Brazil is becoming an increasingly promising market with a GDP of US$1.92 trillion (2022). Brazil's economy is of great importance in the Latin market and globally. The country is a leader in many areas and air transport plays a key role in the import of goods from both Europe and other South American regions. The volume of imports to Brazil from the European Union in 2022 was USD 44.3 trillion. The largest city in Brazil is Sao Paulo with a population of 12.33 million. 

How long does it take to fly from Poland to Brazil ?

The time it takes to transport airfreight from Poland to Brazil depends mainly on the air service you choose. Air freight from Poland to Brazil takes on average 2 to 7 days. 

Costs and fees associated with air transport/export to Brazil 

The prices for air transport to Brazil are very dependent on the service we choose, the weight of the cargo, the destination and the time we want to send the cargo. For this reason, the current cost of transport should be checked on a regular basis.

Air transport rates are calculated per kilogram of cargo. However, there are occasions when cargo weighs very little and takes up a lot of space by volume. For this reason, airlines have adopted the principle of calculating payable weight and actual weight. If the weight of the cargo on 1 CBM exceeds 167 kg, the actual weight, i.e. how much the cargo actually weighs, is used. However, if, for example, the cargo weighs 100 kg and occupies 1 CBM, the weight will not be calculated from the actual weight, but from the payable weight, i.e. we will pay for 167 kg.  

In air transport, the larger the cargo we send, the better the rates we can count on. The rate per kilo of cargo when shipping 1,000 kg will be much lower than when shipping 100 kg.

Insurance in air transport to Brazil

If you are sending goods by air to Brazil, it is worth taking out Cargo insurance, which will protect you against any risks associated with cargo damage. The cost of such insurance is, depending on the value of the goods, from a dozen to even several hundred USD if the value of the cargo is very high.

In the event of unforeseen events and damage, cargo insurance will save us a lot of stress and nerves.
