AIR CARGO GATEWAY

PVG Air Cargo Gateway in Shanghai

UDB Shanghai coordinates commercial air cargo movements through Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG), including route and carrier review, booking and AWB information, document readiness, airport handover, and agreed milestones for departure, arrival, cargo availability or release, and onward transport. Each shipment is assessed against the actual cargo, route, carrier or operator, ground handler, airport, customs and onward-service requirements. This page is limited to PVG-specific coordination. UDB Shanghai is not the airport, carrier, terminal operator or customs authority, and capacity, acceptance, cut-off times and timing are valid only after written confirmation by the relevant responsible parties.
