Why Electronics Logistics Demands Specialisation
Electronics cargo — semiconductors, PCBs, consumer electronics, telecom equipment, medical devices — is among the most demanding in logistics. Static damage, vibration, moisture, and temperature fluctuations can destroy components worth crores. Customs misclassification can result in duties, delays, and compliance penalties.
ONS Logistics has invested in ESD-safe handling, climate-controlled storage where required, and a documentation team trained in the HS codes and import regulations specific to electronics across major markets.
Electronics Logistics Services
ESD-Safe Handling & Packaging:: Electrostatic discharge protection throughout our facilities for sensitive components and PCBs.
Air Freight Priority:: Fast-track air cargo for high-value electronics where transit speed justifies the premium.
Customs Classification Support:: Correct HS code classification to avoid destination-country duty disputes — critical for electronics where misclassification is common.
Door-to-Door Tracking:: End-to-end GPS-tracked logistics with real-time visibility through our client portal.
Secure Storage:: Monitored, access-controlled warehousing for high-value electronics inventory.
Returns & Reverse Logistics:: Efficient returns management for electronics brands managing warranty or e-commerce returns.
Regulatory Compliance for Electronics Exports
Electronics exported to the EU must comply with RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) and WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) directives. Products entering the US need FCC compliance documentation. The UAE requires ESMA certification for certain electronic goods.
Our compliance team tracks these requirements and ensures your export documentation — including test reports, declarations of conformity, and certificates — is complete and accurate before shipment, preventing costly delays at destination customs.
Your Electronics Logistics Questions, Answered
Everything you need to know before partnering with ONS Logistics for your industry's freight needs.
ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) can permanently damage sensitive electronic components without any visible sign of damage. ESD-safe handling uses anti-static packaging materials, grounded workbenches, and trained staff to prevent charge buildup during packing and loading.
We use moisture-barrier packaging, silica gel desiccants, anti-static bags, foam cushioning, and climate-logged containers for sensitive electronics on sea freight. For extremely high-value cargo, we recommend air freight to minimise transit time and handling.
Common mistakes include mis-classifying assembled products vs components, confusing Chapter 84 (machinery) and Chapter 85 (electrical equipment) headings, and incorrect classification of parts vs finished goods. These errors can lead to unexpected import duties or customs holds at destination.
Yes, but lithium battery cargo requires strict IATA Dangerous Goods (DG) compliance — including correct UN number, packing instruction (PI 965/966/967), state of charge limits, and DG declaration. Our certified DG team handles all documentation and ensures airline acceptance.
We can facilitate bonded warehousing arrangements through our customs broker partners, allowing electronics imports to be stored duty-deferred until clearance or re-export.
