What Our Customers Say

"CE and REACH checked before the container sailed"

One of our SKUs would have been stopped for a REACH substance. ExFreight caught it during booking, not at the border, which saved a rejected container.

Miguel Pérez

Naples, Italy

220+ shipments

"JFK to Malpensa overnight for sample runs"

Our fashion samples fly JFK to Malpensa overnight during the show season. ExFreight clears them under temporary admission and returns what does not sell.

Anna Kowalski

Milan, Italy

350+ shipments

"Correct TARIC code, 4.7% less duty"

The classification we inherited was wrong by one heading and cost us 4.7% on every entry. ExFreight rewrote it and produced the binding tariff information to back it up.

James O'Brien

Rome, Italy

200+ shipments

"LCL to Livorno for our smaller runs"

For pallet quantities to Tuscany, ExFreight LCL rates to Livorno beat everything we found and the consolidation window is weekly, not fortnightly.

Elena Rossi

Florence, Italy

270+ shipments

"Italy as the entry point, then all of the EU"

We clear once in Genoa and the goods circulate freely to our warehouses in France and Spain. One clearance, one broker, three markets.

Thomas Lang

Genoa, Italy

310+ shipments

"Seven years and not one held container"

ExFreight has managed our USA-Italy freight since 2019. Through the Genoa bridge works and the ICS2 rollout, every shipment cleared on the first submission.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does shipping from USA to Italy take?
Air freight 2-4 days door to airport. Ocean FCL 16-22 days port to port. LCL 24-32 days. Italian customs clearance runs 1-3 business days when the declaration is filed before arrival, which is how we file it.
We quote instantly from 50+ carriers on the USA-Italy lane, file the AIDA declaration ourselves, and hold the CE marking paperwork on file so a shipment never waits at the border for a document.
Air: $3.60-$7.20/kg. Ocean FCL 20′: $2,200-$4,900. FCL 40′: $2,900-$6,400. LCL: $46-$86/CBM. Rates move with season and space; the instant quote tool shows live pricing for your exact shipment.
Italian import VAT at 22%, deferrable with a customs warehouse or a fiscal representative. EU common external tariff, cleared once and free to circulate across the 27 member states. We calculate the landed cost before you book, not after the goods arrive.
Declarations are filed electronically through AIDA to Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli. Importers need CE marking, REACH registration, and Made-in labelling rules on consumer goods. ExFreight prepares the filing and works with licensed local brokers on every entry.
We operate weekly sailings from US East Coast ports to Genoa, La Spezia, Livorno and Trieste. Air cargo flies direct to Milan Malpensa (MXP) and Rome Fiumicino (FCO). We book on all of them and pick by landed cost, not by habit.
Yes. Special rates for Amazon.it prep, CE marking checks, EU pallet specs and delivery to fulfillment centers in Castel San Giovanni, Passo Corese and Torrazza. We label, palletize to local specification, and book the delivery appointment.
Consolidate into full containers where volume allows, book LCL on our weekly consolidation instead of ad-hoc, classify goods under the correct tariff heading, and pick the gateway closest to your final destination. We model all four before quoting.
Air freight (2-4 days door to airport) suits urgent, high-value or low-volume cargo. Ocean costs less per kilo: FCL 16-22 days for a full container, LCL 24-32 days when you cannot fill one. As a rule air wins under roughly 200 kg or against a tight deadline, ocean wins on everything larger. We quote both on every booking so you compare landed cost, not just freight.
We file the AIDA declaration to Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli and work with a licensed broker on every entry, so you do not need your own. For most USA-Italy shipments we recommend DAP or DDP so ExFreight controls Italian customs clearance and delivery; on EXW or FOB we still arrange pickup and export. Tell us the Incoterm at quote and we structure the move around it.
Importers into Italy need CE marking, REACH registration, and Made-in labelling rules on consumer goods. Regulated categories such as food, cosmetics, electronics and batteries can need registration or licensing before arrival, and dangerous goods require IMO or IATA declarations. We check the classification against Italian customs rules before booking so nothing is stopped at the border.
Get an instant rate from 50+ carriers in the quote tool, accept online, and we handle pickup, export and Italian customs clearance. Book air 2-3 days ahead and ocean 1-2 weeks before the sailing to secure space and rates. Shippers running parallel lanes also move freight USA to Germany and USA to France, all quoted from the same USA freight forwarding hub.
