** Chargeable Weight – international shipments are charged based on their actual weight (high density goods) or based on the space the shipment takes up on their designated mode of transport. Below is guidance on how to calculate chargeable weight in kilograms as this is required to be factored into the calculation in determining the most economical means of transport. Note – Some carriers will have variations to the below formulas.
Mode of Transport |
Chargeable Weight* Calculation |
|
|
Intl Parcel |
L x W x H (in CM) Divided by 6,000 for kilos or multiply L x @ x H |
|
(in IN) and divide by 366 for pounds |
|
|
Intl Air (non-parcel) |
L x W x H (in CM Divided by 6000) for kilos multiply L x @ x H (in |
|
IN) and divide by 366 for pounds |
|
|
Ocean LCL/FCL |
Based on Metric Tons or Cubic Meters, whichever is greater. |
|
CBM is calculated by taking the L x W x H in CM and dividing by |
|
1,000,000. |
|
|
