How much does it cost to import from China?

Since the products are already cheaper and have a fixed rate, the transportation charges need attention. The Chinese government has issued a schedule that covers all the expenses of the shipment in transit. The schedule is pretty detailed, explaining every transport charge.

Incoterms schedule details all the charges, including loading/unloading and en-route charges from the warehouse to the port. The charges are the same for all kinds of import methods, whether through personal interaction or online.

Some of these charges have to be paid upfront, while others can be paid after receiving the goods. Therefore, before finalizing any deal, do finalize the shipping charges with all parties.
