Awala-Yalimapo Port Location

UN/LOCODE: GFCCY · French Guiana · South America

Awala-Yalimapo is a coastal locality in western French Guiana, near the Maroni estuary and the Suriname border. The supplied port master data identifies GFCCY at 5.6833333° N, 53.9333333° W. For freight planning, our platform classifies GFCCY as a local coastal port location rather than a confirmed container gateway. The master data records zero FCL, LCL and automotive service entries, so shippers should not assume regular container berthing, terminal handling, customs clearance, warehousing or liner schedules at this location. Our service team normally validates the actual receiving point and routes commercial cargo through an operating gateway in French Guiana or a suitable regional alternative before accepting a booking.

Key Highlights

GFCCY is a location code for Awala-Yalimapo; it should not be treated as proof of a scheduled commercial container terminal.
The coastal and border-area setting makes final-mile access, riverine conditions and local receiving capability important planning variables.
Regular FCL, LCL, vehicle and project-cargo solutions require prior confirmation of the actual port, terminal and consignee delivery point.
Our team recommends gateway validation before quoting freight, storage, customs or inland transport charges.
Any routing, cut-off, equipment and transit information must be confirmed against the selected carrier and operating facility.

Facilities & Services

Container handling: The supplied data does not establish a dedicated container terminal or regular FCL/LCL handling service at GFCCY. Our team verifies the alternative gateway before booking.
Breakbulk and project cargo: Oversized, heavy or non-containerised shipments require a site-specific review covering landing arrangements, lifting equipment, road access and local permissions.
Warehousing and empty equipment: Do not assume bonded storage, container depots, reefer plugs or empty-container release in Awala-Yalimapo; these are confirmed case by case.
Customs and inspection: Customs formalities may need to be completed at the designated commercial gateway or an approved inland/customs location rather than at the GFCCY locality.
Inland connectivity: Road access and any river or local craft leg must be checked for vehicle size, weather, seasonal water conditions, cargo security and delivery-site limitations.

Routes & Transit Times

For international container cargo, our service team normally evaluates routing through an operating French Guianese gateway or a regional hub, followed by road, riverine or multimodal delivery where feasible.
Potential trade direction, transshipment point, sailing frequency and equipment availability depend on the selected carrier and the confirmed gateway; GFCCY itself does not establish direct-service coverage.
Transit time is affected by transshipment connection, customs release, border procedures with Suriname, road conditions, river levels, weather and the final receiving point.
We provide a firm schedule only after receiving the commodity, Incoterm, package dimensions, cargo readiness date, consignee location and confirmed terminal acceptance.

Hinterland & Key Cargo

The immediate service area is the remote western coastal zone of French Guiana, including local communities around Awala-Yalimapo; practical cargo reach depends on the final address and transport mode.
Typical demand for a remote locality may include community supplies, food and consumer goods, construction materials, public-service equipment and small commercial consignments. The final cargo profile must be confirmed with the consignee.
Border proximity can create additional document, customs and handover considerations for shipments connected with Suriname; routing through the border is not presumed to be available for every cargo type.
For industrial, mining, refrigerated, dangerous or oversized cargo, our team performs a separate feasibility review rather than applying standard gateway assumptions.

Operations & Compliance

Booking and cut-offs: GFCCY-specific terminal cut-off, receiving window and equipment release should not be assumed. The carrier or confirmed gateway must issue the operative deadlines.
Documents: Commercial invoice, packing list, transport document, customs data, consignee identification and any required permits should be aligned before cargo dispatch. Description, HS classification, value and origin must be consistent.
Dangerous goods: A complete dangerous-goods declaration, UN number, proper shipping name, packing group, package details and carrier approval may be required. Do not send regulated cargo before acceptance is confirmed.
Inspection and delivery: Customs examination, agricultural controls, security checks and local delivery restrictions can add handling time. Our team confirms who bears examination, storage, demurrage and re-delivery costs under the agreed Incoterm.

Shipping Tips

Send the exact delivery address, contact person, cargo dimensions, gross weight, packaging type, commodity and readiness date before requesting a GFCCY quotation.
Ask our service team to confirm the actual gateway, terminal acceptance, customs location, inland route, equipment type and any river or border handover before cargo is packed or dispatched.
For small consignments, compare consolidated cargo with a gateway-based LCL solution; for remote delivery, obtain a separate quotation for final-mile handling and possible transloading.
Use robust, moisture-resistant packaging and clear piece marks for remote or multimodal delivery. Reefer, fragile, high-value and oversized cargo needs written feasibility confirmation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I book a standard FCL shipment directly to GFCCY?: Not on the basis of the location code alone. Our team first confirms an operating commercial gateway, carrier acceptance and the onward delivery method to Awala-Yalimapo.
Does GFCCY have a published container terminal cut-off?: A terminal cut-off should not be inferred from GFCCY. The applicable closing time comes from the selected carrier and confirmed terminal, and may differ by equipment and commodity.
Can LCL cargo be delivered to Awala-Yalimapo?: It may be possible through a gateway-based consolidation service, subject to deconsolidation, customs release, inland feasibility and consignee receiving capability. Our team confirms the complete route before quoting.
What information is needed for a reliable quotation?: Provide the commodity, HS code if available, packages, dimensions, gross weight, value, origin, Incoterm, cargo-ready date and exact consignee address. Dangerous or oversized cargo requires additional details.
Will customs clearance be completed in Awala-Yalimapo?: Not automatically. The clearance point depends on the approved routing and customs arrangement. Our team confirms the responsible customs location and required documents before shipment.

Data Sources & Provenance

The port code, name, country, locality, coordinates and recorded FCL/LCL/automotive counters in this module are taken from the supplied GFCCY port master data. No unverified berth, draft, throughput, terminal, carrier, sailing frequency, tariff or transit-time figure has been added.

For customs and regulatory validation, our service team refers to the competent French authorities, including douane.gouv.fr and guyane.gouv.fr. These domains support regulatory and administrative verification; they do not by themselves confirm a commercial terminal or scheduled service at GFCCY.

Operational details remain subject to written confirmation from the selected carrier, gateway operator, customs authority, inland provider and consignee.
