Mumbai (Nhava Sheva) to Felixstowe: approximately 23–28 days port-to-port plus 2–3 days UK clearance. Door-to-door Leicester delivery adds 1–2 working days. Air freight runs 4–7 days standard, 24–48 h express.

Yes — CETA entered into force on 1 July 2026. Taurex Freight is already routing, classifying and pre-clearing under the CETA HS-code mapping so your shipments benefit from the reduced tariffs immediately.

Yes — we set up duty deferment accounts and Postponed VAT Accounting so VAT and duty go on a monthly statement instead of paying per shipment. We also offer product sourcing on customer demand: tell us what you need and we identify factories, vet suppliers, run QC, and book the freight in one workflow.

Letters of Credit (LC), TT, and bank transfer. UK importers can apply for 30/60/90-day net terms on freight invoices. All quotes itemise freight, duty, and clearance separately — no surprises.

Sea: 23 days port-to-port + 2-day clearance. Air: 4–7 days standard, 24–48 h express. Rail (China origin): 18–22 days. Last-mile UK: same- or next-day from our Leicester hub.
