Without the right logistics partner, businesses can face delays, customs issues, penalties, or even confiscation. This is why partnering with an experienced despachante de carga who understands the nuances of ‘sensitive goods’ is paramount to your success.
At Xinghang Freight Forwarding, we categorize e-cigarettes as ‘sensitive goods’ primarily due to two key components:
Table of Contents Lithium-Ion Batteries: Most e-cigarettes and vape devices are powered by lithium-ion batteries. These batteries are subject to strict regulations by international air and sea organizations (like IATA and IMO) due to their potential for thermal runaway if improperly handled, stored, or packed.E-Liquids: While not inherently hazardous in small quantities, e-liquids are considered liquids and often contain nicotine, which is regulated. Spillage, improper labeling, or packaging can cause issues.These factors mean that e-cigarettes cannot be shipped under standard ‘general cargo’ rules. They require specific documentation, compliant packaging, and carriers equipped to handle such items, often incurring slightly different rates due to the additional safety protocols involved. We at Xinghang are fully equipped to manage these intricacies, ensuring your cargo is always compliant and secure.
