When drawing up a contract for air freight, we specify what services are included in its cost, and what you need to pay separately
Preparation of documents
International air travel requires careful preparation. You need to make sure you have the following documents:
- citizen's passport;
- international passport;
- documents confirming ownership;
- visa with a validity period of at least 3 months from the date of registration of the cargo.
In order for ELP CARGO to be able to send personal belongings by air, they also need to be properly registered. To do this, prepare:
- a complete list of things with an indication of their exact quantity;
- photos before and after packing.
All boxes must be labeled according to the packing list numbering.
Goods prohibited for transportation
The rules of international air transportation prohibit transporting certain categories of goods. In the case of home and office moves, too, not everything can be transported, for example:
- alcohol, tobacco products, drugs, cosmetics;
- food, medicines;
- various equipment;
- unregistered valuables and a number of other items.
One of the important conditions for safe air transportation is the quality of packaging. If it does not meet the requirements, the company will not take responsibility for the safety of the cargo.

Can you arrange customs clearance documents?
Yes, we offer customs clearance services for the goods we transport.
I want to send cargo without documents
Just as it is impossible to fly on an airplane without presenting a passport / visa, it is impossible to ship the cargo without documents. In the international transportation of any cargo, personal belongings or commercial cargo, its movement falls under the customs control of the countries of the sender and recipient.
Is it possible to send personal items abroad without a detailed list?
Unfortunately, it is impossible - personal belongings, like any goods transported across state borders, fall under customs control, and therefore a complete list of the transported goods must be drawn up for its submission to the customs authorities and for the correct execution of customs procedures.
How to mark the cargo?
The main inscriptions on the packages must contain:
Full or abbreviated name of the consignee and consignor;
Sender and recipient address;
The number of packages in the shipment and the serial number of the package within the shipment;
Manipulative signs are also indicated, for example: Fragile, Up, etc.

How to pack the goods correctly?
Proper packaging protects the contents of the shipment from everyday hazards and ensures that the goods being transported do not damage other goods during transit.
Packaging must be sufficient to protect your item during transit.
Using the most common measures, you can avoid time and labor costs, as well as financial losses.
Use shock-resistant materials that will not allow the load to move freely during transportation.
Each fragile or vulnerable item must be wrapped separately.
Packages must be securely sealed with adhesive tape intended for gluing transported goods.
Boxes must be on the pad and secured.
Cabinet furniture (chest of drawers, wardrobes, beds) must be disassembled in detail and properly packed in a separate package filled with packaging material.
Larger shipments (equipment, etc.) must be secured with a supporting frame structure, which must be filled with protective packaging material (styrofoam, etc.).
