When shipping from Nagoya to Taipei, expect significant delays during the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October) and Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November). Build in extra buffer days for port operations and secure flexible routing options to mitigate disruptions. Avoid tight schedules during Japan's Golden Week (April 20-May 10) and the Lunar New Year (late January to mid-February) to prevent rollovers. Track weather conditions closely and revise cut-off times accordingly, especially during peak periods (July-October) to ensure timely deliveries.

For moisture-sensitive car parts, select inner Moisture-barrier bags around each component, then place them in Sturdy cartons with sufficient cushioning. Seal all seams with strong packing tape and clearly mark cartons “Dry Storage Only”. For export or long-duration transit, assess adding moisture absorbers inside master cartons and, if needed, inside the shipping container.
You are allowed to ship vehicle tires with boxed Auto parts, but They should be physically separated and properly secured. Logistics providers commonly recommend palletizing boxed car parts and then stacking or racking vehicle tires so they do not press against or rub cartons. Avoid placing heavy loose vehicle tires on top of fragile or moisture-sensitive Automotive parts, as this can cause crushing or punctures during transit.
Fluid-filled vehicle parts such as fuel system components, shock absorbers, or oil coolers often require Hazardous materials declarations, depending on the type and quantity of fluid. You should verify whether the product is classified as dangerous goods under relevant transport regulations and prepare the appropriate safety data sheets (SDS), UN numbers, and packing group information if applicable. Even when not regulated as hazardous, clearly note “Contains Fluids – Keep Upright” on packaging and shipping documents to guide carriers.
High-value vehicle components such as engines, transmissions, ECUs, and safety modules should be shipped with Full-value cargo insurance. Carrier default liability Is often limited and may not cover the full replacement cost of specialized vehicle parts. Freight experts recommend insuring based on replacement value, documenting serial numbers and condition at pickup, and retaining invoices and packing lists so any claim for loss, impact damage, or moisture-related failure will be processed efficiently.
To reduce damage in mixed vehicle components pallet loads, position the heaviest metal components at the bottom, with lighter boxes and Tires above. Use Corner boards, shrink wrap and bands to stabilize the load and prevent shifting. Keep moisture-sensitive vehicle parts toward the center of the pallet, away from potential leaks or condensation on trailer walls, and visibly tag any fragile or orientation-sensitive cartons so handlers can respect correct handling procedures.
Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary certificates of origin. Additionally, specific import permits may be needed for certain automotive parts, depending on Taiwanese regulations.
