  • Sea Freight: Typically takes around 20 to 30 days. This method is more cost-effective for larger shipments but slower compared to air freight.
  • Air Freight: Usually takes 5 to 10 days. This method is faster and suitable for urgent shipments.

Factors such as weather conditions, customs clearance efficiency, and specific shipping routes can influence these times. Consulting with your freight forwarder for precise estimates and to anticipate potential delays is advisable.

  • Weight and Volume: Larger and heavier shipments incur higher costs due to the space they occupy and their weight.

  • Destination: Costs vary depending on the final delivery location within Guam.
  • Additional Services: Including customs clearance, insurance, and warehousing, which add to the overall cost.

Request quotes from multiple freight forwarders to compare services and additional costs for value-added services they may offer.

Air shipping is ideal when:

  • Urgent Delivery: Goods need to arrive quickly.
  • High-Value Goods: Items are valuable and require secure, fast transportation.
  • Perishable Goods: Items like food or flowers that have a short shelf life.
  • Smaller Shipments: Suitable for lighter, smaller shipments where cost per unit is manageable.

  • Type of Goods: Different goods have different tariff rates.
  • Value of Goods: Taxes and duties are usually calculated as a percentage of the total value of the goods.
  • Customs Declarations: Ensure all documentation is accurate to avoid any discrepancies during the customs process.

It’s advisable to consult with a customs broker or your freight forwarder to get detailed information on applicable duties and taxes for your specific shipment.

  • LCL (Less than Container Load): Suitable for smaller shipments that do not fill a container. It is cost-effective for smaller quantities as you only pay for the space you use.
  • FCL (Full Container Load): Ideal for larger shipments that fill an entire container. It provides exclusive use of the container, which can be more economical for large volumes and offers better security and control over the goods.

Consider the volume and nature of your shipment, as well as your budget, to determine which option is best for you. Your freight forwarder can provide advice based on your specific needs.

Tracking your shipment involves:

  • Online Tracking Systems: Most freight forwarders offer online tracking for real-time updates.
  • Tracking Numbers: Use the provided tracking number to monitor the shipment’s progress through the forwarder’s website or app.
  • Regular Updates: Stay in touch with your freight forwarder for regular status updates and notifications on any changes or delays.

Ensure you have the necessary tracking information and contact details to monitor your shipment effectively.

Necessary documents include:

  • Commercial Invoice: Details the goods and transaction.
  • Packing List: Lists the contents and packaging details.
  • Bill of Lading (for sea freight): Proof of shipment and contract between shipper and carrier.
  • Air Waybill (for air freight): Contract between shipper and airline.
  • Certificate of Origin: Specifies the origin of the goods.
  • Import Licenses or Permits: Required for certain goods. The freight forwarder can assist with documentation.

Ensure all documents are accurate and complete to facilitate smooth customs clearance and delivery.
