Advantages of Importing Through the Port of Rotterdam and Choosing Portex as Your Partner
The Port of Rotterdam handles approximately 438 million tonnes of freight annually. With its strategic location, excellent infrastructure, and extensive connectivity, it serves as the ideal gateway for moving cargo in and out of Europe. Additionally, it offers significant fiscal and competitive advantages.
One major advantage of importing through the Port of Rotterdam is the tax benefit. In most EU countries, VAT on imported goods must be paid immediately upon import. However, in the Netherlands, this payment can be deferred until the VAT return is filed, thanks to the authorization known as article 23. This allows businesses to optimize cash flow and manage finances more efficiently.
At Portex Logistics, we manage this process for you by handling customs procedures and the required documentation, making importing through Rotterdam hassle-free. This is just one of the many reasons why Portex is the right partner for your logistics needs.
Our offer
Portex Logistics offers both Full Container Load (FCL) and Less than Container Load (LCL) shipping services. From selecting the right container type to managing all documentation, we handle every detail to ensure a smooth client experience.
FCL shipment is perfect for clients who prioritize reducing the risk of damage, having more control over the delivery dates and transit times, as well as require increased security.
On the other hand, LCL shipment is ideal for clients who are looking to minimize costs, have flexibility over the load size, and would like to reduce their carbon footprint.

At Portex Logistics, we specialize in shipping a variety of goods, including:
- ADR Goods: Specialized transport for hazardous materials, ensuring compliance with all safety regulations.
- Oversized Cargo: Expertise in handling large or unusually shaped items that require special arrangements. Among them cars and machinery.

Integrated Sea Transport and Warehousing Services
At Portex Logistics, we guide you and your cargo through every step of the journey. Once your cargo arrives in the Netherlands, we coordinate the road transport to its final destination.
If you decide to bring an entire container of goods to Europe but aren’t ready for immediate delivery, we have you covered. We can store your goods in our warehouses until we receive the green light to proceed with delivery.
With transportation to our strategically located warehouses and seamless distribution services, we take the hassle out of managing your supply chain—allowing you to focus on growing your business.
