Transhipping is where individuals like yourself buy live creatures from a supplier who is in another country and import them through the licensed import agent (transhipper). Transhipping is not a way to obtain fish cheaper than you would from your local aquatic shops. Transhipping enables you to obtain fish that can not be found locally, such as rare species or specimen fish for show or breeding.<\/p>\n

There are costs involved in importing fish. Costs include Customs Clearance, transportation, and shipping to your physical location. Please bear in mind that the cost is an overview of the basic estimated cost, what\u2019s covered, and what to expect when paying for your shipment upon your fish\u2019s arrival at the destination country. The actual cost you pay might be a little higher or lower than what\u2019s mentioned here. Some transhippers may offer discounts of 5% to 55% for certain quantities.<\/p>\n

Please note that all the charges below are beyond our control. Customers will need to pay the Transhipper directly upon the fish\u2019s safe arrival in the destination country. Our presence is to make sure the fish we send are safe and sound.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
