Sea freight to Bhutan is handled via Indian ports such as Kolkata Port or Mumbai Port, followed by overland transport through India into Bhutan. Full Container Load (FCL) is ideal for bulk cargo, offering dedicated container space and enhanced security. Less than Container Load (LCL) is suitable for smaller shipments, consolidating multiple consignments to reduce costs. Typical transit time from major Chinese ports such as Shanghai, Ningbo, or Shenzhen to Bhutan via India ranges from 25 to 35 days. Logistics Groups ensures smooth customs clearance at Indian ports and efficient overland delivery to Thimphu, Paro, Punakha, and other major cities in Bhutan.
Air freight provides the fastest solution for urgent or high-value shipments. Transit from China to Bhutan generally takes 3 to 6 days, with cargo arriving at Paro International Airport. Air shipments are ideal for electronics, pharmaceuticals, perishable goods, and high-value items, benefiting from faster customs clearance and minimal handling risk. Logistics Groups provides airport-to-door service to guarantee your cargo reaches its destination efficiently and safely.
Door-to-door shipping delivers cargo directly from your supplier in China to any address in Bhutan. This service includes pickup, export customs clearance, transport by sea or air via India, import customs clearance, and final delivery. It is particularly convenient for businesses without local logistics partners and provides end-to-end tracking so you always know the status of your shipment. Logistics Groups ensures secure, timely, and hassle-free delivery.
Full Container Load (FCL) shipping is recommended for large-scale shipments such as machinery, electronics, textiles, pharmaceuticals, and commercial goods. Available container sizes include 20ft, 40ft, and 40ft HQ. FCL provides dedicated space for cargo, reducing risk of damage and accelerating handling. Containers typically arrive at Indian ports (Kolkata or Mumbai), followed by efficient overland transport into Thimphu, Paro, Punakha, and other major cities.
Less than Container Load (LCL) is ideal for small to medium shipments. Multiple shipments are consolidated into one container at Indian ports, offering flexibility and cost savings. Transit time is generally 28 to 38 days due to consolidation, port handling, and overland delivery.
