A 300 KG load into Denmark is squarely bulk commercial freight. At this size, ocean (FCL or LCL) and air-charter pricing tighten up considerably. Most regular importers run scheduled ocean for their standing orders and keep air in reserve for urgent gaps.
- Ocean FCL can pay off once you pass roughly 5 CBM
- LCL ocean rates are billed per cubic metre in this range
- Plan for a customs exam — have complete documentation ready
- Insure anything over about USD 5,000 in declared value

Shipping Guidelines for Denmark
Frequently Asked Questions
What does it cost to ship from China to Denmark?
Rates from China to Denmark move with weight, mode and commodity. On the tax side, the rule is: Import VAT 17–27% by member state; duty 0–12% by TARIC code. Send weight and dimensions and we'll come back inside 24 hours with a full rate plus optional managed clearance.
What import duty and tax will I pay bringing goods into Denmark?
Entries into Denmark are assessed by the national EU customs authority, and the regime that applies is: Import VAT 17–27% by member state; duty 0–12% by TARIC code. On de-minimis, the position is EUR 150 (duty-free threshold). RateHive offers managed clearance and tax processing — a coordination service, not Incoterms DDP — to handle these formalities for you.
How does RateHive's managed clearance into Denmark work?
Managed clearance into Denmark is a coordination service — it isn't Incoterms DDP. We file the customs entry and arrange the duty/tax owed to the national EU customs authority (the de-minimis position being EUR 150 (duty-free threshold)) so you don't have to broker it yourself.
FCL or LCL ocean for 300 KG into Denmark?
At 300 KG into Denmark, LCL through Rotterdam, Antwerp, Hamburg is normally right unless you exceed ~5–6 CBM or ship on a regular cycle. FCL pays off past roughly 15,000–18,000 KG and removes commingling risk during clearance by the national EU customs authority.
What currency are Denmark rates quoted and settled in?
We quote and invoice freight in USD; the destination-side currency in Denmark is EUR. Payment usually falls due before departure (T/T or PayPal), and with managed clearance you settle the landed cost once rather than facing collect charges on arrival.
Can I move batteries by Air Freight into Denmark?
Battery cargo flies into Denmark under handling controls: built-in cells follow IATA PI966/PI967, loose cells need separate classification. We run certified battery channels through the main international gateway airport, with surcharges of roughly USD 3–8/KG.
What paperwork clears customs in Denmark?
the national EU customs authority will generally want: a commercial invoice carrying HS codes and value; a packing list with weights and dimensions; the bill of lading or air waybill; a certificate of origin where it can cut duty; and any commodity-specific certification (CE marking + IOSS for low-value B2C parcels). RateHive can prepare and lodge these as part of managed clearance.
Is my shipment to Denmark trackable?
Yes. Air moves on an air waybill (AWB) that's live within 24 hours of departure; ocean tracks by bill of lading through the carrier portal. We flag the milestones that matter — departure, gateway arrival, clearance by the national EU customs authority, and final delivery.
