Frequently asked questions
How long does shipping from China to Australia take?
Published air services are generally around 7-10 business days after departure, while sea services are commonly around 25-30 days. Customs inspections, quarantine and remote delivery can extend these estimates.
Why is the Australian postcode required for a quote?
The postcode determines the delivery city, truck zone, remote-area classification, service availability and possible surcharges.
What is the difference between DDP and DDU shipping to Australia?
DDP rates are arranged with duties and taxes paid by the sender under the selected service terms. DDU rates normally leave import taxes and certain clearance charges to the receiver.
Can you deliver to a private address in Australia?
Yes, for supported postcodes. Residential, remote-area, tail-lift, overweight, oversize and redelivery charges may apply.
