Shipping from Canada to Sousse
Sousse is a coastal city on the Gulf of Hammamet in eastern Tunisia, about 115 km in a straight line from Tunis, where A1's rate stops at the destination warehouse. Departures from Toronto, the cheapest gateway, or Montreal take about 38 days; Vancouver adds roughly ten, at about 48 days. Expect USD 9 per cubic foot and USD 799.62 for the smallest shipment. Common loads include household belongings, furniture for a family home and supplies for small hotels or shops.
Once customs at the port of entry is done, someone has to collect the cargo in Tunis or hire a truck for the drive south to Sousse; this is not included, and duties and taxes are paid locally. Prepare a commercial invoice, and check prohibited products before the cargo leaves Canada. Bring the goods to an A1 warehouse already palletized or crated on heat-treated ISPM 15 wood, because A1 does not pick up or palletize. For personal effects, carrier approval, a signed packing list and a passport copy are needed. Charges at the Tunis end are confirmed by the carrier before payment.
How a shipment to Sousse works
Sousse is not a destination in the carrier's tariff. The closest priced destination is Tunis about 115 km (straight line) from Sousse: the A1 price covers ocean freight from Canada to the destination warehouse (CFS) at Tunis. From there the consignee collects the cargo or books the last leg to Sousse with a local trucking company; that delivery, destination customs clearance, duties and taxes are not in the A1 price.
