Shipping Consumer Electronics from Paranagua to Atlanta via Ocean Freight

When shipping a television, Use an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in non-abrasive padding, and brace all voids so the unit cannot move. Ship the TV standing upright, label the box with “This Side Up” and “Fragile – Electronics,” and prevent exposure to rain or damp areas since the internal circuitry are moisture sensitive.

Yes, home theater components Should use rigid cartons with dense foam or molded inserts that support the chassis, not the knobs or connectors. Pack each audio device individually, bundle accessories in separate bags, and add desiccant packs for moisture control. For multiple units, place on pallets with corner posts and stretch wrap to keep the load stable.

International shipments of electronic devices typically Require a commercial invoice, packing list, and relevant export declarations. Clearly state product descriptions, HS codes, serial numbers for high-value devices, and the true transaction value to avoid delays at customs. For certain home theater systems, confirm if additional certifications or licenses are needed in the destination country.

For moisture-sensitive gadgets, Use moisture-barrier bags or sealed poly bags around each unit, place desiccant sachets inside the inner packaging, and close cartons tightly. On pallets of televisions, use stretch film and, where possible, use pallet covers to shield against condensation or light rain during handling.

Because electronic devices like TVs are high value and fragile, obtaining cargo insurance that matches their replacement cost is strongly recommended. Verify your carrier’s standard liability limits, state accurate values and serial numbers, and retain packing photos and invoices so any claim for damaged AV equipment can be processed efficiently.

Consumer electronics are sensitive to temperature and humidity fluctuations, requiring careful packaging and climate-controlled containers during ocean freight. Additionally, they should be securely stowed to prevent movement and damage during transit.

Shipments of consumer electronics must comply with both Brazilian export regulations and U.S. import regulations, including obtaining necessary export permits, ensuring compliance with safety and environmental standards, and providing accurate documentation such as commercial invoices and packing lists for customs clearance.
