FAQ
DSV provides a range of transport solutions, including air freight, sea freight, and XPress deliveries. 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 offer XPress services, where shipments are prioritized for maximum expedited transit times.
How long does shipping to and from Chile take?
Air freight to Chile typically takes 2 to 7 days, depending on the route and customs clearance. Sea freight from Rotterdam or Antwerp to major Chilean ports such as San Antonio and Valparaíso generally takes 35 to 40 days, depending on the exact shipping route and potential transshipment stops. With DSV’s advanced track & trace solutions, you can monitor your shipments in real time, ensuring full visibility into their location and transit progress.
What are the transport costs for shipping to and from Chile?
Transport costs depend on factors such as volume, weight, shipping method, and import duties. Additional charges may apply due to fuel surcharges, seasonal rate fluctuations, and port or airport fees. Contact us for a tailored quote.
What documents are required for shipping to Chile, and what are the customs regulations?
Shipping to Chile generally requires a commercial invoice, packing list, Bill of Lading (B/L) or Air Waybill (AWB), and, in some cases, a certificate of origin. Certain goods, such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and food products, may require additional permits and must comply with the regulations of the Servicio Nacional de Aduanas and other government agencies. DSV provides comprehensive customs clearance support to ensure a smooth and efficient import process.
Which ports and airports in Chile are most used for transport?
For sea freight, the key ports are San Antonio, Valparaíso, and Coronel, which have direct connections to Europe, Asia, and North America. For air freight, we use Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport (SCL) in Santiago, Chile’s main air cargo hub. With our presence in these major logistics hubs, we ensure fast and efficient transport solutions.
What are the advantages of Chile as a logistics hub in South America?
Chile boasts a stable economy, strategic location, and one of the most advanced logistics infrastructures in Latin America. Key ports such as San Antonio and Valparaíso serve as major gateways for international trade, offering direct shipping connections to North America, Europe, and Asia. With various free trade agreements (FTAs), including the EU-Chile Free Trade Agreement, businesses benefit from reduced import duties and faster customs clearance. Santiago, Chile’s economic center, offers excellent air freight and distribution facilities, making it an ideal hub for companies optimizing their supply chain in South America. DSV provides strategic logistics solutions and multimodal transport services, helping businesses leverage Chile’s strong trade position.
