How cargo is delivered from St. Petersburg to Minsk

Goods are delivered by sea transport in containers. After arrival at the port of destination, the container is cleared, customs documentation is prepared, and the cargo is delivered to the BCP in Belarus.

Preparation of the container for clearance begins before its arrival at the BCP. The agent prepares documents for customs transit, coordinates and prepares supporting documentation.

It should be remembered that an error in the documents may result in a delay of the goods in the port and, accordingly, an increase in the cost of delivery.

When the containers have arrived at the port, the customs carrier organizes further actions for the passage of the cargo. The freight forwarding company acts on behalf of the customer.

The freight forwarder must obtain authorization to remove the cargo from the terminal. Only then is the delivery of road transportation carried out. In addition, SCT works only with organizations that have concluded an agreement with the port for these actions and have also obtained permission for the entry of vehicles.
