Volumetric weight
Volumetric weight = (L × W × H in cm) ÷ divisor. You are charged on the greater of actual and volumetric weight.
| Lane | Divisor | Example (1 box) |
|---|---|---|
| Domestic Australia | ÷ 4,000 | 40×30×20cm = 6.0 kg |
| Australia ⇄ Vietnam (air & sea) | ÷ 6,000 | 40×30×20cm = 4.0 kg |
| Domestic Vietnam | ÷ 5,000 | 40×30×20cm = 4.8 kg |
