Optimize Your Aircraft Parts Supply Chain with OSV FTWZ
Welcome to OSV FTWZ – Your Strategic Partner for Duty-Free Storage of Aircraft Parts

Duty and Tax-Free Storage
At OSV FTWZ, you can store your aircraft parts, such as avionics, engine components, and landing gear, without paying duties for up to 5 years. This means you can defer the costs associated with import duties, allowing you to keep more working capital available for other critical business activities. Instead of tying up funds in taxes, you can invest in growth, innovation, or other operational needs. This extended duty-free period provides financial flexibility and helps in better cash flow management, ensuring that your business remains agile and financially robust.
Flexibility in End Distribution
OSV FTWZ offers the ability to clear cargo in part consignments, providing significant flexibility in managing your inventory. If you import various aircraft components like fuselage sections, avionics, or turbine blades, you don't need to clear all your parts at once; instead, you can distribute them based on your immediate needs and demand forecasts. This approach helps in optimizing your supply chain, reducing unnecessary storage costs, and avoiding overstocking. By having the flexibility to clear parts as required, you can respond more effectively to market demands and reduce lead times, ensuring your operations are efficient and cost-effective.
Quality Control Prior to Duty Payment
One of the key advantages of storing your parts at OSV FTWZ is the ability to perform quality checks before paying any duties. For importers dealing with high-precision components like flight control systems, navigation equipment, or composite materials, this ensures that only parts that meet your stringent quality standards are cleared and paid for. By catching any defects or issues early, you avoid the costs and complications associated with importing substandard parts. This process not only saves money but also ensures that your operations run smoothly with high-quality components. The ability to inspect and verify the quality prior to payment enhances overall operational efficiency and reliability.
Exemption of SAD, VAT & CST
Utilizing FTWZ services at OSV means you benefit from exemptions on Special Additional Duty (SAD), Value Added Tax (VAT), and Central Sales Tax (CST). For importers of costly aircraft parts such as auxiliary power units (APUs), advanced avionics, and airframe parts, these exemptions significantly reduce the total cost of importing your aircraft parts, making your products more competitively priced in the market. The cost savings from these tax exemptions can be substantial, improving your profit margins and allowing you to allocate resources to other vital areas of your business. This fiscal advantage helps in enhancing your competitive edge and operational profitability.
Tax Exemption for Handling & Transportation
OSV FTWZ provides tax exemptions for the handling and transportation of containers from the port to our facility. This reduces the overall logistics costs, making the transportation of your aircraft parts like propellers, hydraulic systems, and braking systems more economical. Lower transportation costs mean you can allocate your budget more efficiently, potentially investing in faster or more secure shipping methods if needed. This tax exemption is particularly beneficial in maintaining cost-effective operations, reducing the financial burden associated with moving goods, and ensuring a smoother supply chain process.
State of the Art Infrastructure
Our facility boasts state-of-the-art infrastructure designed to meet the specific needs of aircraft parts storage. This includes advanced pallet racking systems for efficient storage and easy access, block storage for larger items like wing sections and engine nacelles, and temperature-controlled areas to maintain the integrity of sensitive parts such as avionics and composite materials. Such infrastructure ensures that your parts are stored securely and in optimal conditions, reducing the risk of damage or degradation. The modern facilities at OSV FTWZ support efficient inventory management and help in maintaining the high standards required for aircraft parts.

At OSV FTWZ, we pride ourselves on providing excellent customer service. Our dedicated customer relationship management (CRM) team is available 24/7 to assist you with any queries or concerns. Whether you need help with documentation, tracking your shipments of crucial components like engine parts or flight control systems, or resolving an issue, our support team is always ready to provide timely and effective solutions. This constant availability ensures that your operations run smoothly and that any problems are promptly addressed, giving you peace of mind and allowing you to focus on your core business activities.
Advanced Warehouse Management System
Our advanced Warehouse Management System (WMS) ensures that your inventory is managed efficiently and transparently. The system offers real-time tracking of your parts, enabling you to monitor stock levels, manage orders, and streamline your operations. For importers dealing with complex inventories of items like avionics, landing gear, and interior fittings, this high level of visibility helps in reducing errors, optimizing inventory levels, and improving overall operational efficiency. By leveraging our WMS, you can ensure that your supply chain is always operating at peak performance, reducing downtime and enhancing productivity.
In-House CHAs for Rapid Customs Clearance
OSV FTWZ hosts in-house Customs House Agents (CHAs) who facilitate rapid customs clearance for imported parts. This significantly reduces the time required for your goods to clear customs, ensuring faster turnaround times. Quick customs processing means that your parts, such as spare engines, flight control systems, or navigation equipment, can be moved to your desired locations promptly, minimizing delays and improving the efficiency of your supply chain. The presence of in-house CHAs provides a seamless and hassle-free customs clearance process, enhancing the overall speed and reliability of your operations.
