FAQ

 

 

Q: What is the typical shipping time for a 40ft container from China to the USA?

A: Shipping time varies by destination. To West Coast ports (e.g., LA/Long Beach), it takes approximately 15-20 days at sea. To East Coast ports (e.g., New York), it takes 25-35 days via the Panama Canal. Door-to-door service adds approximately 5-7 days for inland transportation and handling.

Q: What is the difference between your DDP and DDU service?

A: Under DDP (Delivered Duty Paid), we calculate and pay all duties and taxes on your behalf. Under DDU (Delivered Duty Unpaid), the responsibility for paying these fees falls to you, the importer, upon the goods' arrival in the USA. DDP offers greater convenience and budget certainty.

Q: How do you ensure my goods clear US customs smoothly?

A: Our in-house US customs brokerage team has extensive experience with FDA, DOT, and other agency requirements. We pre-audit your documentation and ensure all filings (like ISF and AMS) are accurate and submitted on time.

Q: What factors can affect the final cost you quote?

A: The final cost depends on the origin city in China, the destination in the USA, current fuel surcharges (BAF), peak season surcharges (PSS), the type of goods (which affects duties), and the chosen shipping speed.

Q: Can you help if my Chinese supplier has no export license?

A: Yes, we can. We offer a comprehensive export agency service where we can act as the exporter of record, obtain the necessary export licenses, and handle all customs formalities on your behalf.

Q: Do you provide cargo insurance?

A: Absolutely. We highly recommend insuring your cargo. We can arrange comprehensive insurance coverage for you, typically at a premium of around 0.3% of the goods' value, to protect against potential damage or loss during transit.
