Importing from Kazakhstan

Air cargo imports from Kazakhstan are relatively limited and mainly concern high-quality industrial components, mining samples, pharmaceutical raw materials, and certain specialty foods like caviar.

Air Cargo vs. Sea/Rail

Kazakhstan is landlocked — sea freight is not an option. Rail transport via the Trans-Asian route takes 18–25 days to Rotterdam, while air freight via Schiphol is customs-ready within 1–3 working days. For urgent shipments or high-value goods, air freight is the logical choice.

Customs on Imports from Kazakhstan

EU import duties apply depending on the HS code. Reduced rates may apply under the GSP scheme for certain goods. Aircargo.nl manages customs clearance at Schiphol and provides fiscal representation where necessary.
