FCEL Charges
- Actual weight
- Chargeable weight
- Package dimensions
- Number of packages
- Cargo type
- Packaging requirements
- Special handling
- Documentation (e.g., Vito Sanitary / Quarantine)
- Destination
- Shipment-specific requirements
Government / Customs Charges

Government duties, taxes, or customs charges, where applicable, are determined by the relevant authorities and depend on the shipment.
What Is Chargeable Weight?
International freight pricing can sometimes depend on the weight used by the carrier or logistics provider for billing purposes. This is known as chargeable weight.
Three terms are useful to understand:
- Actual weight: The weight of the shipment as measured on a scale.
- Dimensional / volumetric weight: A calculated weight based on the package dimensions. Some carriers use this when a package is large but light.
- Chargeable weight: The weight that the carrier or logistics provider uses to calculate the freight cost. It may be the actual weight, the dimensional weight, or the higher of the two.
Where applicable, FCEL will confirm the chargeable weight used for your shipment.

If you are considering sea freight, contact FCEL for the current applicable service and price for your cargo. Sea freight pricing depends on volume, container type, cargo type, and route.

Not necessarily. Customs duties, taxes, import charges, or other government-assessed amounts can depend on the goods, declared value, classification, origin, destination, and applicable regulations.
FCEL pricing and government charges are separate. FCEL does not determine or collect Canadian customs duties or Nigerian export duties. For current rules, consult the Canada Border Services Agency and the Nigeria Customs Service.
