Shipping FAQs
Which shipping method should I choose?
Express courier is best for samples and small orders, air freight for medium bulk orders that are time-sensitive, and sea freight for large orders where cost per unit matters most. We'll recommend the best option for your shipment.
Is shipping included in your product price?
Product prices are usually quoted EXW or FOB. Shipping is quoted separately based on weight, volume, method and destination, or we can give you an all-in DAP or DDP price.
Who pays import duties and VAT?
Under EXW, FOB, CIF and DAP the buyer pays import duties and taxes. Under DDP we arrange and include them in the shipping cost.
Can I use my own freight forwarder?
Yes. We can hand over goods at our factory (EXW) or at Karachi port (FOB) to your nominated forwarder, and provide all export documents.
Do you ship to Amazon FBA warehouses?
Yes. We can apply FNSKU and carton labels and pack to Amazon's requirements, then deliver to your FBA warehouse or prep centre.
How will I track my shipment?
We send a tracking number for courier shipments, an air waybill for air freight, or a bill of lading and container number for sea freight, plus updates until delivery.
What happens if goods are damaged in transit?
Please note any damage on the delivery receipt and send us photos within 48 hours. We'll help you file a claim with the carrier or insurer. We recommend cargo insurance for high-value shipments.
How long does shipping a sample take?
Samples are sent by express courier and typically arrive in 3–7 working days after dispatch, depending on your country.
