FAQ on the subject of overseas transportation
What types of transportation are used in overseas transport?
In overseas transportation, ships, planes and trains are mainly used. The choice of means of transportation depends on various factors, such as the type of goods, delivery times and costs.
How long does overseas transportation take?
The duration of an overseas shipment depends on the type of transport and the distance. Sea transportation can take several weeks, while air freight is significantly faster, but also more expensive. Rail transportation within continents can also take several days to weeks.
Are there specific regulations for the overseas transportation of dangerous goods?
Yes, the transportation of dangerous goods is subject to special regulations and guidelines, such as the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) regulations for sea freight and the IATA regulations for air freight. These include specific packaging, labeling and documentation.
Can overseas transportation also be booked at short notice?
It is possible to make short-term bookings for overseas shipments, but this depends on the availability of the means of transportation and the urgency of the delivery. With air freight there is often more flexibility, while sea and rail transportation sometimes requires a longer lead time.
What is intermodal transportation?
Intermodal transportation combines different modes of transport to move goods efficiently from a point of origin to a destination. For example, a delivery could begin by ship, then continue by rail and finally be delivered by truck.
