We are proud to be the bridge that bonds families from Australia to the Philippines. Our sea freight service offers reliable and affordable shipping for your balikbayan boxes.
We recognize your chief concerns when shipping abroad — durability, size options, strength, and rigidity. Our boxes are also proudly Australian made, combining local craftsmanship with global reach to bring you the best quality.
The trustworthy choice; our traditional balikbayan box size fits your practical needs and comes with extra strength to endure the journey.
Go large and secure with our Premium Box, designed with enhanced strength, especially at the bottom, thanks to the full folding flaps.
We ship weekly so fill up your box now
Forex ships more frequently, than any other Filipino Door-to-Door Company.
Note: To be fair to all our customers, Forex Boxes are loaded into our containers on a ‘first come-first in’ basis. When a box comes into our warehouse after the current scheduled container is full, subsequent boxes will automatically be loaded into the next scheduled container, again in a ‘first come, first-in’ basis.

Note: There are no longer any available vessels traveling directly to Manila from Australia as previously. All vessels now pass through other ports before going to Manila which adds approximately 7-14 extra days to the previous transit time (ex. Transit to Manila port may be 3 -4 weeks, where previously was approx. 2 weeks).
At Forex, we are committed to offering the best service available and continue to produce innovative products for overseas Filipino communities worldwide.
"Hi Forex World, I would just like to thank your staff for the prompt and efficient dispatch of my 4 balikbayan boxes; they arrived and got delivered in Manila on time and in excellent condition. Could you deliver 2 more regular boxes to my address please? I plan to dispatch them in the next 2 months… Mabuhay! "
