Freight Transport from Portugal to Latvia: FTL, Groupage & Pallets
Neva Logistics coordinates full truckload (FTL), groupage (LTL) and pallet transport from Lisbon, Porto, Braga, Coimbra, Faro to Riga, Liepāja, Daugavpils, Jelgava, Ventspils. At around 4,300 km this is one of the longest road lanes in the EU, linking the Atlantic coast with the Baltic. Loads from Lisbon, Porto and the northern industrial belt (Braga, Aveiro) run through Spain and France, then across Germany and Poland to Riga via the Via Baltica. Because of the distance, most shippers combine freight on groupage departures; full trucks are planned with a double-driver crew when time matters.

VAT) A full truck takes 7–8 business days from Lisbon to Riga (≈4,270 km); groupage and pallets take 8–10 days. No customs formalities apply, as both countries are in the EU. For example, 1 Euro pallet from Lisbon to Riga starts from €325; 2 pallets from €570; 3 pallets from €755.
