Scope

What we take off your desk

A nomination should reduce your workload, not move it. Here is what sits with us once you hand over a file.

Customs, under our own licence

Rule 355 licensed. Import and export Goods Declarations filed on WeBOC and PSW, examinations attended in person, queries answered directly.

Haulage on owned equipment

Containers moved between KPT, Port Qasim and shipper or consignee premises across Karachi on trucks we own.

Carrier & terminal liaison

Bookings, gate-in against cut-off, Delivery Orders, terminal charges, empty container returns.

Warehouse handling

Consolidation, de-consolidation, palletising, re-marking and storage between production and vessel.

Documentation

B/L instructions, Certificates of Origin, Form-E coordination on exports, and the document set your customer needs at destination.

Reporting to you

Milestones automatically pushed as they happen, so you are never the last to know what your own shipment is doing.

Cargo

Nominations we handle regularly

Pakistan’s export base is concentrated, and each sector carries its own documentation and handling demands. These are lanes we run often.

Textiles & home textiles

Pakistan’s largest export category — high-volume FCL programmes on tight buyer deadlines out of Karachi.

Rice & agricultural goods

Seasonal volumes with fumigation, inspection and certification requirements that catch out inexperienced agents.

Surgical & medical instruments

Sialkot-origin cargo consolidated through Karachi, frequently by air when an order is urgent.

Sports goods & leather

Mixed consolidations and part loads that need careful de-stuffing and re-marking before shipment.

Machinery & industrial imports

Heavy and out-of-gauge import consignments needing coordinated haulage and often agency clearance.

Project & mixed cargo

Multi-supplier consignments brought together at our warehouse and shipped as one coordinated movement.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Can Fjord's Bay act as our Pakistan agent for nominated shipments?
Yes. We regularly act as the Pakistan handling agent for overseas freight forwarders and NVOCCs. On a nomination we handle customs, haulage, port supervision, documentation and local invoicing, and push live status updates to you and your consignee.
Which ports and terminals do you cover as an agent?
All Karachi gateways: Karachi Port (KPT) including KICT and SAPT, and Port Qasim including QICT and PICT — the entry/exit points for the overwhelming majority of Pakistan's sea trade.
How do we get status updates?
Our operations desk sends structured milestone updates (booking, gate-in, loaded on board, sailed, arrival, clearance, delivery) by email/WhatsApp, and we can push automated updates to nomination partners — see our AI shipment tracking.
Do you handle both import nominations and export nominations?
Both. For imports into Pakistan we clear and deliver to the consignee; for exports we handle origin customs, EFS where applicable, haulage and loading, and forward documents to you.
Why choose an independent agent over a global network branch?
Accountability. You get a named team that answers the phone, owns problems, and doesn't hide behind a call centre — with an owned haulage fleet so port moves aren't at the mercy of subcontractors.
Do you work with forwarders in the UK, USA, Europe and the Middle East?
Yes. We act as the Pakistan handling agent for forwarders and NVOCCs worldwide, and the destination makes no difference to what we do here — the Pakistan leg is the same whether the box is going to Felixstowe, New York, Hamburg or Jebel Ali.
What information do you need to quote a nomination?
The commodity, container type or LCL volume, the incoterm, the ports involved and roughly how often the lane will run. With that we can quote the Pakistan leg with the scope written out line by line, so there are no charges you were not expecting.
Are you tied to a global network?
No, and for a nomination partner that is usually an advantage. We are independent, so we are not obliged to route a file through a head office or decline work that competes with a network member. Decisions about your shipment get made in Karachi by the people handling it.
Can we start with a single trial shipment?
Yes, and we would encourage it. Most lasting partnerships we have began with one file that the forwarder watched closely. Judge us on how that shipment is handled and how well you were kept informed.
