How shipping is calculated
The box matters as much as the scale.
Light but bulky parcels take up aircraft or vehicle space. That is why route pricing can use volumetric weight instead of actual weight.
Common planning exampleLength × width × height ÷ 8,000= volumetric weight (kg) · the imported route may use a different divisor
Actual weight
What the packed parcel weighs on the warehouse scale.
Volumetric weight
A space-based calculation using the outer carton dimensions.
Chargeable weight
The route's pricing weight, usually the higher applicable value.
Product eligibility
Different products need different routes.
Share the exact product link. A picture or category name alone may miss batteries, liquids, magnets, materials or brand restrictions.
Clothing, homeware, accessories
Often eligible for standard routes after dimensions and product details are checked.
Electronics & batteries
Battery type, power rating and packaging can determine whether a route accepts the item.
Cosmetics, liquids & powders
Ingredients, volume and destination rules can limit the available routes.
Branded or sensitive goods
Trademark, material, customs and route policies must be reviewed before quoting.

Shipping FAQ
Answers before you dispatch.
These are the details that most often change a China-to-global shipping estimate.
Ask about a product →01Why can the final shipping cost change?
The estimator uses the details you enter. The final cost uses packed warehouse weight and dimensions, destination postcode, product category and the available route on the day of dispatch.
02What is chargeable weight?
It is the weight used for pricing. It is normally the greater of actual weight and volumetric weight, although some destinations or routes apply special thresholds.
03Does consolidation always save money?
Not always. Combining parcels can reduce repeated per-parcel charges, but a larger box can increase volumetric weight. We compare the packed result before confirmation.
04Can batteries, cosmetics or branded goods ship?
They need a manual eligibility check. Some routes accept them with restrictions; other routes may refuse them. The calculator does not pretend a general-goods rate applies.
05Are duties and taxes included?
No. Import duties, taxes, customs handling and destination fees depend on local rules and shipment details unless a verified quote explicitly says otherwise.
06Are transit times guaranteed?
No. The displayed range is a reference, not a delivery promise. Customs, peak seasons, weather and destination handling can add time.
