FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does shipping from China to France take?
Transit times vary by mode: Air freight takes 3-5 days to Paris CDG and 4-6 days to Lyon or Marseille. Ocean FCL takes 28-32 days to Le Havre and 30-35 days to Marseille/Fos-sur-Mer. Ocean LCL adds 7-10 days for consolidation. Express air delivers in 2-3 days. Add 2-4 business days for EU customs clearance and French domestic delivery.
Air freight: $4.00-$8.50 per kg. Ocean FCL 20′: $2,200-$5,500 (Shanghai to Le Havre). Ocean FCL 40′: $3,000-$7,500. Ocean LCL: $45-$80 per CBM. Amazon FBA air: $5-$7 per kg. Peak season (August-November) rates can be 30-60% higher. All ExFreight quotes include origin charges, freight, and EU destination terminal handling.
All imports into France require an EORI number for EU customs declarations. You need accurate CN/TARIC codes, an EU customs declaration (SAD), and a licensed customs broker. EU anti-dumping duties may apply to certain Chinese goods including steel, ceramics, and solar panels. CE marking is required for regulated products. ExFreight handles all EU customs filings.
China ports: Shanghai Yangshan, Shenzhen Yantian, Ningbo-Zhoushan, Qingdao, Xiamen. French ports: Le Havre, Marseille/Fos-sur-Mer, Dunkirk, Rouen, Bordeaux. Air routes: PVG→CDG, CAN→MRS, PEK→LYS. Le Havre handles 60%+ of France-China ocean trade.
Yes, ExFreight is an Amazon SPN member. We handle factory pickup, export clearance, transit (air 5-7 days or ocean 30-38 days), EU customs with EORI, and direct delivery to any Amazon France fulfillment center. We coordinate FBA appointments and ensure FNSKU compliance. Pallets: EUR standard 800x1200mm.
EU anti-dumping duties are additional tariffs on specific Chinese product categories. They apply on top of regular EU MFN duties. Check the EU TARIC database for your CN codes. ExFreight assesses your total duty exposure and identifies applicable preferential rates or exemptions.
The EU Entry Summary Declaration (ENS) must be submitted to French customs at least 24 hours before vessel arrival at an EU port. Required: shipper, consignee, CN codes, container details, and goods description. Late or incorrect filing causes delays and penalties. ExFreight submits ENS for all ocean freight customers at no extra charge.
Key strategies: consolidate shipments to maximize containers, book off-peak (March-July) for 20-40% savings, use FOB Incoterms, optimize packaging, compare Le Havre vs Marseille routing. ExFreight instant rate comparison shows all options.
