How are the destination guides written?

Every guide starts from the shipment’s route, not from a service description: which crossing it leaves from, which port or airport it enters, how long the journey usually takes, and what destination customs require before release. These details change from country to country, which is why one guide can’t fit every destination.

Every guide has a fixed section on cost: no flat price, but an explanation of what you are actually charged on — cubic metres for sea, chargeable weight for air — with the site’s tools that calculate your shipment before you ask.

Anything about seasons, peak periods and clearance times is updated whenever procedures change, because what was right last year may not be right today.
