This kind of shipping is typically utilized for <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">cargo volumes<\/span><\/strong> that don't necessitate the utilization of a full container (less than 15 CBM).<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">When to Use:<\/strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\"><strong> LCL shipping<\/strong><\/span> is mostly advantageous when you're dealing with smaller shipments (under 13-15 cubic meters). It offers flexibility since you only have to pay for the space your cargo occupies in the container, and not for the entire container.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Example:<\/strong> Assume you're a furniture manufacturer in the US shipping 10 CBM of chairs to a retailer in Sweden. Instead of booking full container load, which might be costly and inefficient, leverage LCL freight. In this way, your chairs will share <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">container<\/span> <\/strong>space with other products heading the same direction.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Cost Implications:<\/strong> Although LCL shipment cost might be higher per unit, its total cost is often lower for small volumes because you're only paying for the occupied space. This makes it a cost-effective choice for businesses with less cargo to move across international boundaries. However, remember that LCL may involve additional handling charges as goods from various providers are consolidated and deconsolidated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-3562-7-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-3562-7-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"14\" ><div class=\"custom-colors featured-widget panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-3562-7-1-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FCL_Full_Container_Load\"><\/span>FCL: Full Container Load<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Definition:<\/strong> <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\"><a style=\"color: #920d12\" href=\"https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/ocean-freight\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FCL<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, or Full Container Load, is a type of ocean freight wherein a shipment occupies a complete container, either a 20'ft or 40'ft container. FCL shipping streamlines the <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><strong>transport process<\/strong><\/span> since the cargo is kept sealed within the container from its origin to the destination, ensuring higher safety.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">When to Use:<\/strong> FCL proves economical and safer for shippings with larger volume; typically, when the cargo volume surpasses 13\/14\/15 CBM. At this point, it's cost-efficient to get an fcl shipping quote for a whole container, given the bulk you're moving.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Example:<\/strong> Consider you're a furniture company transporting a sizable load of 800 chairs from Chicago to Gothenburg. The chairs are packed in boxes and the total volume exceeds 15 CBM. To maintain the safety of the shipment and save freight costs, an <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">FCL container<\/span><\/strong> is the most sensible choice here.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"color: #0e465f\">Cost Implications:<\/strong> By choosing FCL, you pay a flat rate per container, resulting in a lower cost-per-unit than LCL, particularly for high volume shipments. It\u2019s wise to compare FCL and LCL rates to decide which will suit your shipping budget, given your shipment's volume.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-3562-8\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-3562-8\" ><div id=\"pgc-3562-8-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-3562-8-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"15\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-3562-8-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Unlock hassle-free shipping<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">When it comes to ocean freight between the US and Sweden, making the right choice between consolidation and a full container can be tricky.

Let's dive into how they're determined in air cargo and Express Air Freight services.<\/p>\n<p>In Air cargo, gross weight is the total weight of your package and its contents. Volumetric weight, on the other hand, is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height (in cm) and then dividing the result by a factor of 6000.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000\">For example, let's say you're shipping a box with dimensions 40cm x 30cm x 20cm, and it weighs 10kg. The volumetric weight is (40 x 30 x 20) \/ 6000 = 4kg. Converted to lbs, that's around 22lbs, compared to the gross weight in lbs, which is around 22lbs for the gross and 8.8lbs for the volumetric.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Express Air Freight services work similarly, using the formula (length x width x height) \/ 5000 to calculate the volumetric weight. For the same shipment, the volumetric weight would be 4.8kg or approximately 10.6lbs.<\/p>\n<p>The reason we pay attention to these measurements? Freight charges are determined by comparing the gross and volumetric weight, then charging based on whichever is higher. This helps ensure fair pricing, considering both the weight and space a package occupies during transportation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-3562-16\"

The calculation generally factors in the country of origin, the Harmonized System Code (HS Code), Customs Value, the Applicable Tariff Rate, and any additional taxes or fees relevant to your products. It's a cocktail of specifics, but don\u2019t worry, we're here to guide you through it. <\/p>\n<p>Your maiden step in this journey is to identify the country where your imported goods have been manufactured or produced. This information is vital as it directly influences the rate of duty you will have to pay at the Swedish border. Roll up your sleeves as we take a deep dive into the world of international freight calculation!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3562-20-0-2\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"49\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 1 - Identify the Country of Origin<\/h3>\n<p>Identifying the Country of Origin is a crucial first step, and here's why:<\/p>\n<p>1. Defining Tariff Rates: The country of origin helps determine the applicable duty rates under the Harmonized System (HS). This global system sets the tariffs for different product categories.<\/p>\n<p>2. Applying Trade Agreements: The country of origin matters because the US and Sweden are both members of the World Trade Organization (<strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\"><a style=\"color: #0e465f\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wto.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WTO<\/a><\/span><\/strong>), and they adhere to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) principles. Products originating in the US may also enjoy certain preferential trade terms under the EU\u2019s Generalized Scheme of Preferences (GSP).<\/p>\n<p>3. Managing Import Restrictions: Sweden, as part of the European Union, can set specific import restrictions based on the country of origin. The EU\u2019s Restrictions on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) stands as a good example.<\/p>\n<p>4. Avoid Unforeseen Costs: Understanding country of origin keeps unexpected fees at bay, including antidumping or countervailing duties.<\/p>\n<p>5. Ensuring Compliance: Proper identification can prevent potential legal issues due to non-compliance with import regulations.<\/p>\n<p>For optimal shipping results, soak up all the info about your goods' country of origin before you start the next steps. It helps keep your goods in compliance, avoids sudden expenses, and takes full advantage of trade agreements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3562-20-0-3\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"50\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 2 - Find the HS Code of your product<\/h3>\n<p>The Harmonized System, or HS Code, is a globally recognized system of names and numbers used to classify traded products. These codes are used by customs to identify taxable goods, determine the duties, restrictions or rules, and compile trade statistics.<\/p>\n<p>Often, <span style=\"color: #920d12\"><strong>the simplest way to find the HS code for your specific product is to ask your supplier<\/strong><\/span>. As they are commonly well-versed in the products they import and the related regulations, they can typically provide accurate information.<\/p>\n<p>However, if this pathway is not viable, fret not, as it's still achievable to find this crucial code independently. You can use an HS lookup tool, such as the <span style=\"color: #0e465f\"><a style=\"color: #0e465f\" href=\"https:\/\/hts.usitc.gov\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Harmonized Tariff Schedule<\/strong><\/a><\/span>. Using the tool is pretty straightforward - simply search for your product's name in the search bar provided.<\/p>\n<p>Once you've executed your search, look for the Heading\/Subheading column. The<strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\"><a style=\"color: #0e465f\" href=\"https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/customs-clearance-services\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> HS code<\/a><\/span><\/strong> for your product can be found here.<\/p>\n<p>It's worth noting the significant importance of accuracy when it comes to choosing the appropriate HS Code. A word of caution: incorrect codes can lead to shipment delays and potential fines. Accuracy in this process is not only recommended; it is essential.<\/p>\n<p>Here's an infographic showing you how to read an HS code. This visual guide should help make the process more accessible and understandable.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3562-20-0-4\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"51\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2364 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/07\/HS-CODE-VERSION-ANGLAISE-e1690549142132.png\" alt=\"hs code finder\" width=\"1024\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/07\/HS-CODE-VERSION-ANGLAISE-e1690549142132.png 1024w, https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/07\/HS-CODE-VERSION-ANGLAISE-e1690549142132-300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/docshipper.us\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/07\/HS-CODE-VERSION-ANGLAISE-e1690549142132-768x366.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3562-20-0-5\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"52\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 3 - Calculate the Customs Value<\/h3>\n<p>Understanding the 'Customs Value' can be tricky, especially when it's different from the actual value of your goods. In simple terms, the customs value, also known as the CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) value, includes not only the price of your products but also all the costs incurred to bring them right to Sweden's doorstep. It's like a comprehensive bill featuring the product cost, the international shipping charges, and the insurance against possible damages during transit.<\/p>\n<p>For instance,<strong> if your product costs $500, you spend $200 on shipping and $50 on insurance, your goods' customs value becomes $750<\/strong>. This value is crucial as it serves as the base for duty calculation, ensuring you don't face any surprises during the customs clearance process in Sweden.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3562-20-0-6\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"53\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 4 - Figure out the applicable Import Tariff<\/h3>\n<p>An import tariff, also known as a customs duty, is a tax imposed on goods coming into a country. In your case, shipping goods from the US to Sweden, these tariffs are imposed to protect local industries and are an important factor in calculating the total cost of importing.<\/p>\n<p>Sweden, being part of the European Union, uses the combined nomenclature (CN) system, an eight-digit code system that contains the HS code. To identify the applicable import tariff for your goods, use the <strong><span style=\"color: #0e465f\"><a style=\"color: #0e465f\" href=\"https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/taxation_customs\/dds2\/taric\/taric_consultation.jsp?Lang=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TARIC<\/a><\/span><\/strong> System - European Customs tool. You'd enter the HS code of your product and the country of origin (USA in this case). This will display the duty rates, alongside additional taxes applicable to your product.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000\">For instance, let's say you're importing wooden furniture, which has HS code 940360. Entering this code and USA as the country of origin, the TARIC system might show a duty rate of 2.7%. Add to this your insurance and freight (CIF) costs, say $2000, and you'll foretell your total import cost. It's calculated like this: ($20002.7\/100) + $2000.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A thorough understanding of import tariffs and utilizing the right tools will help avoid unpleasant surprises in terms of costs and ease your cross-border shipping experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3562-20-0-7\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"54\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 5 - Consider other Import Duties and Taxes<\/h3>\n<p>Understanding the full range of import duties and taxes is crucial for smooth, cost-effective shipping. On top of the standard tariff rate, additional import duties may apply depending on your product and its country of origin.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, you might encounter excise duty\u2014an extra tax often applied to goods like alcohol, tobacco, or energy products. Anti-dumping taxes may come into play if your goods are sold at a much lower price than their value, to protect the local market from unfair competition. Figures for these vary greatly so always do your research.<\/p>\n<p>Most crucially, you must consider Sweden's Value Added Tax (VAT). This is a general consumption tax applied to goods and services. In Sweden, the standard rate is typically around 25%, calculated on the customs value of the goods plus transport and insurance costs, and any duties payable (note that this is just an example and may not reflect current rates).<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000\">So, for a $1,000 consignment, you could anticipate a VAT of roughly $250:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000\">1,000 25\/100 = $250<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Diligence in understanding these added costs can save you unexpected charges and ensure that your goods clear customs without a hitch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div id=\"panel-3562-20-0-8\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor\" data-index=\"55\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<h3>Step 6 - Calculate the Customs Duties<\/h3>\n<p>Calculating customs duties for goods shipped from the US to Sweden involves taking into account several factors: the customs value of goods, Value Added Tax (VAT), anti-dumping taxes, and on occasion, Excise Duty.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000\">Here's an example: a shipment of wooden furniture worth $5000 wouldn't attract VAT, but a customs duty of 2.5% would apply. Thus, the payable customs duty would be $50002.5\/100 = $125.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000\">Suppose you're importing electronics worth $8000. Sweden imposes a customs duty of 3% and VAT of 25%. Your duty would therefore be $80003\/100 = $240, and your VAT would be ($8000+$240)25\/100 = $2060.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000\">Lastly, imagine importing a specialty alcoholic beverage, with a customs value of $6000. Alongside a 1.7% customs duty and 25% VAT, Sweden imposes a 20% anti-dumping tax and an Excise Duty of $2 per liter. If your shipment is 500 liters, your customs duty would be $102, VAT $1550.4, anti-dumping tax $1200, and Excise Duty $1000.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>These calculations can seem daunting, but that's where DocShipper steps in.

It's akin to the passport of your shipment, recording details such as type of goods, quantity, source, and destination. The magic happens when the cargo arrives in Sweden. The B\/L (as we insiders call it), officially hands over the ownership from you to the recipient. That\u2019s a big deal; it signifies your shipment has finished its voyage. Nowadays, we have an electronic version, a '<strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Telex release<\/span><\/strong>,' which is faster and cannot get lost. That\u2019s a serious relief when time is of the essence! For air cargo, the equivalent of the B\/L is the <strong><span style=\"color: #920d12\">Airway Bill<\/span> <\/strong>(AWB).

These sectors saw substantial gains, with exports of vaccines, blood, antisera, toxins, and cultures increasing by SEK 916 million (476%), sawn wood by SEK 533 million (640%), and packaged medicaments by SEK 484 million (31.9%).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-3562-28\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-has-style\" ><div class=\"panel-row-style panel-row-style-for-3562-28\" ><div id=\"pgc-3562-28-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-3562-28-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-editor panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"73\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-3562-28-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-editor so-widget-sow-editor-base\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"siteorigin-widget-tinymce textwidget\">\n\t<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt\">Your Next Step with DocShipper<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">The complex world of international shipping between the US and Sweden can be overwhelming.
