-ananas-300x128.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-9618-20-0-5\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"51\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 3 - Calculate the Customs Value<\/h3>\n<p>Understanding the customs value of your shipped goods is an essential part of your import process. It's not simply the price you paid for your goods, but actually comprises the complete cost experienced at a 'CIF' basis - <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><strong>Cost, Insurance, and Freight<\/strong><\/span>. Say you bought goods worth $5000 from the UK, paid $700 for shipping, and an additional $300 for insurance. Your customs value isn't the $5000, but rather $6000, the total CIF value. So, when you're dealing with customs clearance in Bahrain, remember to factor in these additional costs to avoid any unexpected financial surprises.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-9618-20-0-6\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"52\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 4 - Figure out the applicable Import Tariff<\/h3>\n<p>Import tariffs are a type of tax imposed by a country on goods imported from abroad. They're designed to add a cost to imported goods to make them less competitive against domestic products. Bahrain, being a member of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), follows the GCC Unified Customs Law, which sets standard import duty at 5% with some exceptions.<\/p>\n<p>To determine the tariff for your goods shipped from the UK, you can utilize the UK's own tariff identification tool found here: <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><a style=\"color: #920d12\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/trade-tariff\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>UK Trade Tariff<\/strong><\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Here's a simple step-by-step process:<\/p>\n<p>1. Enter the <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><a style=\"color: #920d12\" href=\"https:\/\/hts.usitc.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Harmonized System (HS) code<\/strong><\/a><\/span> identified earlier and select the country of origin.<br \/>\n2. The tool will display the corresponding duties and taxes applied to this product.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>Let's consider, for instance, a product with HS code 6105 (men's shirts, knit or crochet). The tool shows us that the tariff rate is 12%. If your goods have a Cost, Insurance, and Freight (CIF) value of $10,000, then your import duty would be:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>Import Duty = CIF Value ($10,000) x Tariff Rate (12%) = $1,200<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Understanding these tariffs and how to calculate them is crucial. They add to your shipping costs and pricing strategies, ultimately shaping your profits and competitiveness in the Bahrain market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-9618-20-0-7\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"53\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 5 - Consider other Import Duties and Taxes<\/h3>\n<p>Beyond the standard tariff, your goods may be subject to additional import duties based on their origin and nature. For instance, items could attract an excise duty\u2013applied on specific goods like alcohol or tobacco, or anti-dumping taxes\u2013imposed on cheap imports that could unfairly disrupt local markets.<\/p>\n<p>Let's take a hypothetical scenario: <span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>you might be importing machinery worth $100,000. If an excise duty of 10% applies, you'll need to budget an extra $10,000.<\/strong><\/span> Remember, this is merely an example to illustrate the potential impact of these duties and real rates may vary.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>Without a doubt, the key charge to bear in mind is the Value Added Tax (VAT). In Bahrain, the standard VAT rate is 5 %. So, if the cost, insurance, and freight (CIF) value of your goods is $200,000, you should anticipate to pay an additional $10,000 as VAT.<\/strong> <\/span>Be aware that exceptions may apply, and rates might change, so always seek the most updated information.<\/p>\n<p>Tackling these extra costs may appear challenging, but with careful planning and budgeting, it's entirely feasible. Always be prepared, stay informed, and above all, seek expert advice to navigate the complexities of international trade.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-9618-20-0-8\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"54\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 6 - Calculate the Customs Duties<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #920d12\"><a style=\"color: #920d12\" href=\"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/customs-clearance-services\/#:~:text=to%20contact%20us!-,Step%202%20%2D%20Determine%20the%20customs%20duties,-Here%20is%20a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Customs duties<\/strong><\/a><\/span> in Bahrain for UK imports depend on three factors: customs value, VAT, and anti-dumping taxes. To calculate customs duties, first establish the <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><strong>customs value (value of goods + insurance + freight)<\/strong><\/span>. Then, apply a 5% duty to this value. If VAT applies (also 5%), apply it to the sum of the customs value and duty. If an anti-dumping tax is applicable, it must be included, as well as any Excise Duty, which varies per product type.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>For instance, if you're importing goods worth $10,000 with insurance and freight at $2,000, the customs value becomes $12,000. The duty is then $600 ($12,000 5%). Thus, you pay $600 in duties with no VAT.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>If VAT applies, add duty to the customs value, bringing it to $12,600. Then calculate 5% VAT on this ($630). Hence, total payable taxes are $1,230.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>With an anti-dumping tax (let's say 10%) and 15% Excise Duty, these become $1,200 and $1,890 respectively. This brings your total duties and taxes to $4,320.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>We understand this is complex, but don't worry!

Looking to streamline this further? Telex release is a ticket you might want to grab.

One essential tool in your navigation kit is the Packing List. As a shipper, it's your responsibility to provide a meticulous, accurate Packing List. Think of it like a blueprint for your shipment: it details the weight, measurements, and contents of your goods. Knowing how many solar panels or sacks of barley you're shipping and their exact specifications isn't just helpful \u2013 it's required for sea and air freight. Just remember when ABC Industries shipped machine parts without a clear Packing List: their shipment was delayed at Manama port, costing time and money. Leave no room for such confusion; precise information keeps your cargo moving and gets it to its Bahrain destination on time. So, double-check that <span style=\"color: #0e465f\"><a style=\"color: #0e465f\" href=\"https:\/\/docshipper.co.uk\/en\/packing-services\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Packing List<\/strong><\/a><\/span> - it's your ticket to a smooth shipping journey.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-9618-23-0-3\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"62\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Commercial_Invoice\"><\/span>Commercial Invoice<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The <span style=\"color: #0e465f\"><strong>Commercial Invoice<\/strong><\/span>, your trade passport when shipping between the UK and Bahrain, carries pivotal details like seller info, buyer info, description and value of goods. Missteps on this document easily derail your shipment at customs. So, cross-check details with your Bill of Lading and Packing List to ensure consistency. For instance, if you're shipping Antique Furniture, not only should the description match across all documents, but proper HS codes should also align. Remember, an under-declared or mis-declared invoice directly impacts the customs duty, incurring penalties. An invaluable tip? Leverage digital tools for creating robust, error-free Invoices, shaping seamless customs encounters.

So, think of the CO as your product's passport - without it, your product can't reap the travel benefits. Ensure accuracy on it, as discrepancies can lead to costly delays and fines.
