✅ How China → India import cargo service works

Here are the main steps and factors:

1. Choose transport mode

  • Sea freight: Best for heavy, bulky or full-container loads (FCL) or consolidated smaller loads (LCL). Example transit times from China to Indian ports: ~14-20 days depending on origin/destination. Bansar China+2presou.com+2

  • Air freight: Faster, but costlier—used for smaller volumes, higher value goods, or urgent shipments. HART Worldwide+1

  • Door-to-door service: Freight forwarder picks up at supplier in China, handles export, shipping, customs, and delivers to your address in India. ilifeimport.com+1

2. Key documentation & compliance

  • You’ll need an IEC (Importer-Exporter Code) to import into India. Bansar China

  • Documents typically include commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading/air waybill, bill of entry (for Indian customs) and potentially licences depending on product. Bansar China

  • Customs classification (HSN/ITC), duties & GST must be understood. Non-compliance causes delays.

3. Ports, transit times & cost considerations

  • Sample transit times: From China’s Shanghai, Shenzhen, Ningbo etc to Indian ports such as Nhava Sheva (Mumbai) or Pipavav: 14-20 days for sea. Bansar China+1

  • Cost reductions via LCL consolidation, careful route selection, and planning for documentation.

  • Hidden costs to watch: demurrage, port handling charges, customs delays, inadequate packaging causing damage.

4. Freight forwarding services / what to look for

  • Choose forwarders that have China + India presence, understand both customs regimes, provide freight + customs + delivery.

  • They should offer clear quotes (freight + duties + delivery) and visibility/tracking.

  • Ask for: pick-up from supplier, consolidation, export clearance in China, sea/air freight, import customs clearance in India, delivery to your warehouse.

  • Reviews matter. For example:

    “I received quotes from other forwarding companies but they kept changing the amounts. Your quote was exact and there were no hidden charges.” cargofromchina.com
