Introduction to international express transportation mode

Generally speaking, there are many kinds of goods that individuals mail abroad, such as electronic products, clothes, shoes, common drugs, and other common cross-border trade products. 

Among the numerous cross-border logistics transportation channels, there may be targeted restrictions on the types of goods transported. At the same time, it is also to find a relatively optimal logistics channel for timeliness and freight.

The question I want to share with you today is how Takesendship selects the best transportation channel and recommends it to customers in the face of many cross-border transportation channels.

Fast mail items in international express (UPS, FEDEX, DHL) cannot be mailed together with many kinds of items, because it is difficult to accurately ensure that each item is declared in place when declaring items. 

Therefore, in general, international express will reject packages with messy contents. However, the relatively simple goods with fast requirements for timeliness are very suitable for the transportation of such goods.

The international special package (China-UK special line, China-US special line, France special line, Canada special line, Australia special line, Japan special line, Singapore special line, Netherlands special line, Germany special line, New Zealand special line, etc.) is an international transportation channel with a slightly lower cost and time efficiency than international express, and is generally applicable to point-to-point transportation to a certain country, without transfer, and the plane directly reaches the destination. The types of mailable goods are relatively loose compared with international express. Some special lines also allow the mailing of electronic products with batteries or pure battery products. Please consult Takesendship customer service for details.

International postal service (international postal small package, international postal large package, EMS, etc.), compared with international express service and international special line, has the endorsement of various national postal services, which is the most comprehensive of all transportation channels in terms of mailing range. 

The cost of mailing is also the lowest (some countries and channels do not count). This channel is very suitable for individual cross-border sellers who have low requirements on timeliness, low freight requirements and relatively large quantities of goods.

Maritime transport, which is the lowest cost and slowest time-efficient transport channel of all channels, is usually seen in the transport of bulk goods. 

Because maritime transportation may encounter a series of operations for customs clearance of the same container after the goods arrive at the destination port. Few individual users can accept the transportation time limit and possible customs withholding. Therefore, it is not recommended that any customer use this channel to mail smaller packages.

The above is a general introduction of international cross-border transport channels, hoping to help friends who are seeking to understand cross-border transport. If you need to have an in-depth understanding of various channels, please pay attention to the Takesendship website. We will regularly update the literacy introduction of various channels.
