➤ Get cost-effective shipping solutions from Canada to Ecuador with LAC! We offer the best air freight & container shipping services in the Americas
Exporting goods to Ecuador from Canada, whether it is for the first time, or on a regular basis, can be a challenging experience. There are many elements to consider when shipping to a country such as Ecuador.
If you are in Canada and not entirely familiar with the Latin American market, you should consider a cargo shipping company that knows the business culture, the language, the customs regulations and has a proven track record of success when it comes to freight shipping to Ecuador.
During the past 25 years, our specialized logistics and freight forwarding services by land, ocean, and air have helped various Canadian importers to succeed in the Latin American markets.
Using our expertise, our vast network of carriers, and extensive knowledge of the business culture, we give you the peace of mind you need to continue developing stronger relationships with your suppliers.
Are you looking to ship cargo containers from Canada to Ecuador? Our ocean transportation service from Canada to Ecuador covers all the major ports: Vancouver, Prince Rupert, Halifax, Montreal, Quebec, and Saint John. We offer door-to-door, door-to-port and port-to-port transportation services from Canada to Ecuador, depending on your specific needs.
With our door-to-door service you will be able to have your cargo delivered to different inland cities such as Quito, Cuenca, Santo Domingo de los Colorados, Ambato, Loja, Riobamba, and many others. We will transport your cargo via the Port of Guayaquil, the main and most convenient port in Ecuador.
The transit time to ship a container from Canada to Ecuador is estimated between 25 to 50 days from port to port. The number of days will vary depending on the required service route and sailing schedule.
Full Container Load (FCL) shipping provided by Latin American Cargo is a secure and efficient method for transporting cargo between Canada and Ecuador.
With FCL, the entire ocean container is filled with your merchandise, ensuring exclusive access and control over the packing and security of your goods. This method is considered one of the safest and most cost-effective ways to ship goods internationally.
FCL offers more control over shipping conditions and eliminates the need to share container space with other shipments. Our FCL ocean freight services give businesses the peace of mind that their goods are transported in a dedicated container, minimizing handling and reducing the risk of damage.
Our specialized service caters to the shipping needs of companies looking for reliable and controlled transportation for their cargo.
Less than a Container Load (LCL) shipping offered by Latin American Cargo is economical for transporting smaller cargo volumes. LCL is the way to go if you don’t have enough goods to fill an entire 20- or 40-foot ocean container.
LCL freight involves sharing container space with other customers shipping to the same destination, resulting in more affordable rates for shipping small quantities.
This method allows businesses to avoid the cost of shipping a full container while still benefiting from ocean freight services. LCL is particularly suitable for shipments that don’t require a dedicated container.
Our services provide a cost-effective option for businesses moving smaller cargo volumes from Canada to Ecuador, enhancing flexibility and affordability in international shipping.

If you are shipping merchandise to Ecuador by sea or air for the first time, guidance and support will surely be needed, as there are guidelines, prohibitions and restrictions to consider.
Documentation requirements vary depending on the category of goods being shipped and can get quite extensive. They usually include a Commercial invoice, Bill of lading / Air waybill, Packing list, Insurance certificate, and Certificate of Origin (if required). To avoid delays or hassles when shipping to Ecuador, your packing list must be as detailed as possible. Vague wording like “miscellaneous” attracts negative attention and further inspections.
Regulations can be strict on certain categories of goods being imported to Ecuador. Prior authorization or special permits may be needed for certain items, such as agricultural products, processed foods, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics or antiques. Prohibited commodities include certain used vehicles, used clothing and accessories, used tires, certainly used machinery and all types of toxic wastes or dangerous residues.
Duties and tariffs are usually based on the total value of the shipment in question, and depending on how well-documented the cargo is, those values could be determined by the judgment of Customs Officials on the spot.
