No customs duties or no clearance fees from China Custom, but there may have import duties from destination country.

Registration fee: 8 yuan each

Fee Calculation

Calculated based on per 10 g rate, the price of small parcels varies from 120 yuan – 180 yuan/kg. Fees are charged on every 10g, for example: items weighed 32g will be charged a fee of 40 g. If the shipping rate is 120 yuan/kg, then the fee would be 5 yuan.

Delivery Time

To China neighboring countries in Asia: 5-10 days, to European countries and USA: 7-15 days, and to other countries and regions: 7-30 days.

Size And Weight Limit

  • The maximum weight for small parcel is 2 kg.
  • Non-cylindrical parcel: length + width + height ≤ 90 cm, each side ≤ 60 cm, length ≥ 14 cm, width ≥ 9 cm.
  • Cylindrical parcel: twice the diameter + length ≤ 104 cm, each side ≤ 90 cm, twice the diameter + length ≥ 17 cm, length ≥ 10 cm.

Disadvantages

The delivery time is usually longer. The normal delivery time to developed countries is about 7-14 days, while for small parcel it might take even longer. Other than that, the sellers need to take into consideration the time taken during transshipment. Goods will usually be shipped to Hong Kong through Shenzhen before sending to the destination country.

High rate of loss: Due to the fact that each country and region’s post office has a different standard of air mail services and the delivery time is long, parcel loss can be a common issue.

Conclusion

Air Mail is suitable for light weight and low value items, such as 3C accessories, fashion accessories, etc.
