Transport Hong Kong

DSV provides air freight, sea freight, XPress, and multimodal transport solutions for shipping to and from Hong Kong. Additionally, we offer warehousing, distribution, and customs clearance to streamline your logistics processes. Air freight is the best option for time-sensitive shipments, while sea freight offers a cost-effective solution for large volumes. For urgent deliveries, we provide XPress services, where shipments are prioritised for maximum expedited transit times.

Air freight to Hong Kong typically takes 1–5 days, depending on the route and customs clearance. For sea freight from Rotterdam or Antwerp to the Port of Hong Kong, one of the busiest ports in the world, transit times generally range between 45 and 60 days, depending on the exact shipping route and any stopovers.
With DSV’s advanced track & trace solutions, you can monitor your shipments in real time, always giving you full visibility of your transport’s location and progress.

Transport costs vary depending on volume, weight, the chosen transport method, and import duties. Feel free to contact us for a customised quote.

Hong Kong operates as a Special Administrative Region of China with its own economic and customs policies. As a free trade zone, Hong Kong does not impose import duties or VAT on most goods, whereas China enforces stricter customs regulations and trade restrictions. This makes Hong Kong a strategic logistics hub for international trade and transshipment to China.
For transport to Hong Kong, various documents are required to ensure smooth customs clearance. Typically, a commercial invoice, packing list, and a Bill of Lading (B/L) or Air Waybill (AWB) are necessary. Depending on the nature of the goods, a certificate of origin may be required to benefit from trade agreements.
Companies shipping goods to China via Hong Kong benefit from faster customs clearance and efficient logistics connections. However, goods entering China from Hong Kong are treated as international imports and may be subject to import duties, VAT, and additional inspections by Chinese customs.
DSV offers specialised transport routes and customs solutions to facilitate the smooth transshipment of goods from Hong Kong to China. With our local expertise, we assist with documentation, permits, and compliance with Chinese import regulations, ensuring your shipments are processed efficiently and reach their destination without delays.

For sea freight, the Port of Hong Kong is one of the largest and most efficient container ports in the world. For air freight, we utilise Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA), a key global logistics hub for cargo transportation.
With our strong presence in these major logistics hubs, we ensure fast and efficient transport solutions.

Hong Kong is a strategic logistics hub, home to one of the busiest ports in the world and a leading airport for air freight. With fast customs clearance, excellent infrastructure, and direct access to the Chinese market, Hong Kong serves as an ideal gateway for international trade and transshipment across Asia.
