How to send a package to China

If you want to send a package to China, you must note that the prices depend on the size and weight of the shipment. There are also differences, depending on how far you send the parcel - of course, sending a parcel within Europe is cheaper than sending one far away.

1. For this reason, sending a normal package weighing up to five kilos to China costs 40 euros by DHL - if it gets heavier, the price increases accordingly. China belongs to zone 4 for the post office - that is, the most distant zone.
2. If you are sending a package to China, you will also need a customs declaration. You have to fill this out, regardless of whether you are sending the package for private or business purposes. The declaration is already included on the parcel label. Enter the type of shipment, content, weight and value there.

3. Of course, you want your parcel to arrive in China - national and international parcels are insured for up to 500 euros for this reason. This means that if the package disappears and you can prove how much the contents were worth (for example by means of an invoice), you will receive the value of the goods back. In this case, the content unfortunately remains gone.
4. When you hand in the package, you will be given a number that you can use to track the package in case of doubt. In this case it is also possible to place an investigation order. Then a further investigation is made into what happened to the package. So if your package does not arrive, the first step is in any case to investigate.
