Appliances Shipping Cost from Accra to Hanoi

Shipping a 40ft container to Ghana typically costs between $2,500 and $6,000 for ocean freight, but prices fluctuate widely based on origin (US, China, Dubai), fuel costs, port fees, and carrier, with potential extra charges for customs, VAT (15%), and local delivery in Ghana. For instance, from the US, it might average around $5,900, while from China, you might see rates from $2,800-$3,500, and from Dubai, closer to $2,800-$4,500.

The best international shipping companies often include DHL, FedEx, and UPS for fast, reliable express deliveries globally, while USPS offers affordable options for lighter packages, and specialized players like Aramex (cost-effective, slower) or freight forwarders like DB Schenker (large volumes) cater to specific needs, with the best choice depending on speed, cost, package size, and destination.

The average transit time to ship a container to Ghana from the United States (USA) is from 4 weeks to 6 weeks.
