Envíe los planos de taller para aprobación al menos dos semanas antes de un feriado largo: las revisiones se detienen mientras ingenieros y autoridades están ausentes.
El despacho aduanero y la liberación de contenedores se detienen en los feriados; el almacenaje y la demora siguen corriendo. Programe la ETA después del receso.
Costo puesto en Kenya →El alquiler de grúas, los permisos de transporte y el acceso a obra son limitados en torno a los feriados. Acuerde con antelación la secuencia de montaje y las ventanas de entrega.
Nuestra planta planifica la producción en torno al Tết (Año Nuevo Lunar) y el Día Nacional: fijamos las fechas de entrega de su proyecto con mucha antelación a ambos.
Solicitar cotización →Las fechas siguen las listas oficiales del gobierno cuando están publicadas. Las fechas islámicas y otras que dependen del avistamiento lunar, así como los feriados aún no oficializados para el próximo año, se marcan como "estimada" y pueden variar un día. Confirme siempre con su socio local antes de fijar un plazo.
