FAQs
Are there Duties and Taxes to pay, and how much will they be?
Many countries allow used household goods and personal effects to enter without duties or taxes. Others are less lenient. Our Customer Service Department will provide general guidelines regarding duties and taxes. Official information can be obtained by contacting the embassy or consulate of the destination country.
How long does it take for our shipment to get to its destination?
Generally surface shipments from the U.S. can arrive at most destinations in 4-6 weeks. Shipments to the Orient can take a week or two longer. Shipments to Australia or New Zealand will take about ten weeks. Air shipments can be cleared and delivered to your door in ten days or less.
There are various levels of service, allowing for faster or slower transit times. Even though "Mother Nature" often has a dramatic affect on schedules, we are flexible and work very closely with our customers to provide the schedules that fit their requirements.
Should I buy insurance coverage?
Replacement value, all risk insurance is available with various deductibles. It is wise to insure an international shipment for the cost to replace it in the country of destination. Additionally, It is possible to insure for the cost of re-shipping a lost or damaged item. A Sea & Air International representative will gladly assist you with more details of insuring your shipment.
Can I ship my car?
Automobiles can be shipped to any country that allowsimportation. Many of the developed countries make importation easy and inexpensive. Some countries discourage importation by assigning high taxes and duties. You will need to provide your original title, as well as the year, make, model, color and Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) of the vehicle.
What about payment?
All international moving shipments of household goods/personal effects must be prepaid (prior to shipping) by cash, certified check or money order. Cost estimates can be made prior to shipping, but the actual cost can not be determined until the weights and dimensions are confirmed. Upon confirmation of the weights and dimensions, you will be notified of the final price and asked to submit your payment before the shipment is released for shipping overseas. |
