Cargo from Edinburgh
to Kolkata

Door-to-door shipping from Scotland to West Bengal, India. Air and Sea freight with all duties included.

Cargo Force operates a dedicated Edinburgh-to-Kolkata corridor covering roughly 8,039 km between Edinburgh (EDI) and Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International (CCU). Air freight on this route is a fixed-promise 14 working days at £4/kg, while sea freight LCL consolidates from our Wembley warehouse and delivers in a fixed 45 working days at £2.5/kg — up to 37.5% cheaper than air freight on the per-kg rate. All transit times are counted from the next working day after payment received. Free doorstep pickup is included across the Scotland EH1-EH55 postcode footprint, with regular collection routes through Edinburgh City, Leith, Morningside, Newington, Livingston and landmark hubs such as Leith Walk. Door delivery in Kolkata (population ~14,974,000) covers Park Street, Salt Lake, Howrah, New Town, Ballygunge, Behala, Dumdum and every suburb inside the 700001-700157 pincode range, with SMS alerts on Indian customs clearance and final-mile dispatch. Our Edinburgh (population ~524,930) team handles enquiries in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, which makes this corridor a popular pick for the growing professional community sending family parcels, traditional clothing and household goods to West Bengal. Kolkata is cultural capital of India, strong Bengali traditions, so book 3-4 weeks ahead of Durga Puja and Diwali for guaranteed seasonal delivery; Kolkata is a metro hub with frequent inbound capacity, so the fixed 14-working-day air promise applies — counted from the next working day after payment received. Quoted prices are all-inclusive: UK collection, export documentation, Edinburgh (EDI) or Felixstowe handover, Indian customs clearance, all import duties, GST/IGST and last-mile delivery to Kolkata are bundled into the per-kilogram rate, with deposit options from £50 or £10 per box. Lithium-battery items - laptops, phones, tablets, power banks and drones - cannot be shipped to Kolkata by either mode under international aviation safety rules, but you can send chargers, electric kettles, hair tools and other non-battery appliances without restriction.
