Verified reviews from importers who have shipped with us to Germany.
Third time using this channel for air parcels to Germany and it keeps getting smoother. The cargo cleared Frankfurt customs on day two, no queries, no amendments needed. Our contact flagged a minor weight discrepancy before departure and corrected it quietly — that kind of detail saves headaches. Delivery appointment confirmed 24 hours in advance. Exactly what a repeat shipper needs.
Solid experience shipping household goods to Germany. Booking was straightforward, transit landed within the quoted window, and the DDP terms held — no surprise duty calls from our customer. The only thing I'd flag is that one tracking update went missing for about a day mid-flight, which caused a brief panic. Everything was fine in the end, and support confirmed status quickly when we asked. Would use again.
We tested this lane to Germany with a mid-volume order. The delivery booking matched the promised window. Tracking updates were not excessive, but they came when something important changed. Better coordination than the forwarder we used before. Alles lief planmassig bis zur Zustellung.

Good lane for general dry cargo. Pickup from our Shenzhen supplier was arranged the same afternoon we confirmed the booking, which impressed us. Customs at destination was clean and fast. Communication from the team was professional throughout. A small labelling issue on two cartons was caught at origin and sorted before export — proactive catch that we appreciated.

The pricing is fair and the process is straightforward. Took a bit longer than estimated but no damage to goods.
Historical freight rates from China to Germany for 100 KG shipments. Data sourced from live carrier price feeds.
Key China-to-Germany import facts buyers should plan around:
| Main sea gateways | Hamburg, Bremerhaven, Wilhelmshaven |
|---|---|
| Destination customs authority | German Customs (Zoll) |
| De-minimis / duty-free threshold | EUR 150 (duty-free threshold; VAT from EUR 0) |
| Import tax & duty regime | Import VAT 19%; duty 0–12% by TARIC code |
| Local currency | EUR |
| Typical port/airport dwell time | 3–6 days |
| Peak / busy season | Sep–Nov |
| Conformity & certification | CE marking + EU IOSS registration for B2C e-commerce |
| Main air gateways | FRA (Frankfurt), MUC (Munich), CGN (Cologne) |
Thresholds and duty bands are buyer-planning references, not formal customs rulings — confirm the exact HS-code rate for your goods before shipping.
At 100 KG, you're in the commercial freight category — large enough for competitive rates but still within the range where air freight often beats sea freight on cost per delivery cycle. This weight is common for electronics, clothing, and general merchandise restocking shipments going to Germany.
| Method | Transit Time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Air Freight DDP | 5–10 business days | From China warehouse to Germany door |
| Sea Freight LCL | 30–50 calendar days | Shared container to Germany port + delivery |
| Rail Freight DDP | 18–28 calendar days | Train via Central Asia to Germany |
| Express Courier | 3–7 business days | DHL/FedEx/UPS door-to-door, high cost for this weight |
Current rates for shipping from China to Germany start at USD 1.88/KG via Sea DDP. For 100 KG, the estimated total is approximately USD 188, with all duties paid under DDP. Final landed cost depends on the Import VAT 19%; duty 0–12% by TARIC code applied by German Customs (Zoll).
Imports into Germany are assessed by German Customs (Zoll). The applicable regime is: Import VAT 19%; duty 0–12% by TARIC code. The duty-free / de-minimis position is EUR 150 (duty-free threshold; VAT from EUR 0). Under our DDP service these charges are pre-paid and included in the per-KG price, so there is nothing to settle on arrival.
DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) to Germany means one all-inclusive price covering freight, the duty/tax due to German Customs (Zoll), and last-mile delivery to your door. The EUR 150 (duty-free threshold; VAT from EUR 0) de-minimis position is handled for you, and there are no surprise charges at destination.
Yes. Air shipments to Germany get an air waybill (AWB) trackable within 24 hours of departure; sea shipments are tracked by bill-of-lading through the carrier portal. We push status at key milestones: departure, arrival at the gateway, clearance by German Customs (Zoll), and final delivery.
Door-to-door transit to Germany: air freight 5–10 business days, sea LCL 30–50 days, sea FCL 28–45 days, and rail 18–28 days. On arrival, allow roughly 3–6 days of clearance/dwell at the gateway. All times include customs clearance under DDP.
We compare actual gross weight against volumetric weight (L×W×H ÷ 6000 for air) and charge whichever is greater, rounded up to the next kilogram. For 100 KG this matters most when cargo is light but bulky — consolidating cartons can drop you into a cheaper bracket.
German Customs (Zoll) 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 + EU IOSS registration for B2C e-commerce). Under DDP we prepare and file these for you.
For regulated goods entering Germany, plan for: CE marking + EU IOSS registration for B2C e-commerce. Missing conformity paperwork is the most common cause of clearance holds with German Customs (Zoll), so confirm requirements for your HS code before the cargo leaves China.
