How long does air freight to Germany take?

How much does air freight to Germany cost?

As a reference, shipments around 100 kg run about $6.35–$8.47/kg and around 500 kg about ~$2.10/kg. These are indicative rates from public route calculators, not a firm quote: the final price depends on chargeable weight, urgency and cargo type.

What is the main cargo airport in Germany?

Frankfurt (FRA), which handled around 2.1M tonnes in 2025 (+1.1% year on year), Europe's busiest cargo airport (Fraport, official 2025 traffic figures). We also work with Munich (MUC).

What customs paperwork does a shipment to Germany need?

It clears through German Zoll customs and an EU EORI number, with the same import VAT and TARIC classification rules used across the EU. We prepare the air waybill (AWB), commercial invoice and packing list, and coordinate clearance with Zoll at both ends.

What kind of cargo ships by air to Germany?

All kinds, but mostly urgent or high-value cargo: Germany's automotive, machinery and industrial manufacturing sectors are frequent air cargo shippers.

Is air cargo insured?

Carriers only accept limited liability for loss or damage, capped per kilo or per package under international conventions, so the freight rate is not full cover. Cargo insurance is a separate policy based on the cargo value: under CIF and CIP the seller buys it, under other Incoterms the buyer decides. Tell us the cargo value when you request the quote and coverage is settled before booking.
