Shipping Agent Service, On Time Every Time.
One shipping agent handling carrier booking, factory-side coordination in China and Indian customs clearance — instead of juggling separate vendors on each side.
Why Apextar
Built to Replace Five Vendors With One
One Contract, Both Sides
A single shipping agent agreement covers origin coordination in China and destination handling in India.
Factory-Side Coordination
We liaise directly with your supplier or factory on pickup timing, packing and documentation before the container ever leaves China.
Comprehensive Customs Handling
In-house Indian customs brokerage means clearance isn't handed off to a third party.
End-to-End Visibility
One point of contact for status updates, from factory collection through to delivery.
Accountability End to End
When one agent owns the whole shipment, there's no vendor-to-vendor finger-pointing when something needs attention.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does a shipping agent actually do?
A shipping agent represents you on the ground at origin and destination — booking space, coordinating with your factory or supplier, handling documentation and managing customs — so you deal with one accountable party instead of separate freight, customs and trucking vendors.
Do you coordinate directly with my Chinese supplier?
Yes — for factory-direct shipments we liaise with your supplier on pickup timing, packing requirements and export paperwork before the container leaves China.
Is this different from a freight forwarder?
Shipping agent and freight forwarder overlap heavily in practice — our shipping agent service adds the supplier-side coordination on top of standard forwarding, so it suits importers who want less hands-on involvement at origin.
Which countries do you provide agent services for?
China is our most-requested lane, but we act as shipping agent for shipments from anywhere in our network — see our trade lane pages for specific countries and routes.
Who handles customs clearance in India?
Our in-house brokerage team, as part of the same agent relationship — not outsourced to a separate customs house agent.
