Does the price include shipping?
No. Shipping depends on the destination, the weight and the method, so it is quoted separately with your order rather than buried in the per-piece price — partly so you can see it, and partly so you can use your own freight or courier account if you have one. Duties on export orders are quoted up front with the order too, so the landed cost is known before you commit.
How shipping is quoted
By weight and destination, for the method that suits the order. Within Pakistan we deliver nationwide, usually one to three days after dispatch. Internationally, courier — DHL, FedEx — is the default for orders up to a couple of cartons and takes three to seven days to the UK, US, Canada, Australia and the Gulf; sea freight is quoted where the quantity makes it worthwhile, typically from a few hundred pieces, and takes weeks rather than days. A carton of 50 hoodies weighs about 40 kg; a carton of 50 tees about 12 kg — which is why the shipping line on a tee order is small and on a hoodie order is not.
Duties and taxes
For export orders the quote states the duty rate for your destination and the tariff line, in money per piece. Some markets are duty-free for Pakistani garments — the UK and the EU under their trade preference schemes — and others are not: around 5% into the Gulf and Australia, 18% into Canada, 16.5% and up into the US depending on fibre. Import VAT or GST is a separate line and is usually recoverable if your business is registered. If you want one delivered price with nothing to pay on arrival, ask for DDP terms; if you have your own forwarder, ask for FOB Karachi.
