How we ship from Guangzhou
Rail and sea freight from China. By container train via Kazakhstan in 16–35 days, or by sea via Russian ports in 23–55 days. Consignments from different suppliers are consolidated in China; container and groupage rates are quoted on request (there are no fixed rates from China). Urgent cargo goes by air.
Transport hub nearby: the Port of Nansha, close to Shenzhen and Hong Kong. Southern China is, above all, small wholesale consignments from many suppliers, so consolidation is almost always needed here: combining ten shipments into one container is cheaper than sending each one separately. For goods sold on Russian marketplaces, labelling and certification have to be sorted out in advance — these requirements are checked on import, not when the order is placed.
What suppliers in Guangzhou most often ship
Clothing and textiles, footwear, furniture, electronics, household goods and children’s products. We choose the scheme for each type of cargo separately: for light, bulky goods the volume is what matters, for heavy goods it is the weight and the lashing, and for fragile goods the packing and the number of transhipments. If you are not sure which option works out cheaper, send us the dimensions and weights — we will calculate the alternatives and show you the difference.
We classify the goods under the Russian (EAEU) tariff before shipment, while the documents can still be corrected on your side: the code determines the import duty, whether certification is needed and whether the goods fall under any restrictions. The full amount your customer will pay on import — duty, import VAT and fees — is calculated in advance, before the truck leaves.
Sanctions screening first
We handle only goods that are not subject to EU, UK, Swiss or US sanctions. Before we quote, we check the HS codes of your goods and screen your customer and all parties to the shipment. If a product or a party is restricted, we tell you straight away and do not take the shipment.
