Mode Selection
Match air, LCL, 20GP or 40HQ to chargeable weight, packed cube, deadline, and order cadence.
Ocean CIF, DDP & Air Freight
CIF to port or DDP to door,
matched to the shipment
Compare air, LCL, 20GP, and 40HQ, then choose CIF when the buyer controls import clearance or DDP when a confirmed door-delivery scope is required.
Ocean CIF, DDP & Air Freight
International ocean and air freight from China
Air and ocean plans for commercial cargo, oversized products, equipment, and multi-supplier orders, including CIF to a named port and DDP delivery within a confirmed destination scope.
CIF or DDP Scope
Use CIF when the buyer manages import clearance and port pickup; use DDP when clearance, duties, and door delivery are included in the written scope.
Cargo Compatibility
Plan furniture, LED displays, lighting, doors, windows, equipment and mixed cargo by damage profile.
Named Port or Door
Name the CIF destination port precisely, or define the DDP address, customs, appointment, unloading, and delivery boundary.
CIF OR DDP
Port or door depends on who owns the import
Both options move cargo from China. The key difference is who handles destination clearance, duties, and delivery beyond the port.
CIF ocean freight to port
For buyers who can clear imports and want control over destination-port charges and inland delivery.
- We arrange
- China-side export handling, ocean booking, export clearance, freight to the named destination port, and the agreed insurance cover.
- The buyer arranges
- Import clearance, duties and taxes, destination-port charges, cargo collection, and onward delivery.
Under CIF, freight and insurance are arranged to the named destination port, while cargo risk normally transfers once the goods are on board at origin. The quote and contract should name the port and Incoterms® 2020 rule.
DDP ocean freight to door
For buyers who want import clearance, duties, and delivery coordinated within one confirmed service scope.
- We arrange
- Export transport, import clearance, duties and taxes, and delivery to the named address within the written scope.
- The buyer supports
- Accurate cargo and delivery details, on-site receipt, and any unloading work outside the agreed scope.
DDP feasibility depends on the product, destination-country import rules, importer structure, and delivery address, so every shipment is reviewed before confirmation.
