Regular Post:
This refers to normal, regular China Post
which can take approximately 6 weeks to ar-
rive. No online tracking is provided and
can be used for parcels under 2kg. Usually,
importer uses the regular post for samples and
again only if time is not that important and
you can wait a few weeks for a package to
arrive. It is not the most reliable system.
Courier:
Shipping with a courier company is the most suitable method for most
importers starting out if it involves small, lightweight items. With courier companies such
as TNT, DHL, UPS or FedEx importer have to pay a premium price for each kilo but
importer gets fast delivery times and an online tracking facility. These days most courier shipments take
normally 3-5 business days to arrive in any Western country from anywhere around the globe.
