1. What is EXW Ocean Freight (CY to CY) from Foshan to Papeete?
Before diving into our services, let’s clarify the key terms to ensure alignment with your shipping needs:
1.1 EXW (Ex Works) Terms Explained
EXW (Incoterms 2020) means the seller (you, or your Foshan supplier) makes the goods available at their premises (factory or warehouse) in Foshan. As the buyer, you are responsible for all costs and risks from the moment you take possession of the goods – but with BETTERluck Shipping as your agent, we take over this process for you. We handle factory pickup, packing, labeling, customs clearance in China, ocean freight, and delivery to Papeete’s CY, so you can focus on your business, not logistics.
1.2 CY to CY Shipping Definition
CY (Container Yard) to CY refers to the shipping mode where we receive your cargo at a container yard in Foshan (or nearby Guangzhou/Shenzhen ports) – after picking it up from your supplier’s factory – and deliver it to the container yard in Papeete. This is a cost-efficient choice for FCL (Full Container Load) and LCL (Less than Container Load) shipments, ideal for businesses importing Made-in-China goods to French Polynesia.
1.3 Route Overview: Foshan (Guangdong) to Papeete, French Polynesia
Foshan, located in the heart of Guangdong’s manufacturing hub, is strategically close to major Chinese ports like Guangzhou Port, Shenzhen Port, and Hong Kong Port. Your cargo will be transported from Foshan to one of these ports (via trucking), loaded onto a container ship, and shipped to Papeete – the main port of French Polynesia, serving Tahiti and surrounding islands. Our long-term partnerships with leading ocean carriers (Maersk, CMA CGM, MSC, etc.) ensure stable sailings and competitive rates for this route.

3. Our EXW Ocean Freight Process (Foshan to Papeete, CY to CY)
We’ve streamlined our process to minimize your effort and maximize efficiency. Here’s how it works:
Step 1: Free Quote & Consultation
Contact us with your shipment details: cargo type, weight/volume, Foshan supplier’s address, desired shipping date, and FCL/LCL preference. Our team will provide a free, detailed quote within 24 hours, including all costs (pickup, packing, customs, freight, CY delivery). We’ll also advise you on EXW best practices (e.g., what your supplier needs to prepare).
Step 2: Order Confirmation & Documentation
Once you confirm the quote, we’ll send you a booking confirmation. We’ll work with your Foshan supplier to coordinate pickup and collect necessary documents: commercial invoice, packing list, certificate of origin (if applicable), and any other documents required for Chinese customs and French Polynesian import.
Step 3: EXW Factory Pickup & Packing
Our trucking team will arrive at your supplier’s factory in Foshan at the scheduled time to pick up the cargo. If needed, we’ll provide professional packing (e.g., wooden crates for fragile goods, shrink wrap for furniture) to ensure safe transit. We’ll label the cargo with your shipping marks and container number for easy tracking.
Step 4: Transport to Foshan/Guangzhou/Shenzhen Port CY
The packed cargo will be transported by truck to the nearest container yard (CY) in Foshan, Guangzhou, or Shenzhen. We’ll load it into a container (FCL) or consolidate it with other shipments (LCL) before moving it to the port for customs clearance.
Step 5: Chinese Customs Clearance
Our customs specialists will prepare and submit all documentation to Chinese customs. We’ll handle duty calculation, inspection (if required), and ensure your cargo complies with all export regulations. Once cleared, the container will be loaded onto the ship.
Step 6: Ocean Freight to Papeete
We’ll book your cargo on a scheduled ship to Papeete. You’ll receive a bill of lading (B/L) – the legal document for your shipment – and real-time tracking information. Our team will monitor the ship’s progress and update you on any changes (e.g., weather delays).
Step 7: Arrival in Papeete & Customs Clearance
When the ship arrives in Papeete, our local agent will handle customs clearance. They’ll submit the required documents to French Polynesian customs, pay any duties/taxes (if applicable), and ensure the cargo is released.
Step 8: Delivery to Papeete CY
Finally, the container will be transported to Papeete’s container yard (CY). We’ll notify you when the cargo is ready for pickup, and our local agent can assist with inland transport to your warehouse (optional service).

40ft Container: 67 CBM capacity, fits 25-28 tons of cargo (e.g., machinery, electronics).
40ft HQ (High Cube): 76 CBM capacity, ideal for light, bulky goods.
4.2 LCL (Less than Container Load)
Ideal for shipments under 15 CBM (e.g., small orders, samples).
