Transit times vary depending on the origin port, destination port in Serbia, and the specific service used (FCL or LCL). Generally, you can expect transit times to range from 2 to 6 weeks.
What documentation is required for shipping to Serbia?
Essential documents include a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading (or sea waybill), and potentially certificates of origin or other documents depending on the nature of the goods. We can provide guidance on specific requirements.
Do you offer door-to-door service to Serbia?
Yes, we can arrange door-to-door service, handling all aspects of the shipment from collection at your premises in the UK to delivery at the final destination in Serbia.
What are the main ports in Serbia that you ship to?
While Serbia is landlocked, cargo typically arrives via ports in neighbouring countries (e.g., Koper in Slovenia, Rijeka in Croatia, Thessaloniki in Greece) and is then transported overland to Serbia. We manage the entire process.

Simply contact us with details of your shipment (cargo type, dimensions, weight, origin, and destination), and we will provide you with a competitive quote.
