When shipping from Kaohsiung, Taiwan to Nhava Sheva, India, anticipate significant delays due to the Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November) and the Southwest Monsoon (June-September). Build in additional buffer days to your schedules and secure flexible berthing options to mitigate port congestion and weather-related disruptions. During the Diwali export peak (late September–mid November), ensure vessel space well in advance to avoid tight capacity. Additionally, track customs and documentation processing closely during the Eid al Fitr (March-June) and Eid al Adha (May-July) holiday periods to prevent delays.

Shipping very heavy Industrial machinery Requires professional rigging. Use Steel‑reinforced skids with clear lifting points, work with experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers rated for the full load. Block and brace the machine to prevent any movement, and record its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive HVAC equipment Should be protected from rain and condensation. Use Shrink wrap with humidity absorbers inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose Enclosed trailers whenever possible. For ocean freight, ask about VCI packaging for long voyages.
Exporting Construction machinery typically Requires a detailed invoice, packing list, Bill of lading, and any regulatory approvals applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for Generators. For some destinations, you should check if you need certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for HVAC equipment.
High‑value Generators Should be protected by a dedicated policy, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for Full value, confirm that water damage are covered, and Keep inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built Industrial machinery where lead times and replacement costs are high.
Crated Construction machines Can sometimes be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is properly sealed and placed on Elevated dunnage, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like industrial fans and Generators Are better kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, verify wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and plan for timely installation to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
Due to the weight and size of industrial machinery and construction equipment, specialized handling equipment is required at both ports. Additionally, securing the cargo properly during transit is essential to prevent damage from ocean conditions.
Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any specific export permits from Taiwan. Import permits and customs declarations are also necessary for Indian customs, along with compliance with regulatory requirements for industrial machinery and construction equipment.
