With over 25 years of operational authority in international freight forwarding, custom clearance, and specialized logistics, we provide Swiss enterprises with unprecedented security, velocity, and regulatory precision.
We maintain dedicated block-space agreements (BSAs) and priority charter access with major global carriers routing directly into Zurich Airport (ZRH), EuroAirport Basel-Mulhouse (BSL), and Geneva Airport (GVA). Our 24/7 Desk guarantees dispatch setup within 30 minutes of booking confirmation.
Navigating non-EU Swiss trade policies requires strict technical compliance. Our fully licensed customs team leverages the new Passar digital clearance system and Tares tariff cataloging to eliminate customs holds, manage MWST (Swiss VAT), and handle ATA Carnets seamlessly.
Every time-critical OEM shipment is fitted with smart telemetry sensors delivering real-time GPS coordinates, ambient temperature logs, shock/vibration alerts, and light-exposure monitoring. Critical data is transmitted continuously to your logistics dashboard.
Switzerland's export-driven economy relies on zero-defect precision, high compliance, and strict timing. Here is how our OEM/ODM time-critical logistics supports key Swiss industrial sectors:
Exporting active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and clinical trial samples from the Basel region requires strict Good Distribution Practice (GDP) standards. We provide active thermal packaging (+2°C to +8°C, -20°C dry ice) with direct tarmac transfers to prevent temperature excursions.
High-value horological components and OEM micro-engineering sub-assemblies demand absolute security and rapid transit. Utilizing our On-Board Courier (OBC) Hand Carry services, custom parts are escorted directly from Asian manufacturers into Swiss cleanrooms within 24 hours.
Unexpected factory downtime (AOG/Unscheduled Outage) in Swiss machinery assembly lines costs thousands per hour. Our time-critical NFO charters supply emergency replacement tooling, hydraulic valves, and CNC control modules with guaranteed SLA delivery windows.
OEM surgical robotics, implants, and diagnostic systems require seamless white-glove delivery to Swiss hospitals and distribution hubs. We handle pre-clearance documentation and temperature-controlled final-mile delivery across all cantons.

The Swiss Federal Office for Customs and Border Security (BAZG) is modernizing import/export declarations through the Passar transformation project. Replacing e-dec and NCTS, Passar simplifies digitized transit processing across Swiss borders. Our logistics platform is 100% API-integrated with Passar, ensuring zero customs delay for time-critical express freight.
Swiss enterprises are bound by strict corporate sustainability mandates. We assist OEM/ODM exporters by offering Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) options for air charters and deploying electric last-mile delivery fleets for urban distribution in Zurich, Geneva, and Basel, drastically reducing scope 3 carbon emissions.
To guard against global maritime bottlenecks, Swiss procurement directors are adopting hybrid supply chain strategies. By combining economical ocean freight for base stock with emergency air charters for surge demand, we empower Swiss manufacturers to maintain zero-inventory-waste while securing 100% production uptime.

Our 24/7 Critical Desk issues confirmed quotes and flight routings within 15 to 30 minutes of inquiry. For OBC shipments, an onboard courier is dispatched to the pick-up location within 2 hours globally. For NFO air charters landing at Zurich (ZRH) or Basel (BSL), tarmac handling and express customs release are pre-arranged prior to aircraft arrival.
We utilize GDP-compliant, validated passive temperature control boxes (VIP/PCM insulation) or active powered refrigerated containers (Envirotainer/CSafe). Continuous real-time IoT temperature data loggers accompany the cargo, feeding live telemetry to our monitoring team to prevent any thermal deviation throughout transit.
Yes. Our logistics teams are fully certified under IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) and ADR road transit rules. We manage UN-certified packaging, Dangerous Goods Declarations (DGD), and compliance labeling for lithium-ion batteries (Section I/II), electronics, and specialized industrial chemicals.
To clear customs seamlessly, we require a detailed Commercial Invoice (with exact Swiss Tares tariff headings if available), Packing List, Certificate of Origin, and authorized EORI/UID numbers. Our automated digital customs interface pre-files these documents to guarantee instant green-light clearance upon arrival.
