Courier Service

We organize to receive and send packages for you via courier service. The couriers we have in Grenada are:

For us to receive packages for you, please have the Sender send the package to this address:

M/Y XXXXXXXX (Yacht In Transit)
c/o Claire Budhlall-Spronk
SPRONK Ltd.
True Blue Main Road,
True Blue,
St. George's.
GRENADA.

Telephone (473) 439-4369 or 534-3688.

It is imperative that the Shipping Address has the name of the yacht on it, as a "Yacht in Transit", as well as our company name - Spronk Ltd. - and also that the package is labeled "Ships' Spares in Transit".

If the package contains anything other than documents, being a "Yacht in Transit", you are essentially entitled to your "Ships' Spares in Transit" duty-free; the only tariff that is payable is the Customs Service Charge (CSC), because although you are entitled to import your goods "duty-free", Customs still has to 'handle' your order and thus is entitled to a small Customs Service Charge, which is either 2.5% or 5% of the invoice & freight total - depending on the nature of the shipment (e.g. crew uniforms are subject to 5% CSC).

For anything other than documents, there MUST be an ORIGINAL invoice accompanying the shipment and another important thing to know is, even if your part is a replacement / repaired part that is a Warranty Job, the accompanying invoice MUST bear a value, even though there is no cost to you. This is because Customs must have a value on which to calculate the Customs Service charge that they are entitled to - obviously they cannot calculate anything on a Zero invoice, therefore even if there is no cost to you for the part(s), the invoice MUST have a value on it. It is also helpful if it is certified on the invoice that the item is under warranty & is being replaced / repaired at no cost to you. If the freight was pre-paid by the shipper, the freight charge must also appear on the invoice. Also, ensure that the name of your yacht, as a "Yacht in Transit", is clearly printed on the invoice.

Please ensure that the invoice DOES NOT say anywhere on it "Value for Customs Purposes Only" or "No Commercial Value" or "Proforma Invoice" - it can ONLY say "Invoice". If it bears terms other than simply "Invoice", Customs will think that they are not getting the correct Customs Value and thus WILL NOT ACCEPT your invoice, which will then mean a DELAY in getting your package until a proper invoice issued.

For sending a package, we will collect it from your yacht & send it for you via your courier of choice. Please ensure that the Recipient's Address you give us is complete and clear and you must also provide a telephone number for the Recipient, as most couriers require this.

We would suggest using FedEx, as your preferred choice of courier, for both sending and receiving packages, as they are definitely the most reliable courier when it comes to Grenada.
