Je! Habari ya ufuatiliaji inapatikana kwa meli ya usafirishaji?

Kwa bahati mbaya, hatuwezi kutoa habari hii.

How can I see if my vehicle has really been loaded onto the vessel as scheduled?

Please visit your CAP to view the progress of your shipment.

Ninaona meli mbili za usafirishaji zilizoorodheshwa kwenye CAP yangu. Hili ni kosa?

No, this is called transshipment. If you see two shipping vessels listed on your CAP, your cargo will be loaded onto one vessel when departing from Japan and will be reloaded onto another prior to reaching its destination. This decision is made by the contracted shipping companies, and we, as exporters, do not have authority to intervene with their decisions.

Please note that transshipped cargo usually takes longer to travel from Japan to its final destination.

Je! Ninaweza kuona ikiwa gari langu limepita ukaguzi wake?

A PDF of your vehicle's inspection certificate will be uploaded to your CAP once it has been received from the inspection agency.

What information do you need from me to begin booking a shipping vessel for my vehicle?

The information below is required to book a shipping vessel for your cargo. Please read the following carefully and provide us with all requested information. Most information is required by the contracted shipping companies; not BE FORWARD.

Port of Discharge: Your nearest port where the vessel will unload your cargo.

Vehicle Destination: Where the vehicle will actually be used. Please provide the name of the country where the vehicle will be registered for use.

Mjumbe: This is the vehicle's "owner-to-be." Please list the consignee's full name as well as the "real" name shown on his/her passport or ID, full address (without any abbreviations), and phone number(s). To receive your B/L from the shipping company, it is mandatory that all of the consignee's information above be provided.

Also, when providing us with your booking information, it is important to understand the following:

● Your booking will be delayed by the shipping company if the consignee's full name and address are not provided. Complete information must be provided.
● The consignee's name cannot have any spelling mistakes. Even the smallest error can be subject to a B/L amendment, which may cost you additional fees and time.

Arifu Chama: This is the person that the shipping agent contacts to notify the confirmed arrival date of your vessel to the port. If you have a private clearing agent, you may list them here, though it is not mandatory as you do not need to declare a clearing agent on the B/L. If you have not hired an agent, it is easiest to simply write in "Same as Consignee".

DHL Delivery Address: This information is required so that we can mail your documents, including your B/L, by DHL courier. Please provide the full name of the recipient, full address (without any abbreviations), and phone number(s). Please be warned that incomplete information may delay the dispatch of your documents.

Kwa nini kuna mabadiliko mengi na ucheleweshaji wa ratiba ya usafirishaji?

These changes are made by the contracted shipping companies and we, as exporters, do not have authority to intervene with their decisions.

Kwa nini ETA ya chombo cha usafirishaji iko wazi?

While we understand your need to have an up-to-date ETA in order to arrange necessary travel plans, it is left blank on your CAP because the contracted shipping company has not yet decided it. We kindly ask that you please wait.

Please note that CAP is designed to reflect the shipping company's decisions directly and immediately. Your understanding and patience on this matter are highly appreciated.

NYARAKA

Please visit this section to find answers about importation documents, required customer information, and tracking your documents once they have been shipped to you.

Wewe, kama muagizaji, unatakiwa kupokea hati zifuatazo:

1. Muswada wa shehena (B/L)
2. Hati ya Bima (ikiwa ununuzi wako ni CIF)
3. Cheti cha kuuza nje (pia inaitwa fomu ya "Cheti cha Usajili" au fomu ya "Kufuta Usajili")

The consignee is the vehicle's “owner-to-be.” Please list the consignee's full name as well as the “real” name shown on his/her passport or ID, full address (without any abbreviations), and phone number(s).

It is important to understand the following when providing us with your booking information:

・ Your booking will be delayed by the shipping company if the consignee's full name and address are not provided. Complete information must be provided.
・ The consignee's name cannot have any spelling mistakes. Even the smallest error can be subject to a B/L amendment, which may cost you additional fees and time.

I have a South African client who wants me to buy a vehicle from BE FORWARD on his/her behalf. Should I use the client's South African address for the DHL delivery address?

You need to verify that your client has an Import Permit from the ITAC and a Letter of Authority (LOA) from the NRCS before purchasing a vehicle on his/her behalf. The South African government has very strict regulations that allow only certified suppliers, who have obtained an Import Permit and LOA, to import foreign vehicles.

Kwa nini lazima nitoe jina kamili na anwani ya yule aliyetumwa?

Kampuni za usafirishaji zinahitaji habari kamili itolewe. The B/L is an official document that determines/proves the owner of the cargo and, therefore, the consignee's full name and address, as written on his/her passport or ID must be used.

・ Your booking will be delayed by the shipping company if the consignee's full name and address are not provided. Complete information must be provided.
・ The consignee's name cannot have any spelling mistakes. Even the smallest error can be subject to a B/L amendment, which may cost you additional fees and time.

Chama cha Arifu ni nini?

This is the person that the shipping agent contacts to notify the confirmed arrival date of your vessel to the port. If you have a private clearing agent, you may list them here, though it is not mandatory as you do not need to declare a clearing agent on the B/L. If you have not hired an agent, it is easiest to simply write in “Same as Consignee.”

Je! Anwani ya Utoaji ya DHL ni nini?

This is the required information you provide so that we can mail your documents, including your B/L, by DHL courier. Please provide the full name of the recipient, full address (without any abbreviations), and phone number(s).

Please be warned that incomplete information may delay the dispatch of your documents.

Why must I provide the full name and address for the DHL Delivery Address?

This information is required so that we can mail your documents, including your B/L, by DHL courier. Please provide the full name of the recipient, full address (without any abbreviations), and phone number(s).

Please be warned that incomplete information may delay the dispatch of your documents.

Can I verify that all information is correct on the B/L before you send it?

Yes, we will upload a PDF of your B/L and other documents to your CAP.

Can I ask you to change vehicle information on the B/L or any other documents?

Absolutely not! Altering information on the B/L or on any other documents we provide you is illegal. BE FORWARD does not participate in illegal actions, regardless of the reason.

My country's customs office is asking for a packing list. Can you provide this document?

Hatutoi orodha ya kufunga, lakini yetu Ankara ya Biashara inaweza kuibadilisha. Habari zote zinazopatikana kwenye orodha ya kufunga zinajumuishwa kwenye ankara ya kibiashara. If you have concerns about submitting the commercial invoice to your country's customs office, please know that past customers have never had any problems with authorities as a result of using this document.

Je! Ninaweza kufuatilia nyaraka ambazo utanitumia?

Yes. Your CAP lists the DHL tracking number once your documents are processed for dispatch. The tracking number on your CAP will change to a DHL tracking log if you click on the number.

My DHL tracking log is not showing that my documents are being shipped. Is there something wrong?

We kindly ask that you wait 24 business hours before contacting us to report any problems with your DHL tracking log. The tracking log begins providing information once the package has been physically picked up and scanned into DHL's system by the DHL representative.

Because our staff is continually processing dispatches from opening to closing each business day, this may mean that your dispatch is processed after the last scheduled DHL pickup for the day, and will therefore be picked up on the next business day.

KUPOKEA MIZIGO YAKO

Please visit this section to find answers about your vehicle's ETA, obtaining a clearing agent, and using our home delivery service.

Ninaweza kupata wapi tarehe halisi ya kuwasili kwa meli ya usafirishaji?
