New Direct Shipment Service, Miami to Cuba

Maritime Activity Reports, Inc.

July 11, 2012

International Port Corp (IPC), via CubaPACK, offer the only weekly, OFAC- and US Department of Commerce-licensed service

Direct maritime humanitarian shipment service from the Miami River Port, USA to the Port of Havana, Cuba is now available.

IPC's new "direct next day to port service" supersedes the old third country maritime shipping times to the port of Havana of 30 to 60 days and offers the optional convenience of island-wide home delivery via CubaPACK, the largest delivery service company on the island.

Once in port, recipients have the option of picking up their shipments or using a one-week all-points Havana delivery service or a two-week island-wide delivery option supported by CubaPACK.

As of June 18, 2012, Cuban authorities officially curtailed allotments of duty free food parcels. In response to this new regulation, IPC offers a fully compliant small parcel and heavy durable goods service facilitating the humanitarian shipment of large items such as construction materials, home furniture, domestic electrical and electronic goods and car/machine parts.
