Manufacturers who wish to export their products are required to use the services of international freight forwarders to transfer goods to the destination country or countries. Transit services provided by international transport companies vary depending on the type of goods, weight, and volume. These services must comply with customs clearance regulations, determining the method of transportation used for the cargo.
