When shipping from Manila to Taipei, consider the Southeast Asia Monsoon Season (May-September) and Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November). Build in buffer days to schedules due to heavy rainfall and potential port congestion. Secure vessel space and trucking capacity well in advance during peak periods (July-October) to avoid rollovers. Work closely with carriers for real-time updates, especially during the Lunar New Year (late-January to mid-February) and Christmas retail peak (October-December), as these times often see increased congestion and delays.

For humidity-sensitive Toys, choose a two-stage approach: inner poly sleeve around the product or retail box, then a reinforced shipping box with Void fill. Place Desiccant packs for long-distance or ocean shipments of toys and games.
For most sports equipment and leisure products, a Standard dry container is usually adequate, but exporters should confirm door seals and install Container desiccants. For collector leisure products with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, Consider additional interior lining on routes with tropical climates.
To reduce stacking damage for moderately heavy Toys and games, choose higher burst-strength cartons, manage pallet height, and add Corner posts. Prominently label pallets of Toys with “No Top Load” where appropriate, and make sure heavier Sporting goods are not loaded on top of lighter Toys and games.
Yes, many countries have Safety and labeling rules for children’s toys. Exporters should confirm that all games meet destination standards (such as CE marking) and that test reports is available if customs requests it. Some Sporting goods, such as items with aerosols, may also fall under hazardous materials rules and require Special packing.
Because toys and leisure products often have High retail value and are vulnerable to water exposure, arranging shipment insurance makes sense. Protect your Toys at commercial invoice value and Confirm that the policy includes water damage, especially for ocean or long-term storage moves.
