Shipping Food from Jakarta to Hong Kong via Ocean Freight

Moisture-sensitive Dry food Requires waterproof protection such as laminated liners inside sturdy outer cartons. Most shippers recommend adding drying agents and using moisture-warning labels on all ambient food shipments, especially when moving through humid or coastal routes.

You Can ship Snacks and beverages together if every unit is securely packed and beverages are placed at the bottom of the carton. Most carriers recommend using cell partitions for beverages so that any leak does not contaminate surrounding dry food.

Most international shipments of Ambient food Require itemized invoices listing full product descriptions, HS codes, and values. Depending on the destination and type of beverages, you could be asked for free-sale certificates and certificates of origin, especially for beverages.

For Packaged food with medium fragility and mixed Snacks and beverages, most shippers choose all-risks freight insurance that includes damage from moisture and breakage. Be sure to list realistic replacement values of your snacks and note your packing methods, as insurers may evaluate packaging quality when processing claims.

Most Ambient food and standard Bottled drinks are shipped in standard dry vans as long as you keep them within labeled storage temperatures. Most carriers recommend checking manufacturer guidelines on temperature limits, especially for oil-based dry food, and scheduling moves to minimize exposure to very hot or very cold environments.

Packaged food must be stored in a temperature-controlled environment during ocean freight to maintain its quality and safety. It is important to ensure that the containers are sealed properly to prevent contamination and spoilage. Additionally, proper labeling and segregation of different food types may be necessary to comply with health regulations.

Required documentation typically includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and health certificates to ensure compliance with Hong Kong's food safety regulations.
