China as a Crosstrade Destination

In crosstrades, Schiphol acts as a European hub for goods not shipped from the Netherlands itself. China is a highly sought-after link in crosstrade routes both as a country of origin and destination, for example for goods routed via AMS from the US, UK, or Middle East to China.

Aircargo.nl has direct relationships with Chinese cargo agents in Shanghai, Beijing, and Shenzhen and can coordinate the complete documentation flow — including Chinese customs formalities — from Aalsmeer.

The route from China to United States is a regular airfreight connection that Aircargo.nl coordinates as an international shipment from the Netherlands.

Although the goods go directly from China to United States, our team in Aalsmeer handles the complete logistics: booking, documentation, customs in both countries, and monitoring from start to finish.
