What do FOB and CIF mean?
FOB is the tyre export price before ocean freight and insurance. CIF is FOB plus ocean freight and insurance to the destination port. CIF usually does not include destination duty, port charges, local clearance or inland delivery.
Can you quote CIF to my port?
Yes. Send destination country and port. We estimate tyre price, ocean freight, insurance and document scope separately.
Which African ports do you support?
Common routes include Lagos/Apapa, Mombasa, Tema, Douala, Abidjan, Dakar and Dar es Salaam. Other ports can be checked case by case.
Can I request inspection before payment?
Yes. For serious buyers we can arrange product photos, videos, packaging checks and document confirmation before final invoice.
Are local taxes and customs duty included?
Usually no. CIF covers cost, insurance and freight to port. Destination duty, port charges and local clearance depend on your country and agent.
How long does shipping take?
Most Africa routes are roughly 25-58 days depending on port, vessel schedule and customs timing.
Can you source a tyre size not listed?
Yes. The listed products are examples. Send size, pattern/application, quantity and destination port; we check China supply.
Do you support French-speaking buyers?
Yes. We support French communication for Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal, Cameroon and other francophone markets.
Can I place a wholesale container order?
Yes. Once tyre products, quote and loading plan are confirmed, we can start order reservation and payment instructions.
Still need a specific tyre quote?
Send destination port, tyre size, pattern/application and quantity. We reply with a structured quote.
