Air Freight Documents Checklist

To avoid delays, these documents usually required (depending on shipment type):

Packaging & Chargeable Weight (Very Important)

Airlines charge by chargeable weight, which is the higher of:

• Actual gross weight, or
• Volumetric weight (based on dimensions)

If cartons are oversized with light items, cost increases. Therefore, smart packing saves money.

Simple volumetric example

• Box size: 60 × 50 × 40 cm = 120,000 cm³
• Volumetric weight (common method): 120,000 ÷ 6,000 = 20 kg
  If actual weight is 12 kg, airline charges 20 kg.
