In accordance to the Rules of International Air Transport, the freight fee for all cargo transported by air is calculated based on the physical weight and dimensions: ⠀
1) physical weight (kg); ⠀
2) volume weight (Vkg). ⠀
⠀
When the overall dimensions of the packages are large (because they take up more space on the plane), both (physical/volume) weights are calculated first, and then the weight with the higher index is selected as the carrying weight. ⠀
⠀
According to the established international rules, the volume weight is calculated as follows: ⠀
Width (cm) x Length (cm) x Height (cm) / 6000 = Volume weight (Vkg) ⠀
⠀
To calculate the transportation fee, the volume-weight indicator is multiplied by the tariff for 1 kg in that country. ⠀
⠀
Under what conditions is the CAMEX shipping fee calculated by weight? ⠀
⠀
USA: ⠀
When either side of the package is more than 1 m (100 cm); ⠀
UK and Germany: ⠀
If the volume weight is more than 15 kg of physical weight; ⠀
China: ⠀
If the volume weight exceeds the physical weight; ⠀
Turkey: ⠀
Calculated only by physical weight (excluding bulky products: furniture, large bedding textile sets, etc.); ⠀
UAE: ⠀
Calculated by physical weight only. ⠀
