Read on to learn how AIT can help your government agency, public company or private firm navigate the complex global logistics landscape, including international government shipping.

What is OCONUS shipping versus CONUS shipping?

OCONUS is shorthand for “outside the continental United States,” and refers to transportation logistics and shipping services outside the continental United States.

Conversely, CONUS drops the O for “outside” and refers to shipments with a point of origin and destination within the continental United States (i.e., the 49 states, including Alaska and the District of Columbia and excluding Hawaii, on the North American continent).
