01 / Choosing air freight
When your shipment needs a faster route
Air shipping is worth considering when the timing of stock replenishment, a product launch or an urgent commercial order matters more than the lowest transport cost. The right option depends on the cargo, its readiness date and the final delivery requirements.
Regular business shipments
Include your expected monthly volume and supplier locations to discuss a recurring shipping plan.
Air or express?
For smaller consignments, compare air freight with express shipping from China using the same cargo details and delivery scope. Suitability is assessed for each shipment.
02 / Your quotation
Air freight cost from China to the USA: what affects your quote?
Weight alone is not enough for a reliable quote. Carton dimensions, product characteristics, origin and destination all affect the options available.
Air freight pricing may use chargeable weight based on actual weight or volume. Actual weight is the measured gross weight of the packed cargo; volumetric weight reflects how much space it occupies. This is why a light but bulky shipment may be priced differently from a compact shipment with the same gross weight. Send the dimensions and weight of each packed carton so both can be reviewed. Ask for the chargeable weight, the applicable calculation and any handling charges to be stated in your quotation.

03 / From enquiry to delivery
Agree the plan before your cargo moves
01. Review the shipment
We review the product, packing information, destination and timing requirements you provide.
02. Confirm the scope
Discuss the proposed transport option, estimated timing, included services and any costs that remain outside the quote.
03. Coordinate the next steps
Agree cargo readiness, documentation and delivery arrangements for the selected service.
04 / Documents and delivery
Prepare clear cargo information
Have your commercial invoice and packing information ready for review. Additional documentation or product-specific checks may be needed depending on the goods and import requirements.
Xiangchen Logistics provides customs documentation support and delivery coordination. Confirm the importer’s responsibilities, clearance arrangements, duties and taxes before booking.
Check the full journey
Ask whether the quotation covers supplier pickup, origin handling, air transport, destination handling, clearance support and final delivery. A flight estimate alone is not a door-to-door delivery commitment.
05 / Before you book
Air freight questions
How long does air freight from China to the USA take?
Timing depends on the route, capacity, cargo readiness, documentation, clearance and final delivery. Ask for an estimate for your actual shipment and clarify which stages it covers.
Amazon FBA Shipping: can I request delivery from China to the USA?
For shipping from China to Amazon FBA in the USA or another US warehouse, share the destination address and receiving requirements. Availability and the exact delivery scope are confirmed for your cargo before booking.
Are duties and taxes included?
Do not assume they are included. The quotation should identify the agreed responsibilities and any charges payable separately.
Can I ship batteries, liquids or other special cargo?
Send the exact product details before booking. Acceptance, documentation and handling depend on the product and selected service; a general quote does not confirm acceptance.
