The duty-free / de-minimis position is EUR 150 (duty-free threshold). Under our DDP service these charges are pre-paid and included in the per-KG price, so there is nothing to settle on arrival.
What is DDP shipping to Denmark and what does it include?
DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) to Denmark means one all-inclusive price covering freight, the duty/tax due to the national EU customs authority, and last-mile delivery to your door. The EUR 150 (duty-free threshold) de-minimis position is handled for you, and there are no surprise charges at destination.
What documents are required for customs clearance in Denmark?
the national EU customs authority typically requires: (1) commercial invoice with HS codes and declared value; (2) packing list with weights and dimensions; (3) bill of lading or air waybill; (4) certificate of origin (may lower duty); and (5) any product-specific certification (CE marking + IOSS for low-value B2C parcels). Under DDP we prepare and file these for you.
What is the best way to ship 10 KG from China to Denmark?
For 10 KG to Denmark, Air Freight is recommended — it gives the best speed/cost balance (5–10 business days) at this size, clearing via the main international gateway airport. Sea-freight minimums make ocean uneconomical under ~50 KG.
What is the minimum shipment size for shipping to Denmark?
Minimums to Denmark vary by channel: air DDP from about 21 KG (some from 12 KG), sea LCL from roughly 1 CBM, and express courier for single parcels. Below 21 KG, express is usually the most economical way into Denmark.
When is the busy season for shipping to Denmark?
Capacity to Denmark tightens around Sep–Nov, on top of the China-side surcharge windows of Chinese New Year (Jan/Feb) and Golden Week (early Oct). Booking 1–2 weeks earlier during these windows protects both space and rate.

For regulated goods entering Denmark, plan for: CE marking + IOSS for low-value B2C parcels. Missing conformity paperwork is the most common cause of clearance holds with the national EU customs authority, so confirm requirements for your HS code before the cargo leaves China.
