FAQ

 

 

Q: Can you ship directly from multiple China suppliers to one Amazon FBA shipment?

A: Yes. We can coordinate supplier pickups from different locations and consolidate cargo when the shipment arrangement allows. This can help sellers combine inventory before export instead of managing separate international shipments.

Q: What charges should I expect besides the ocean freight rate?

A: The final cost may include origin pickup, export handling, ocean freight, customs-related charges, destination handling and FBA delivery. Any applicable duties, storage, inspection or special-handling charges should be confirmed based on the shipment details.

Q: Can you handle Amazon FBA shipments during peak sales seasons?

A: Yes. Peak-season planning should be arranged in advance because vessel capacity, US port congestion, customs processing and Amazon receiving capacity can affect delivery schedules. We can review the required arrival date and recommend a suitable shipping plan.

Q: Can you ship oversized or heavy FBA cartons?

A: Yes, subject to the cargo characteristics and the receiving requirements of the destination FBA facility. Provide carton dimensions, weight and quantity before booking so the transportation and delivery method can be evaluated.

Q: What happens if US Customs selects my shipment for inspection?

A: We coordinate the required customs procedures and inspection support. Additional inspection, storage, examination or other government-related charges may apply depending on the shipment and inspection outcome.

Q: Can I use my own customs broker or importer of record?

A: Yes, where the selected shipping arrangement supports it. Sellers using their own US importing entity can provide their customs and entry information for coordination with the shipment.

Q: Can you deliver to Amazon AWD or a US 3PL instead of an FBA warehouse?

A: Yes. Delivery can be arranged to an agreed US warehouse, 3PL or other destination when the service and cargo requirements are confirmed before shipment.

Q: What should I do if Amazon changes the receiving warehouse after booking?

A: Provide the updated destination information as soon as possible. We can review the impact on customs, inland transportation and delivery arrangements before making the necessary adjustment.

Q: How early should I book an FBA ocean shipment?

A: For regular replenishment, booking several weeks before the required FBA arrival date is recommended. Peak seasons and time-sensitive inventory should be planned earlier to allow for vessel schedules, customs and Amazon receiving variables.

Q: What information do you need to recommend the right FBA ocean service?

A: Provide the supplier location, product type, carton quantity and dimensions, gross weight, destination warehouse, expected arrival date and any available HS Code or compliance information. We can then assess the appropriate routing and delivery arrangement.
