Plan around local peaks in Mumbai
Weather and season: Monsoon (June to September) brings heavy rain that can delay ground handling. We build buffer time into routings and switch to alternative airports when needed.
Holidays: In India, Diwali (October/November), Holi and regional festivals that differ by state can slow down customs, airlines and trucking. Book early and send documents in advance around these dates.
Customs clearance in Mumbai
Every import and export from Mumbai needs a customs declaration. In India, customs clearance is handled by a dedicated partner team that works under the Ziem Logistics brand, to our procedures and with the shipment data we prepare. You deal only with Ziem Logistics, from booking to release.
