1. Send a clear enquiry
Start with the four facts an exporter needs to price accurately: your destination port, monthly volume, grade (or grade mix) and pack format. With those, you get availability and indicative pricing quickly instead of a back-and-forth. You can send all of this through our request-a-quote form.
2. Approve samples or a specification
Before any production is committed, approve either sample cartons or a full specification sheet. This locks grade, weight bands, Haugh unit expectations and packing so there are no surprises on arrival. See our grades and specifications for the standard weight bands.
3. Confirm commercial terms
A proforma invoice fixes the incoterm, payment mode and shipment window in writing. Most India egg exports move on FOB or CFR; CIF and DAP are quoted where the route allows. Payment is usually advance or an irrevocable letter of credit at sight against documents.
4. Grading, packing and shipping
Eggs are lifted from contracted units, graded, candled and crack-screened, then packed into 360-egg master cartons and stuffed into a pre-cooled reefer held at 5–8 °C. A 40 ft reefer carries about 360,000 eggs; a 20 ft about 150,000. See packing and logistics.
5. Documentation and arrival
Your document set — veterinary health certificate, certificate of origin, bill of lading, commercial invoice and packing list, plus Halal where required — is issued and couriered so the container clears the first time. Full detail is on our export process page.
