Sea freight carries most of the goods traded between China and Tanzania. Learn the difference between a full container and shared space, and how to plan your shipment.Usafirishaji wa bahari hubeba sehemu kubwa ya bidhaa kati ya China na Tanzania. Fahamu tofauti kati ya kontena zima na nafasi ya kushirikiana, na jinsi ya kupanga mzigo wako.
Full container or shared space?Kontena zima au nafasi ya kushirikiana?
With a full container load (FCL) you book a whole container for your goods alone. It is sealed at origin and opened at destination, which suits large orders and goods you would rather not mix with other cargo.Kwa kontena zima (FCL) unakodi kontena lote kwa bidhaa zako pekee. Hufungwa mahali pa kuanzia na kufunguliwa mwisho wa safari, hivyo linafaa kwa oda kubwa na bidhaa usizotaka zichanganywe na mizigo mingine.
With less than a container load (LCL) your goods share a container with other shipments and you pay for the space you use. It is the practical choice for shops and small businesses that buy in smaller quantities.Kwa mzigo usiojaza kontena (LCL) bidhaa zako hushirikiana kontena na mizigo mingine na unalipia nafasi unayotumia. Ni chaguo linalofaa kwa maduka na biashara ndogo zinazonunua kwa kiasi kidogo.
How long it takesInachukua muda gani
Sea freight from China to Dar es Salaam usually takes several weeks from loading to arrival, and you should add time for collection from the supplier, consolidation and customs clearance. Plan your stock with this in mind, especially before busy seasons when vessels and ports are fuller.Usafirishaji wa bahari kutoka China hadi Dar es Salaam kwa kawaida huchukua wiki kadhaa kuanzia kupakia hadi kuwasili, na unapaswa kuongeza muda wa kuchukua mzigo kwa muuzaji, kuunganisha mizigo na forodha. Panga bidhaa zako ukizingatia hili, hasa kabla ya misimu yenye shughuli nyingi ambapo meli na bandari hujaa zaidi.
Packing and paperworkUfungashaji na nyaraka
Ask your supplier for strong export cartons, clear marks on every package and an accurate packing list. Goods at sea are stacked and moved many times, and clear marking helps your cargo be found quickly when a shared container is unpacked.Mwombe muuzaji wako katoni imara za kusafirisha nje, alama zinazosomeka kwenye kila kifurushi na orodha sahihi ya vifungashio. Mizigo ya baharini hupangwa na kuhamishwa mara nyingi, na alama zinazosomeka husaidia mzigo wako kupatikana haraka kontena la kushirikiana linapofunguliwa.
