First-leg freight is the cost of moving goods from a factory or domestic warehouse to an overseas warehouse, platform fulfilment centre or destination port. This page estimates it from the chargeable weight or CBM you enter and the unit rate and surcharges on an official quote, contract or invoice. Carrier zone rates are not built in. This is not a freight invoice.
Total freight = (chargeable kg × rate per kg) + (CBM × rate per CBM) + a quoted base charge, plus a fuel surcharge on that subtotal and any remote-area or other fees. Chargeable weight can also come from dimensions and a divisor; see the chargeable-weight calculator.
It is commonly billed on chargeable weight (the greater of actual and volumetric weight) or on CBM, plus fuel and other add-ons. Use the official quote from the carrier or forwarder.
First-leg unit rates change with lane, service, season and contract, and there is no single official tariff we can republish. Enter the figures from your quote.
First-leg usually covers bulk or pallet moves into an overseas or platform warehouse. International express is typically priced per shipment and kilogram. The math is similar; the quote source is not.
