The port of Callao in particular offers ideal conditions for shipping vehicles, machinery and rollable project cargo. Thanks to RoRo (roll-on\/roll-off), predictable processes, short port times and low packaging costs are possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In 2025, stricter requirements will also apply to emissions, fuels and vehicle registration. Those who set up their booking process properly will save time and avoid unnecessary additional costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Key message:<\/strong><br>Successful shipping to Peru requires complete data, realistic schedules, properly prepared vehicles and clear customs coordination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Routes &amp; transit times: How to plan realistically<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Typical RoRo routes start in Northern Europe (e.g. Hamburg, Bremerhaven, Zeebrugge) and travel via the Atlantic, Panama Canal and Pacific to Callao. Depending on the service, Paita or Matarani may also be possible destination ports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Influencing factors:<\/strong> Season, weather, canal passages and slot availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Useful tools:<\/strong><br>Timetables \u2192 <a href=\"https:\/\/odsorient.com\/en\/driving-plans\/\">https:\/\/odsorient.com\/fahrplaene<\/a><br>Transit times Europe \u2192 South America: RoRo transit times 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Tip:<\/strong> If you are flexible regarding the destination port or departure date (\u00b11 week), you increase your chances of getting a suitable slot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comparison of transport modes: RoRo vs. containers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Criterion<\/th><th>RoRo<\/th><th>Container<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>packaging<\/td><td>None\/low (roadworthy)<\/td><td>Required (packaging, stowage)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Harbour handling<\/td><td>Quick (gate-in, lashing)<\/td><td>More steps (CY, Devanning)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Cost structure<\/td><td>Dimensions\/weight-based<\/td><td>Equipment\/rate-based<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>suitability<\/td><td>Vehicles, trailers, machinery<\/td><td>General cargo, fragile goods<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Risk\/Handling<\/td><td>Fewer envelopes<\/td><td>More envelopes\/man-days possible<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/odsorient.com\/en\/what-do-i-have-to-consider-with-a-roro-shipment\/\">What do I need to bear in mind for a RoRo shipment?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The digital booking process \u2013 step by step<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Enquiry &amp; Routing<\/strong><br>Port of departure\/destination, ETD\/ETA time frame, vehicle details, desired services.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Offer &amp; slot reservation<\/strong><br>Individual quote after data verification.
