MULTIMODAL AND UNIMODAL TRANSPORTATION
Unimodal transportation is the transportation of goods by a single mode of transportation, be it car, train or airplane.
This method is preferred for short distances or when both parties are close to a transportation hub. The main advantages of unimodal transportation include less risk of cargo damage, simplified tracking, and less paperwork and coordination.
However, they are limited in capacity for long-distance international shipments and may not be economically viable on long routes.
Multimodal transportation, or intermodal, involves the use of multiple modes of transportation in a single logistics process. For example, goods can be transported by air from China to Poland and from there by train or automobile to Ukraine.
The advantages of multimodal transportation include route optimization and cost reduction, increased flexibility and door-to-door delivery. As well as reduced transportation time by using the most efficient modes of transportation for each stage.
Disadvantages of multimodal transportation include difficulty in coordinating and managing logistics, as well as possible delays in changing transportation.
The choice between unimodal and multimodal transportation depends on specific needs and conditions.
Multimodal transportation is more commonly used for international shipments as it allows combining the advantages of different modes of transportation, providing flexibility and efficiency.

The total cost of delivery of parcels or cargo from China to Ukraine may include two components:
- The shipping cost set by the courier service (FedEx, UPS, TNT, DHL).
- Customs duty, which is levied on any parcel with a value exceeding 150 euro.
For individuals - the 150 euro does not include the delivery price, and for legal entities - the duty-free limit of 150 euro includes the cost of delivery.
Example of duty calculation for parcels over 150 euro:
The notional value of the goods is 151 euros.
The base for taxation is: 151 - 150 = 1 euro.
Duty: (151 - 150) * 10% = 0,10 euro
Value Added Tax (VAT): (1 + 0.1) * 20% = 0.22 euro
Duty and taxes payable on a shipment of 151 €: duty 0.10 € + VAT 0.22 € = 0.32 €

It is also necessary to take into account that individuals and legal entities have different orders of customs clearance, which is not included in the delivery cost.
Example of delivery calculation for 10 kg parcels of size 50*20*20 cm:
Let's calculate the volume weight in cm: 50*20*20=20000/5000 = 4 kg
Cost of delivery calculation will be by actual weight of 10 kg
You choose the service delivery: express or economy.
Insurance is usually 1% of the price.
