About Hong Kong
Hong Kong's container terminals at Kwai Tsing combine a deep-water port with an unusually efficient customs regime, which is why so much cargo for southern China still routes through it. Clearance is typically quick and onward connections into the Pearl River Delta by barge, road and air are well established. A large share of what lands here is not staying — agree at booking who handles the onward leg.
First Base Freight handles both import and export cargo through Hong Kong — inbound from any country and outbound to any country. Indicative sea transit on our the UK lane is 30–36 days; transit on any other routing is confirmed at quote stage. For rates, container options and the wider Hong Kong lane, including air freight and customs clearance, see the country page — or request a quote for this port.
