Air cargo from Nepal to Germany
Germany is the largest European market for Nepali hand-knotted carpets and a leading buyer of pashmina, felt and handmade-paper products; Frankfurt and Hamburg wholesalers and fair-trade importers order regularly.
Goldcross Cargo arranges air freight from KTM — Tribhuvan International, Kathmandu to Frankfurt (FRA), Munich (MUC), Berlin (BER), Düsseldorf (DUS) and Hamburg (HAM). Our own Kathmandu office handles the booking, the airway bill and the export paperwork, and the shipment is tracked with its airway-bill number on the airline’s website.
