Minimum Shipment Requirement

  • Minimum weight: 60kg

  • Charges are based on:

    • Actual weight OR

    • Volumetric weight (whichever is higher)


Understanding Volumetric Weight (Air Cargo Pricing Explained)

volumetric weight formula air cargo length width height divided by 5000
Air cargo charges are based on actual or volumetric weight — whichever is higher.

Air freight charges are based on space as well as weight. If your shipment is bulky but light, volumetric weight will apply.

Volumetric Weight Formula

Volumetric Weight=Length × Width × Height (cm)5000\text{Volumetric Weight} = \frac{\text{Length × Width × Height (cm)}}{5000}

Example

Dimensions: 50cm × 40cm × 30cm
Volumetric weight = 12kg

👉 If actual weight is lower, you will be charged based on volumetric weight.

💡 Tip: Compact packaging reduces cost.
