Shipping by sea from China involves several steps. Here’s a brief overview:
Step 1: Collecting Goods from the Supplier
The first step involves collecting the goods from your supplier and transporting them to the warehouse. During this stage, it’s crucial to ensure that the goods are adequately packaged to withstand the rigors of sea transport.
Step 2: Transport to the Port of Origin
Once the goods are ready, they are transported to the port of departure. At this stage, all necessary documents are prepared for export customs.
Step 3: Loading and Shipping
The goods are then loaded onto the ship and transported to the destination port. It’s important to remember that sea freight can take several weeks, depending on the distance and shipping routes.
Step 4: Customs Clearance
Upon arrival at the destination port, the goods must clear customs. This involves paying any applicable duties and taxes and providing all necessary documentation.
Step 5: Delivery to the Final Destination
After clearing customs, the goods are transported to their final destination. This could be a warehouse or directly to the customer’s doorstep.
