When shipping a TV, choose an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in foam wrap, and Fill all voids so the unit cannot move. Keep the TV standing upright, clearly mark the box with “This Side Up” and “Fragile – Electronics,” and minimize exposure to rain or damp areas since the internal Electronics are moisture sensitive.
Yes, Audio equipment requires rigid cartons with dense foam or molded inserts that support the chassis, not the knobs or connectors. Pack each amplifier individually, Wrap cables separately, and Use desiccant packs for moisture control. For multiple units, ship on pallets with corner posts and stretch wrap to keep the load stable.
International shipments of Electronics typically need a commercial invoice, packing list, and all applicable export declarations. Include product descriptions, HS codes, serial numbers for high-value Gadgets, and the true transaction value to ensure smooth clearance. For certain audio equipment, Check if additional certifications or licenses are needed in the destination country.
For moisture-sensitive Electronics, select moisture-barrier bags or sealed poly bags around each unit, include desiccant sachets inside the inner packaging, and Seal cartons tightly. On pallets of TVs, wrap with stretch film and, where possible, install pallet covers to shield against condensation or light rain during handling.
Because Electronics like televisions are high value and fragile, adding cargo insurance that matches their replacement cost is strongly recommended. Confirm your carrier’s standard liability limits, Declare accurate values and serial numbers, and store packing photos and invoices so any claim for damaged home theater systems can be processed efficiently.
The required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary import permits for electronics as mandated by Brazilian customs.
