Service Overview
Door-to-Door Shipping from Shenzhen, China
International shipping involves more than moving goods from one country to another. Cargo must be collected, properly prepared for export, transported through the international network, cleared through the relevant customs procedures, and delivered to its final destination.
For overseas importers, managing every stage separately can take considerable time. Different service providers may have different requirements, and a delay at one stage can affect the entire shipment.
De-Zong International Logistics offers door-to-door freight forwarding from Shenzhen, coordinating the main stages of transportation through one logistics service provider. Depending on the destination and shipping arrangement, the service may include pickup from your supplier, export handling, international air or ocean freight, customs clearance coordination, and delivery to the consignee's address.
We work with businesses importing from China, including wholesalers, distributors, manufacturers, and e-commerce sellers. Before arranging a shipment, we review the cargo details, delivery address, preferred transit time, and any special handling or customs requirements.
The goal is straightforward: make the shipping process easier to manage, with clearer cost expectations and better communication from pickup to final delivery.

Timing
The transit time for door-to-door freight forwarding depends on the destination, shipping method, cargo readiness, customs procedures, and final delivery arrangements.
As a general planning reference, the following ranges may be considered for common international shipping methods. They are estimates, not guaranteed delivery commitments.
Shipping Method
Indicative Transit Time
Air freight
Approximately 5–12 business days
Ocean freight, FCL or LCL
Approximately 25–45 days
Express courier
Approximately 3–7 business days
These estimates may vary by destination and service type. Door-to-door transit time may include pickup, export handling, customs clearance, and final delivery, so it can be longer than the international flight or ocean voyage alone.
Peak-season congestion, customs inspections, incomplete documentation, and delays at ports or airports may affect the actual delivery date. We recommend confirming the latest route schedule and estimated delivery window before booking.
Pricing
There is no single fixed price for Shenzhen door-to-door freight forwarding because each shipment has different transportation and handling requirements.
The quotation is generally based on the following factors:
Destination: Country, city, postal code, and delivery address.
Cargo details: Product description, weight, dimensions, volume, quantity, and packaging.
Shipping method: Air freight, ocean freight, express courier, or another available service.
Customs requirements: Product classification, declared value, import permits, and applicable duties or taxes.
Additional services: Residential delivery, appointment delivery, special handling, storage, or other destination charges.
Before confirming a booking, please ask for a breakdown of the charges included in the quotation. In particular, confirm whether customs clearance, import duties and taxes, destination handling, and final delivery are included.
A door-to-door service does not automatically mean that all duties and taxes are prepaid. The responsible party and payment arrangements depend on the agreed service scope and applicable Incoterms.
To receive an accurate quotation, please provide your cargo details, pickup location, destination address or postal code, and preferred shipping method if known.

FBA shipments may require specific carton labels, shipment references, delivery appointments, and warehouse compliance. These requirements should be confirmed before dispatch.
8. What happens if customs clearance is delayed?
