19 days from Japan, Korea and China to Europe

Shipping to Korea or Japan means that first leg of the shipment should be done by sea leg anyway. In case if you use TSLB, there's only one THC in VVO port from the vessel to the railcar and the train is dispatched to the border with Europe.

If you use TMR or TMGR, you need to make THC in ports of China and another one THC at the border between China and Russia/Mongolia, where the capacity of station is very limited, which can cause congestions.

Other multimodal services have 2 sea legs. After the second one St. Petersburg – European Port you still need to use railway connection from POD to the destination within Europe. So an additional leg is still needed.

Such rail connection is needed only for single container shipments. It's done at the station of Moscow area –Bekasovo station or Vekovka station. For both options (single container or block-train) customs transit for CIS part is done only once – in Vladivostok.

There's no need to make additional customs transit in Moscow. The documents are issued in Vladivostok for transit VVO – Brest exp. Station, in EU we issue T1 transit document.

Provide a full set of necessary documents before container arrival to Vladivostok.

Arrange telex release of container before container arrival to POD.

Organize correct container's sealing (in accordance with FESCO recommendation).
