Furniture Shipping Cost from Ho Chi Minh City to Ulaanbaatar

International Shipping rates to Vietnam from the US F.A.Q. International shipping rates are typically more expensive than domestic shipping rates. This is because of several factors, such as import taxes, customs duties, logistics, and fuel costs involved in delivering shipments overseas.

Shipping from Vietnam varies greatly by method: Express/Air Freight is fastest (1-4 days for express, 3-8 days for standard air ), ideal for urgent/small items; Sea Freight (FCL/LCL) is cheaper for bulk but takes longer (25-40 days or more), depending on port congestion and destination coast. Factors like customs, carrier, and holidays affect timelines, so expect 3-7 days for air and over a month for sea.

Most freight forwarders will offer $11-12 per kg to the USA, depending on how quickly you need it. Insurance and customs / duty may cost more. Just label the stuff as personal belongings and you should be fine.
