Which German ports and airports do forwarders use?

Hamburg is Germany’s largest port and a gateway for Central and Eastern Europe, with Bremerhaven and JadeWeserPort (Wilhelmshaven) adding deep-water capacity. Frankfurt (FRA) is the leading air-cargo hub, followed by Leipzig (LEJ) and Cologne (CGN).

Do shipments within the EU need customs clearance in Germany?

Intra-EU trade moves without customs formalities; only non-EU imports and exports are declared, through Germany’s ATLAS electronic customs system. Most German forwarders on CargoLinked handle ATLAS declarations and EU road/rail groupage.

What do Germany’s forwarders typically specialise in?

Reflecting German industry, common flows include automotive and parts, machinery and equipment, chemicals, and high-value industrial goods, often with just-in-time delivery. Filter by service type to match a provider to your cargo.
