  I often have friends who need to send things from China to Germany, but I am not very familiar with what to pay attention to when sending things from China to Germany. Below, I will introduce various mailing precautions for sending things from China to Germany.

First, it is important to distinguish which category your product belongs to, such as food, liquid, paste, powder, charged products, etc., which are all sensitive products. Clothing and shoes are ordinary products, and different types of products have different shipping channels. You can consult relevant shipping companies or agency companies for this.

We mainly consider price, timeliness, and safety when sending packages to Germany. If the timeliness channel is set, the same channel has similar timeliness, and the price difference is significant. If you look for an official website or a logistics forwarding company, there is a significant difference in reliability. It is more reliable to find a company that has been working for at least 3 years.

1. About Price

I suggest you find a forwarding or agency company. If you directly contact official channels such as DHLUPSFEXDE, it is very expensive. Through forwarding or agency companies, you can get very low discounts. For example, the Royal Logistics company I have been using, their prices are only 3-5% off the official published prices, and there are other companies that you can also refer to.

2. Check the tracking number of logistics express delivery from China to Germany

If the international courier company you choose is China Post, you can check through the postal official

If DHL, go to the DHL official website to search, and so on

Here is a very comprehensive website for tracking tracking tracking information of almost all transportation channels: 17track.net

3. Customs duties

After the package arrives in Germany, it will undergo spot checks, but the probability of being picked up is very low. If you are worried about being taxed, you can ask the logistics company or forwarding company you are looking for to reasonably and legally reduce the declared value of the goods, even if it is spot checked, it will not be taxed. Also, the quantity of the same item should not be too large. For example, if you have 100 identical phone cases sent to Germany, it may be considered as goods and subject to taxation. If your customer feedback has not been received for a long time, then you need to check the tracking information of the package logistics. If it is taxed, then you need to consider paying taxes. Here's a note: Before sending, be sure to consult with the forwarding and logistics companies you are looking for, and ask if your item will be taxed based on its situation, as they are more familiar with this than you. However, if you directly contact the postal service, they will not consider tax avoidance for you, which increases the probability of being taxed.

4. How many days does it take to send the package from China to Germany?

This different channel has different time limits. It should be noted that the time limit is very simple. Directly input the weight and destination country, and the time limit is automatically calculated, which is basically reliable. If there are problems with a few packages, they may be delayed.

In addition, generally speaking, there is no need for remote surcharges to be sent from China to places such as Hamburg, Munich, Cologne, Frankfurt, Stuttgart, Bremen, Dresden, etc. For specific information, please consult Rocket Logistics
