CROSS BORDER SHIPPING

Cross-border shipping refers to the process of transporting goods across international boundaries from the origin country to the destination country. This type of shipping often involves multiple modes of transportation, customs clearance processes, and adherence to international trade regulations. As e-commerce has grown, the demand for cross-border shipping services has also increased, especially for businesses looking to reach a global customer base.
