Multimodal Transport

Multimodal transport, also known as combined transport, involves the seamless movement of goods using multiple modes of transportation—such as sea, land, rail, and air—under a single contract. This approach integrates different transport modes to optimize efficiency, reduce costs, and enhance overall logistics performance.

A multimodal transport operator (MTO) or carrier takes responsibility for the entire journey, coordinating the various legs of transportation and ensuring a smooth transition between modes.

Multimodal transport offers a comprehensive solution, particularly beneficial for international shipments where goods traverse diverse geographical regions.
