Shipping from Canada to Debrecen, Hungary
Debrecen is Hungary's second-largest city, in the east of the country on the Great Hungarian Plain, about 186 km from Budapest in a straight line. A1 prices freight to the destination warehouse (CFS) in Budapest, and the M3/M35 motorway leg east is arranged by the consignee. Transit is about 37 days from Toronto or Montreal and 47 from Vancouver. Toronto is the cheaper gateway at USD 3 per cubic foot, and the smallest shipment is USD 370.96.
Debrecen's university draws many international students, and its growing manufacturing base adds business cargo, along with household goods of Hungarians returning from Canada. A commercial invoice is required, and personal effects travel on carrier approval with a signed packing list and a passport copy. Collection at the Budapest CFS and the truck to Debrecen are not included, and Hungarian customs, duties and taxes are extra. Keep the total customs value at CAD 2,000 or less, and bring the goods to our warehouse on ISPM 15 heat-treated pallets.
How a shipment to Debrecen works
Debrecen is not a destination in the carrier's tariff. The closest priced destination is Budapest about 186 km (straight line) from Debrecen: the A1 price covers ocean freight from Canada to the destination warehouse (CFS) at Budapest. From there the consignee collects the cargo or books the last leg to Debrecen with a local trucking company; that delivery, destination customs clearance, duties and taxes are not in the A1 price.
