Capitalise on the emerging Armenian market with Ocean Cargo's specialist Full Container Load (FCL) shipping solutions.

Customised Solutions for Your Armenian Shipments
While FCL shipping frequently represents the most economical option for substantial shipments, the optimal approach is contingent upon several variables. These include cargo volume, delivery timeframe requirements, and overall budgetary constraints. Our expertise extends beyond FCL to encompass Less than Container Load (LCL) shipping, facilitating the creation of bespoke solutions precisely tailored to your specific requirements. We collaborate closely with you to ascertain the most efficient and cost-effective shipping strategy for your merchandise.
Your FCL Shipment to Armenia: A Structured Process
Our streamlined process ensures a transparent and efficient shipping experience. The process initiates with a detailed consultation to ascertain your specific requirements and provide a precise quotation. Subsequently, we manage the meticulous preparation and collection of your cargo. Rigorous attention is devoted to customs documentation, a critical element in ensuring timely delivery. We then oversee the ocean freight, followed by efficient inland transportation from the designated port to your specified Armenian destination, culminating in final delivery.
Precise Documentation: Facilitating Expedited Customs Clearance
Accurate and timely documentation is essential to mitigate potential delays. This includes crucial documentation such as the Bill of Lading, commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and any requisite permits or licenses. Our team of experienced customs brokers ensures complete adherence to Armenian regulations, significantly accelerating the customs clearance procedure. We proactively identify and resolve potential documentation discrepancies before they escalate, ensuring a seamless flow of your goods.
Strategic Port Selection and Inland Transportation: Ensuring Punctual Delivery
Your goods may arrive at various ports, frequently in Georgia or Russia, predicated on the most efficient routing. We meticulously select the optimal port based on factors encompassing cost, transit duration, and infrastructural capabilities. Our established network of reliable partners ensures seamless inland transportation, guaranteeing the secure and punctual delivery of your cargo to your designated location within Armenia. We utilise a range of transport modalities, including road and rail, to optimise efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
Safeguarding Your Investment: Cargo Insurance for Risk Mitigation
Protecting your valuable cargo is paramount. We strongly advise cargo insurance to mitigate potential risks such as damage, loss, or theft during transit. We can arrange tailored insurance coverage aligned with your specific needs and the assessed value of your goods, providing you with assurance throughout the shipping process. This ensures that you are adequately protected against unforeseen circumstances.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is FCL shipping and when is it the best option?
FCL (Full Container Load) shipping means your goods occupy an entire shipping container. It's generally the most cost-effective option when you have a large volume of cargo that can fill a container, as you only pay for the container itself, regardless of how full it is.
What documentation is required for shipping to Armenia?
Essential documents include the Bill of Lading, commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, and any necessary permits or licenses specific to your goods. Our customs brokerage team can assist you in ensuring all documentation is accurate and compliant with Armenian regulations.
Which ports are typically used for shipments to Armenia?
Due to Armenia being landlocked, shipments often transit through ports in neighbouring countries like Georgia (e.g., Poti or Batumi) or Russia. The specific port used will depend on factors such as cost, transit time, and the origin of your goods.
How long does FCL shipping to Armenia typically take?
Transit times can vary depending on the origin port, the chosen route, and customs clearance procedures. Generally, you can expect sea freight to take several weeks. We will provide you with an estimated transit time based on your specific shipment details.
Do I need cargo insurance for my shipment to Armenia?
While not mandatory, we strongly recommend cargo insurance to protect your goods against potential risks such as damage, loss, or theft during transit. We can arrange comprehensive insurance coverage tailored to your specific needs.
What happens after my goods arrive at the port?
Once your goods arrive at the port, they will undergo customs clearance. Our team will manage this process, ensuring all necessary documentation is submitted and any duties or taxes are paid. After clearance, your goods will be transported inland to your specified destination in Armenia.
