DG LCL to Sweden: what the numbers mean

LCL is charged on the greater of actual volume and the 2 CBM minimum, so a 1 CBM shipment still bills as 2 CBM. Gothenburg prices at USD125/CBM with a 45-day transit. Malmo and Stockholm price at USD160/CBM with a 50-day transit, because both relay through Rotterdam and then through Gothenburg. No Swedish port has a direct call from Shanghai.

Ocean freight is only part of the invoice. Add the RMB local charge package, VGM and the new ENS filing per bill of lading, the EUR460/BILL transshipment handling fee, the destination lithium battery surcharge where it applies, and the USD200 Class 2 destination surcharge.
