In air cargo transportation, security is essential. To ensure it and make your shipments more efficient, you can apply for Known Consignor status. This status, obtained through a positively completed basic security screening, assumes that your procedures comply with common security rules and standards. As a result, not all shipments are subject to screening, preventing delays and saving additional costs. Neele-Vat Air is your partner in air cargo transportation and can assist you in obtaining this status, putting safety and efficiency first.

What role does air freight play in e-commerce logistics?

Want to know more? Read the article here.
How does customs clearance work for air cargo?
With air cargo, customs clearance begins even before departure: your shipment receives an electronic declaration that is checked by customs. For both exports and imports, documents are submitted (such as commercial invoices and customs declaration), goods are checked and only then released for loading or delivery. Proper and timely customs clearance speeds up the process and prevents delays and additional costs. Want to know more? Read the article here.
When do you choose combined air and ocean freight solutions?
You choose combined air and ocean freight solutions when you want to take advantage of the benefits of both modes: lower costs than air freight alone and faster transport than ocean freight alone. This is ideal for shipments that are not extremely urgent but need to arrive faster than via ocean freight only, or when flexibility and cost efficiency are important in the supply chain.
