You can set reminders, track multiple shipments, and export your tracking list as PDF. Share deadlines with your finance team via WhatsApp for timely action on pending realizations.
CBM (Cubic Meter) measures shipment volume for sea freight (FCL/LCL). Volumetric weight measures shipment volume for air freight, converting dimensions to billable weight. Sea freight uses CBM directly; air freight uses whichever is higher between actual weight and volumetric weight.
Consider: who controls logistics (you or buyer), your capability to arrange shipping, buyer's preference, and risk tolerance. FOB/CIF for sea shipments where seller handles port-to-port. FCA/DAP for air or multimodal. EXW if buyer handles everything. DDP if seller delivers to buyer's door.
The RODTEP estimator provides approximate values based on DGFT notified rates. Actual claims require verification on the DGFT portal. Rates change quarterly. Always cross-check with latest DGFT notifications and consult your CHA for accurate shipping bill declarations.

This happens when your shipment is bulky but light - common for items like electronics packaging, garments, or empty containers. Airlines charge based on volumetric weight to optimize cargo space. Reduce packaging dimensions or consolidate shipments to minimize costs.
