Bhutan at a glance
Watch out for: Bhutan is landlocked, so goods land in India and travel by road to Phuentsholing under transit. Paro has very limited cargo capacity, so most air freight lands in India first.

Trust Qube with Your Bhutan Freight
Need to send something to Bhutan? Positioned within the expansive land of south-central Asia, Bhutan stands as a small landlocked nation, gracefully perched upon the eastern ridges of the awe-inspiring Himalayas. Having been largely secluded for centuries, Bhutan has undertaken measured steps to embrace specific features of the outside world, all the while staunchly preserving its age-old traditions.
Despite its size, Bhutan showcases an incredible range of landscapes, spanning from towering peaks to lush valleys. Rooted deeply in Vajrayana Buddhism, Bhutan’s culture is more than just a religion, it’s a way of life. Throughout the landscape, monasteries, temples, and stupas stand as both spiritual sanctuaries and architectural marvels.
We will carry out your haulage to Bhutan or back to the UK quickly and securely. We will provide guidance on paperwork and clearing customs, so you won’t have to worry about a thing.
