Shipping Gadgets from San Juan to Santos via Ocean Freight

When shipping a TV, Use an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in foam wrap, and block all voids so the unit cannot move. Keep the TV standing upright, label the box with “This Side Up” and “Fragile – Electronics,” and minimize exposure to rain or damp areas since the internal components are moisture sensitive.

Yes, Audio equipment Should use rigid cartons with dense foam or molded inserts that support the chassis, not the knobs or connectors. Pack each amplifier individually, bag all cables, and Use 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 Electronics typically Require a commercial invoice, packing list, and all applicable export declarations. List product descriptions, HS codes, serial numbers for high-value Gadgets, and the true transaction value to avoid delays at customs. For certain audio equipment, verify if additional certifications or licenses are needed in the destination country.

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

Because Electronics like TVs are high value and fragile, adding cargo insurance that matches their replacement cost is strongly recommended. Check your carrier’s standard liability limits, Declare accurate values and serial numbers, and retain packing photos and invoices so any claim for damaged home theater systems can be processed efficiently.

Consumer electronics are sensitive to temperature and humidity fluctuations, so it is essential to use climate-controlled containers during ocean freight to mitigate damage. Additionally, proper packing materials should be used to protect fragile items from shocks and vibrations during transit.

Regulatory requirements include compliance with Brazil's Import Tax and the need for an import license for electronics. Proper documentation, such as invoices, packing lists, and certificates of conformity, must also be prepared to meet Brazilian customs regulations.
