FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)

Air Freight Questions:

Q1: What is the average transit time for Air Freight from China to the USA or Europe?
A: Air freight is the fastest option. Typical transit times are 5-10 business days for door-to-door service, depending on the destination and customs clearance.

Q2: Are there any restrictions on what can be shipped via air freight?
A: Yes. Air cargo has strict regulations on items like batteries, flammable liquids, magnets, and certain chemicals. Please consult with us about your specific products to ensure compliance and avoid delays.

Q3: How is the cost for air freight calculated?
A: Air freight is typically charged per kilogram. However, if your cargo is very low-density , we use a volumetric weight calculation (Length x Width x Height / 6000) and charge based on whichever weight is greater

Q4: What is the average transit time for Air Freight from China to the USA or Europe?
A: Air freight is the fastest option. Typical transit times are 5-10 business days for door-to-door service, depending on the destination and customs clearance.
Q5: Are there any restrictions on what can be shipped via air freight?
A: Yes. Air cargo has strict regulations on items like batteries (lithium-ion/powered), flammable liquids, magnets, and certain chemicals. Please consult with us about your specific products to ensure compliance and avoid delays.
Q6: How is the cost for air freight calculated?
A: Air freight is typically charged per kilogram. However, if your cargo is very low-density (light but bulky), we use a volumetric weight calculation (Length x Width x Height / 5000) and charge based on whichever weight is greater.
Q7: My goods are urgent but heavy. Is there a "best of both worlds" option between Express and standard Air Freight?
A: Yes. We offer Priority Air Freight services. This utilizes commercial airline space for your palletized goods, providing a better cost per kg than express couriers for heavy shipments, while still offering faster transit times than standard air cargo, typically 7-9 days door-to-door.
Q8: Can I ship lithium batteries or products containing them by air?
A: It is highly regulated but possible. Batteries must be UN38.3 certified and packaged according to IATA Dangerous Goods regulations. We can guide you through the required documentation and packaging standards to ensure safe and compliant shipment.

Sea Freight Questions:

Q1: What is the typical transit time for sea freight from Shenzhen to Los Angeles or Rotterdam?
A: For FCL/LCL, typical transit time is approximately 18-25 days to West Coast USA and 28-35 days to major European ports. This can vary with weather, port congestion, and carrier schedules.

Q2: What is the difference between FCL and LCL, and how do I choose?
A:FCL (Full Container Load): You rent an entire container. It's more secure, faster (no consolidation delay), and cost-effective for volumes above 15 CBM.
LCL (Less than Container Load): You share a container with other shippers. It's more cost-effective for smaller shipments (below 15 CBM) but has longer transit times due to consolidation and deconsolidation.
Q3: What are the cut-off times for booking sea freight?
A: We have weekly cut-offs, usually 5-7 days before the vessel's estimated departure date (ETD). This allows time for trucking, customs, and port entry. Contact us as early as possible to secure your space.

Q4: What is the difference between a Bill of Lading (BL) and a Sea Waybill (SWB)?
A: A Bill of Lading is a negotiable title of ownership for the goods. It's required for Letter of Credit payments. A Sea Waybill is a non-negotiable receipt, allowing for faster release of cargo at the destination as no original document needs to be presented. We can advise on which is best for your situation.

Q5: What are Demurrage and Detention charges?
A:Demurrage: Fees charged by the port when your container is not moved out of the port/terminal within the allowed free days.
Detention: Fees charged by the carrier when you hold the container outside the port beyond the free time allowed.
We manage the logistics to minimize these risks and provide clear advice on free time allowances.
Q6: Can I pack my own container (FCL) at the factory?
A: Yes, but we strongly recommend following our container loading guidelines to ensure even weight distribution, proper securing, and to avoid damage or customs inspection delays. We can provide a professional loading plan.

DDU & DDP Questions:

Q1: What is the difference between DDP and DDU?
A: This is a critical distinction:

DDP (Delivered Duty Paid): We are responsible for ALL costs and risks, including destination customs clearance, import duties, and taxes. You pay one all-inclusive price, and the goods are delivered to your door "taxes paid." This is our most popular and hassle-free service.
DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid): We deliver the goods to your address, but YOU are responsible for paying all destination import duties and taxes and for handling the import customs clearance yourself (or through your own broker).
Q2: Why should I choose DDP shipping?
A: DDP is the best choice for simplicity. It prevents surprises with unexpected tax bills and complex customs paperwork at your destination. We manage everything, giving you a predictable total cost and a hands-off experience.

Q3: Can you provide a detailed breakdown of the DDP costs?
A: Absolutely. Our DDP quotes are transparent and include the freight cost, all export/import fees, customs brokerage, and an estimated amount for duties and taxes. There are no hidden charges.

Q4: What happens if the actual duties and taxes for my DDP shipment are higher than your estimate?
A: We have extensive experience in calculating these costs and our estimates are highly accurate. In the rare event of a discrepancy, we will absorb the difference for minor overruns. For significant variances due to unforeseen regulatory changes, we will communicate with you transparently before proceeding. Our goal is total cost predictability for you.

Q5: For DDU shipments, what information will you provide to help me with customs clearance?
A: We will provide you with a complete set of shipping documents, including the Bill of Lading, Commercial Invoice, Packing List, and Certificate of Origin (if applicable). This is the essential packet your customs broker will need to clear your goods.

Express & General Questions:

Q1: How do I choose between different express carriers like DHL, UPS, and FedEx?
A: We will advise you based on your specific needs:

DHL: Often fastest for international documents and non-dutiable samples, especially to/from Europe.
FedEx: Strong network and competitive rates for packages to North America.
UPS: Excellent global coverage and reliable service for heavier parcels.
We compare real-time rates and transit times for your specific route to get you the best value.

Q2: My express parcel was returned by customs. What happens now?
A: We will contact you immediately to understand the reason for the rejection (e.g., incorrect paperwork, restricted item). We will help you rectify the issue and reship the parcel. Please note that return freight and reshipment costs may apply.

Q3: Can you combine multiple small packages from different suppliers into one shipment for me?
A: Yes, absolutely. This is a key service we provide, known as consolidation. Your suppliers can send their goods to our warehouse in China. We will receive, inspect, repack, and combine them into a single shipment, saving you significant money on international freight.

Q4: Do you provide warehousing and fulfillment services in China?
A: Yes, we offer short-term storage and fulfillment solutions in our bonded warehouses. This includes receiving your goods from multiple factories, performing quality checks, relabeling, and then shipping them out as a consolidated order upon your instruction.

Q5: How do you handle sensitive or high-value products?
A: For high-value goods, we recommend all-risk insurance and discreet packaging that does not indicate the contents. For sensitive items, we ensure compliance with all regulations and use secure, tamper-evident sealing methods. Please inform us in advance so we can implement the appropriate security measures.

Q6: What is your company's liability if my goods are lost or damaged?
A: Carrier liability is limited by their terms and conditions and is often very low. This is why we strongly urge all clients to purchase full Marine Cargo Insurance. This ensures you are fully compensated for any physical loss or damage, whereas relying on carrier liability alone would result in a minimal payout. We can arrange a comprehensive policy for you.
