Ports and routes

Most UK container cargo arrives at Felixstowe, Southampton or London Gateway, with onward delivery by road across the country. Air cargo usually goes into London Heathrow. We book the port that fits your buyer's location and the current sailing schedule.

UK customs basics

Your UK buyer needs an EORI number to import. Goods need the correct UK commodity code, and food and plant products may need extra health certificates. India and the UK signed a free trade agreement in 2025, so check with us or your buyer whether preferential rates apply to your goods at the time you ship, and what proof of origin is needed.

Common questions

Which UK port do shipments from India arrive at?

Most containers arrive at Felixstowe, Southampton or London Gateway. We choose based on your buyer's location and the shipping lines' schedules.

An EORI number, the correct commodity code for the goods, and any certificates the product needs. We send a clean invoice and packing list so their customs broker can clear the goods.
