Air vs Ocean — Which is Right for Your Taiwan Shipment?

For weight-to-value ratios above a certain threshold, ocean freight becomes more economical. Our experts will help you choose the right mode for your specific cargo, timeline, and budget.

How long does air freight from Taiwan take?
Airport-to-airport transit is 1–2 days to Japan and Southeast Asia, 1–2 days to the US West Coast, and 2–4 days to the US East Coast and Europe. Door-to-door, allow 3–6 days including pickup, export clearance, destination clearance and delivery.
What is chargeable weight and how is it calculated?
Airlines charge the greater of actual weight or volumetric weight, calculated as length × width × height in centimeters divided by 6,000. A light but bulky 1 cubic meter shipment bills at roughly 167 kg even if it weighs less.
Which Taiwan airports do you operate from?
Taoyuan International (TPE) handles the majority of Taiwan air cargo, followed by Kaohsiung (KHH) and Taichung (RMQ). We also arrange pickup from regional locations and truck cargo to the optimal gateway when it saves you money.
Can you ship temperature-controlled or time-critical cargo?
Yes. We arrange cool-chain handling for pharmaceuticals, orchids, and perishables, on-board courier and next-flight-out services for critical semiconductor parts, and full charters for urgent project cargo.
What items cannot be shipped by air from Taiwan?
Restricted items include undeclared lithium batteries, flammable liquids and gases, and other dangerous goods without proper DG documentation. Many of these can still fly with correct UN packaging and declarations — our DG-certified team handles the paperwork.
Do you offer door-to-door air freight?
Yes. We collect anywhere in Taiwan, manage export formalities, fly on the fastest suitable service, clear customs at destination and deliver — one invoice, one point of contact.
