What is a CHA and do I need one to clear cargo in India?

A Customs House Agent (CHA) is a licensed broker who files import/export declarations through India’s ICEGATE customs system, classifies HS codes, and manages duties and DGFT licences. Most shippers use a CHA; many freight forwarders on CargoLinked provide CHA services in-house.

Which Indian ports and airports do forwarders use?

The primary ocean gateways are Nhava Sheva (JNPT, near Mumbai) and Mundra in the west, and Chennai in the south. Air cargo moves through Delhi (DEL), Mumbai (BOM), Bengaluru (BLR), and Hyderabad (HYD) — the last a major pharma-logistics hub.

Can India forwarders handle temperature-controlled pharma exports?

Yes. India is a leading pharmaceutical exporter, and many forwarders offer GDP-compliant cold-chain air freight with validated reefer containers and active/passive packaging. Post a freight request specifying temperature range and destination for matched quotes.
