DG LCL to Cambodia: what the numbers mean
Both Cambodian ports quote the same ocean rate of USD250/CBM with a 2 CBM minimum, so a 1 CBM shipment still bills as 2 CBM. Neither port has a direct sailing: cargo relays through Singapore, then carries on to Phnom Penh in 23 days or Sihanoukville in 21 days.
Because the relay runs through Singapore, the booking also carries the PSA grade fixed by the local authority. Both ports here are graded PSA3, which sets the transshipment fee at USD250/BILL for Phnom Penh and USD200/BILL for Sihanoukville. Add the RMB local charge package and VGM per bill of lading.
