Sea Freight Imports From China to New Delhi

Indian importers who want to ship goods to New Delhi by sea from China can do so quickly and easily thanks to Cleaver Fox professional freight forwarding service. Given that New Delhi, India’s centrally-located capital city, is nowhere near the coast, it may not be your first thought to use seaborne services to get goods from suppliers in the region to the China. However, New Delhi does have its own port, known as Tughlakabad (INTKD), albeit an inland one.

Ideal for containerised goods of all kinds, Tughlakabad is the biggest so-called dry port in the whole country. Having been operational since the 1990s, multiple shipments of containerised goods are sent to the country’s seaports every day from New Delhi heading to some of the busiest seaports in India.

Typically, we will arrange for your goods to enter the port in New Delhi and to clear Indian customs checks at that point. We will then have your imports conveyed to the large container port in Mumbai or those on the coast of Gujarat State, such as Mundra or Porbandar, to name but two. Equally, we can arrange transit of imports to the India via some of the country’s eastern ports, such as Paradip, for example, but this will necessarily entail a longer sea journey across the Indian Ocean.

Whichever staging post is used to transfer your imports onto ocean-going vessels, the operations team at Cleaver Fox will ensure swift progress is made and that the onward journey to the India via the Red Sea and the Suez Canal is conducted in accordance with your delivery expectations.
