How to calculate dimensional weight

What you need when cargo ready

Is your shipment ready for carriage?
To meet performance expectations and current regulatory and security control requirements, Cambodia Angkor Air adheres to a rigorous goods acceptance process.
Such process requires your shipment to be ready for carriage as per the following:

• Shipments are acceptable for transportation only when the rules and regulations of the tariffs and all laws, ordinances, and other governmental rules and regulations governing the transportation thereof have been complied with by the shipper, consignee or owner.
• It is agreed that the goods shipped are accepted in apparent good order, are properlypackaged, are in a condition for carriage that is in conformity with IATAregulations, and are subject to the conditions of the contract (the Air Waybill).
• All shipments must be delivered on time and have a confirmed booking from origin to destination.
• Volume and weight must match the booking at time of acceptance.

Air waybill

• In conformity with IATA Resolution 600a, the air waybill must be accurate and complete in all respects, and must include weight, number of pieces, dimensions, nature of goods and all information required by Customs. Known or Unknown security status must also be included.
• In conformity with IATA Resolution 600b, the air waybill must contain the conditions of contract as per on the reverse side of original copies 1, 2, and 3.
• In conformity with IATA Recommended Practice 1670, the carriage of cargo using Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) to transmit the information of the air waybill (E-Air Waybill) is also acceptable (where authorized) and shall follow procedures and standards as required by IATA.
• When applicable, complete HAWB information must be available for manual input or electronically transmitted to either Air Canada or directly to Customs.

Note: Any adjustments made to an Air Waybill that could impact the expected billing amount, such as re-weighing, calculating or re-calculating the dimensional weight of your shipment, will be communicated to the shipper with a Notice of Correction. This Notice of Correction will be sent electronically to your attention.
