- • Fasteners are typically classified under HS Chapter 73 for import into Benin — confirm the exact HS subheading and current duty rate with your customs broker.
- • We supply mill test certificates and export documentation (commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin) for customs clearance.
- • Both FCL (full container load) and LCL (less than container load) shipping are available depending on order volume.
Minimum Order — Container Quantity (Approx.)
A standard 20ft container (~20 tons) holds approximately 250,000-400,000 pieces of eye bolts in common sizes (M10-M12). Exact quantity depends on size and type and is confirmed at quote time.
You don't need a full container to order. Hurain Engitech & Trade — the group Global Fasteners Exports operates under — regularly ships smaller, partial-container (LCL) orders of just a few pallets or boxes for buyers who don't yet need FCL volume, consolidated with other cargo to keep freight cost reasonable.
