Tianjin Xingang is the main seaport for Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. It sits at the western end of the Bohai Sea, so every ocean corridor first crosses the Bohai Sea and the Bohai Strait.

Rail from inland dry ports into Tianjin Xingang is used for some cargo; whether it applies is confirmed per shipment.

Questions

Tianjin → Isla Aguada: three common questions

Usually the Beijiang or Dongjiang port area of Tianjin Xingang, depending on the carrier and booking. The three options are door pickup (trucking from Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei factories, plus rail-sea legs from inland north China), delivery to a warehouse or CFS that handles battery cargo, or delivery to the terminal gate; the quote states which one applies.

Only when the booking and bill of lading name Isla Aguada (18.79°N, 91.49°W). A city or country name in an enquiry is not proof of discharge; after the port, customs release and delivery to an address are separate steps.

Start with the cargo description, battery configuration, condition statement, UN 38.3 test summary and SDS. The checklist on this page lists the rest.
