Kazakhstan Sea Port

Aktau Port

• General Overview: Located on the east coast of the Caspian Sea in western Kazakhstan, Aktau Port is the only international seaport in Kazakhstan. The port covers an area of 81.7 hectares and is equipped with 4 dry cargo terminals, 4 oil loading terminals, and supporting ferry facilities. These can operate simultaneously, handling international transportation of various dry goods and oil.

• WanHao Freight: WanHao Freight can provide a series of services at this port, including cargo solicitation, booking, transshipment, warehousing, container LCL (less - than - container - load) consolidation and de - consolidation, freight settlement, customs declaration, inspection declaration, and transportation consultation. This helps shippers better arrange their cargo transportation. With its professional logistics team and rich experience, it can formulate personalized transportation plans according to customer needs, select appropriate transportation methods, and arrange cargo loading, unloading, and warehousing.

• Ocean FCL: Full - Container - Load (FCL) shipping from Aktau Port can connect to ports in some countries in the Caspian Sea, Black Sea, and Mediterranean Sea regions. For shippers with a large volume of goods and high requirements for transportation time, FCL shipping is more suitable. It has advantages such as high transportation efficiency and strong cargo safety. For example, when shipping to Europe, goods can be transshipped to various parts of Europe via Baku in Azerbaijan; when shipping to the Middle East, goods can be directly transshipped through ports in Iran in the Caspian Sea.

• Ocean LCL: WanHao Freight will consolidate the goods of multiple shippers that are less than a full container into one container for transportation, and then de - consolidate and distribute them after arriving at the destination port. This method is suitable for customers with a small volume of goods and a sensitivity to transportation costs. It can reduce transportation costs and improve transportation efficiency, enabling small and medium - sized shippers to also transport goods by sea.

• Ocean Freight: Ocean freight is affected by various factors such as the type of goods, weight, volume, transportation distance, destination port, and market supply and demand. Generally, the ocean freight for bulk goods such as oil is relatively low, while that for high - value and small - batch goods is relatively high, but the proportion in the total cost is relatively small.

• Airfreight: Goods can be transported by air through Aktau International Airport nearby. This is suitable for transporting high - value goods with high - time - sensitivity requirements, such as electronic products, precision instruments, and medical equipment. Usually, they need to stop at major aviation hubs before being transshipped to destinations around the world.

• International Express: International express services such as DHL, FedEx, UPS, TNT, and EMS can reach the area where Aktau Port is located. They provide door - to - door services, which are convenient for the transportation of small - sized and urgent goods.
