How do you ship cargo to South Sudan from the UK? *(lever: transit corridor)*
With no coastline, South Sudan is reached in two legs: ocean freight to Mombasa or Port Sudan, then a long road haul to Juba. Sea-plus-road suits barrels, boxes, furniture and 20ft/40ft containers; air freight into Juba is the fast, reliable option for urgent or high-value goods. We handle LCL/groupage and FCL, collecting anywhere in the UK into our Dagenham depot.
How long does shipping from the UK to South Sudan take?
Sea-plus-road cargo generally takes 8–10 weeks — ocean transit plus the inland corridor and border clearance, which can extend in the rainy season. Air freight to Juba is typically a few working days. We quote a realistic window per shipment.
What does it cost to ship to South Sudan?
Air freight is £5.90 per kg plus £20 handling — often the dependable choice for this route. Sea cargo starts from £70 per bag — call or email for a quote on barrels, boxes and containers. Everything is all-in, in GBP. Send your item list and destination for an exact figure.
