Shipping marine fish to Hong Kong
We ship to Hong Kong through Hong Kong HKG, with a typical transit of ~18 hours via via gulf or asian hub. Marine fish travel by air freight from our two Kenyan gateways, Mombasa (MBA) and Nairobi (NBO), and we plan each consignment for the shortest reliable route to your airport — because transit time is the single biggest factor in arrival condition. You receive tracking and documents in advance so you can pre-clear customs and collect the box promptly. For more on routing, see our airline guide and international shipping page.
Import requirements for Hong Kong
Hong Kong import requirements apply. KEPHIS health certificate required. CITES import documentation needed for listed species. Hong Kong is a free port with efficient clearance. As your exporter we prepare the origin-side documentation — KEPHIS health certification, the commercial invoice and packing list, and CITES export permits for any listed species. You are responsible for meeting Hong Kong’s own import requirements, and we will advise on what your destination is likely to need. Our CITES guide and importing guide walk through the full process. Always confirm current rules with your national authority, as requirements change.
