Sea freight to and from Europe
As a professional managing shipments to or from Europe, you need sea freight solutions that protect margins, respect transit commitments, and adapt to port congestion, customs controls, and carrier capacity fluctuations. In practice, rates, routing options, and documentation standards vary widely between Northern and Southern Europe, and a minor planning gap can impact lead times or storage costs. To keep control, you need clear cost structures, reliable schedules, and proactive coordination across ports and inland connections.
That is where DocShipper acts as your maritime freight forwarder in Europe, structuring your international maritime transport, securing capacity for container transport, and aligning every shipment by sea with your operational priorities. You gain predictability, performance, and a partner focused on long term logistics continuity.
Maritime containerization
Whether you require FCL, LCL, or RoRo, we match each containerization method to your volumes, cargo type, and deadlines, so your goods move across Europe with optimal cost and space efficiency.
Logistics coordination
You benefit from complete logistics coordination and real-time maritime shipment tracking for every international transport flow to and from Europe, with one dedicated maritime freight forwarder ensuring visibility, quick decisions, and reduced operational friction.
Transport documentation
For shipments across European ports, we prepare all transport documentation and customs files in full compliance with EU regulations, and you receive a detailed quotation within 24 hours to secure planning and budgeting.
Tailor-made solutions
Your sector, volumes, and delivery constraints shape our tailor-made maritime transport plans, combining professional sea freight expertise and international logistics coordination to build flexible solutions aligned with your European supply chain.
Air freight to and from Europe
As an experienced air forwarder in Europe, we organize reliable air freight solutions to and from major European hubs such as Frankfurt, Paris, Amsterdam, and Madrid. Transport of goods by air is ideal for urgent products, high-value cargo, sensitive components, and time-critical industrial supplies. Whether you require standard air freight, express shipment by plane, or oversized parcel transport, our air logistics experts coordinate every step to meet European aviation and customs standards.
While air freight offers unmatched speed across Europe and worldwide, it involves higher costs, size and weight limits, and specific security procedures. We handle shipments starting from 100 kg or 0.5 m³, ensuring compliant and efficient execution.
Express freight
When deadlines are tight, you can rely on our urgent air freight solutions to and from Europe. We reduce transit times through priority bookings and optimized flight connections, keeping your critical shipments on schedule.
Special parcels
You benefit from expert handling of oversized and heavy air parcels to and from Europe, with full control of dimensions, weight limits, and airline compliance requirements.
Protecting your goods
For sensitive shipments across Europe’s major airports, we provide secure handling for fragile and valuable goods, using adapted packaging, reinforced loading procedures, and strict monitoring so your cargo arrives in perfect condition.
Peace of mind
Through our extensive European and global partner network, you enjoy seamless international air logistics. We manage documentation, coordination, and customs, connecting you to worldwide markets from and to Europe with complete confidence.
Import and export customs clearance in Europe
Importing and exporting goods across Europe means dealing with diverse national regulations, evolving EU directives, VAT regimes, and product-specific controls. Despite the harmonised Union Customs Code, businesses still face differing documentation practices, port procedures, and strict customs compliance, customs declarations, and customs duties requirements in each member state. Delays often arise from incorrect tariff classification, missing certificates of origin, or unexpected customs inspections at major hubs such as Rotterdam, Antwerp, or Hamburg.
As an experienced licensed customs broker and customs representative, we coordinate all customs clearance procedures and customs formalities across Europe. Our team manages tariff classification, origin determination, and communication with local authorities to ensure accurate filings and reduced risk of penalties. Through proactive customs management and tailored customs clearance services, we help secure smooth transit throughout the European market.

I contacted DocShipper to organize the import of board games from Asia to Switzerland. Despite my lack of experience in the field and the modest size of my request, my dealings with the staff were always professional and efficient. I received sound advice and the staff always took the time to answer my questions. I look forward to working with DocShipper for the import of my goods and highly recommend their services.

My name is Ad Van Den Bosh. I am a Dutch business man cross-trading in the Far East. I reached Robert Houwayek (DocShipper's representative) to clear a 40HC of greenhouse equipment from Qingdao, and deliver it to Lan Krabue in no time. He suggested that I request a Form E, which I did from the supplier, and was able to enjoy a preferential tariff treatment. DocShipper, a way to help you save both time and money!!

I recently used Docshipper to ship my appliances from Germany to Thailand, and I'm thrilled with the service I received! [...]The team was professional, responsive, and kept me informed every step of the way. The packaging and handling of my appliances were top-notch, and they arrived in perfect condition. I was impressed with the attention to detail and care taken to ensure a safe and successful transport. I really recommend Docshipper for it.

In the event of goods being stuck at customs, Robert [...] is a customs broker you should arguably consider to release your cargo. Once I knew that my scale modeling tools coming from Spain are being withheld at Suvarnabhumi Airport, I resorted to him to release it and handle the last mile delivery. All what he asked me is to send 2 emails to be able to do it! [...] Well guess what, within 48 hours, it was done! I got my parcel at my place in Phuket.

A vice president caught up in the thick of thin things, an EXW shipment of plumbing supplies for irrigation from Eureka California to Costa Rica is definitely not what I’d like to have on my agenda. Robert’s hang-in-there posture toward any arising challenges in shipping. [...] skillfully handled all US export formalities incl. SED/AES filing, not to mention the sea freight from Oakland POL. Everything ended up working out like a charm!

I feel they covered everything. DocShipper shipped a 20- ft Milvan overseas to Laem Chabang for a customer. The team was responsible for shipping the shipping to another country. Having very little knowledge in this area, I didn't know how to organise myself . One week after my arrival on the Asian continent. Marc O. Was available at all times and nearly instant feedback. Made a stressful event much easier and he definitely knows his job.
