Air freight weight charges:

Charges will be referring between actual weight and volumetric weight which is higher.

According to IATA regulations, the volumetric weight is calculated for parcel under 1 cubic foot*. If the weight of the consignment exceeds the actual weight, the freight will be calculated based on the volumetric weight

Example 1:

Size of parcel: 78cm (L), 40cm (W), 35cm (H)

Actual weight: 15kg

Volumetric weight = 78 x 40 x 35 ÷ 6000 = 18.2kg

Volumetric weight = 19kg

So the weight charges is 19kg referring to the volumetric weight which is higher than actual weight.

Example 2:

Size of parcel: 78cm (L), 40cm (W), 35cm (H)

Actual weight: 30kg

Volumetric weight = 78 x 40 x 35 ÷ 6000 = 18.2kg

Volumetric weight = 19kg

So the weight charges is 30kg referring to the actual weight which is higher than volumetric weight.

Note:

Parcel below 1kg will be charged under minimum volumetric weight as 1kg.

Parcel exceeds 70kg, single side exceeds 120cm x 100cm x 100cm, extra charges will be charged as overweight. Please do not hesitate to contact us for the above situation.
