    Our Sea Freight Solutions

    FCL (Full Container Load)
    For larger shipments where you want full control over the container space. This is often the fastest sea freight option, as the container goes directly from the sender to the receiver without stops for sorting.

    LCL (Less than Container Load)
    Don’t have enough goods for a full container? With our LCL services (groupage), you only pay for the space you actually use. We smartly consolidate your cargo with other shipments, resulting in significant cost savings.

    Customs & Documentation
    The success of international transport stands or falls with the correct paperwork. FCE Logistics takes the complexity of Bills of Lading, certificates of origin, and customs declarations off your hands. This ensures a smooth transit in accordance with current Incoterms.

    FAQ

    How long does sea freight take?

    The duration of sea freight shipping varies, generally ranging from 20 to 45 days. Factors such as peak seasons and unforeseen events can extend this timeframe. We recommend planning in advance to mitigate delays and ensure timely delivery.

    FCL stands for Full Container Load; you rent an entire container for your goods. LCL stands for Less than Container Load; your goods share a container with those of other shippers. LCL is ideal for smaller volumes and is cost-effective, while FCL is often faster for larger consignments.

    At FCE Logistics, transparency comes first. The price is determined by the type of cargo, container size (such as 20ft or 40ft), transport distance, and additional services such as customs clearance, insurance, or pre- and on-carriage by road. You will always receive a clear quote from us with no hidden costs.

    Yes, we offer full "door-to-door" solutions. In addition to sea freight, we arrange road transport for your goods from the port to the final destination, including any temporary storage in strategically located warehouses.

    For international sea freight, documents such as a commercial invoice, packing list, and a Bill of Lading are essential. Depending on the destination and type of goods, additional certificates may be required. The FCE Logistics team guides you through every step and handles the full documentation.
