Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to ship from China to Germany?
Current rates for shipping from China to Germany start at USD 1.41/KG via Sea DDP. For 300 KG, the estimated total is approximately USD 423. Rates vary by transport mode (Air and Rail and Sea available) and cargo type. DDP pricing means all duties and taxes are included.
How long does shipping from China to Germany take?
Transit times from China to Germany depend on the freight method chosen. Air freight typically takes 5–10 business days door-to-door. Sea freight LCL takes 30–50 calendar days, and FCL takes 28–45 days. Rail freight (where available) takes 18–28 days. All times include customs clearance under our DDP service.
What is DDP shipping to Germany?
DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) means you pay one all-inclusive price — freight, customs duties, import taxes, and last-mile delivery to your door in Germany. There are no surprise charges at destination. Our DDP service handles all paperwork and customs clearance on your behalf.
Should I use FCL or LCL sea freight for 300 KG to Germany?
For 300 KG to Germany, LCL (shared container) sea freight is typically the right choice unless your cargo exceeds 5–6 CBM or you're shipping regularly. FCL (full 20-foot container) becomes economical above approximately 15,000–18,000 KG. Our team can calculate which option gives you the best rate for your specific cargo dimensions.
What documents are required for customs clearance in Germany?
For customs clearance in Germany, you typically need: (1) Commercial Invoice showing buyer, seller, HS codes, and declared value; (2) Packing List with dimensions and weights; (3) Bill of Lading or Airway Bill; (4) Certificate of Origin (may qualify for preferential duty rates); (5) Any product-specific certifications. Under our DDP service, we handle all customs documentation.
How do I pay for shipping from China to Germany?
Freight charges are quoted and invoiced in USD. Payment is typically required before shipment departure. We accept bank transfer (T/T), PayPal, and other methods on a case-by-case basis. DDP means you pay the full landed cost upfront — no additional charges at destination in Germany.
Can I track my shipment from China to Germany?
Yes — all shipments include tracking. Air freight shipments receive an airway bill number (AWB) for real-time airline tracking within 24 hours of departure. Sea freight shipments are trackable via the bill of lading number through the carrier's portal. We provide status updates at key milestones: departure, port of entry, customs clearance, and delivery.
What is the minimum shipment size for shipping to Germany?
Minimum shipment sizes vary by channel: Air freight DDP channels typically accept from 21 KG (some from 12 KG). Sea freight LCL is usually priced from 1 CBM. Express courier (DHL/FedEx/UPS) handles single parcels. For shipments below 21 KG, express courier services are available. Contact us to confirm the best option for your specific cargo.
