Freight Forwarder in Ahmedabad for Exports to the USA
Airlift's Ahmedabad office, in Prahlad Nagar, is one of Airlift's 14 group branches in India (its own offices, not agents) and a Gujarat origin for the India to USA and India to Canada lanes. It books FCL and LCL through Mundra (INMUN), Pipavav (INPAV), Hazira (INHZA) or Kandla (INIXY), with customs clearance inland at ICD Khodiyar, and air freight from Ahmedabad airport (AMD), and handles factory pickup and Indian export clearance. Mundra to New York is listed at 30–39 days port to port, and Pipavav to Newark at 31–35 days; air is 3–5 days airport to airport. In the USA, Airlift USA (in business since 1999; FMC-licensed NVOCC, FMC No. 016162) files the ISF, has the entry filed by licensed customs brokers and arranges delivery through its New Jersey and Los Angeles offices.

Exporting from Ahmedabad through the Gujarat ports
Gujarat has several container gateways, and all of them are within reach of Ahmedabad: Mundra and Deendayal Port at Kandla on the Gulf of Kutch, Pipavav on the Saurashtra coast, and Hazira near Surat. Closer to home, CONCOR's ICD Khodiyar, which CONCOR describes as Gujarat's largest inland container depot, lets containers be customs-cleared near the city and railed to Mundra and the other ports. Air freight flies from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport (AMD).
The Ahmedabad region exports chemicals and dyes, pharmaceuticals, cotton textiles and garments, engineering goods and plastics, most of it in full containers.
Our Ahmedabad office, in Prahlad Nagar, books FCL, LCL and air shipments to the United States from these gateways, and our US offices handle the Importer Security Filing and the customs entry through licensed customs brokers on arrival. The India to USA lane guide publishes transit times from Mundra, Pipavav and Hazira, and the port-pair pages below give the range for each route.
Importer Security Filing (ISF): filed by Airlift USA as the NVOCC at least 24 hours before the container loads in India.
US customs clearance on arrival: the entry is filed through Airlift USA's licensed customs-broker network, under a power of attorney from the importer of record.
