Excellent DDP air service to Portugal. The parcel left China on day two of booking and was delivered to our Lisbon client within the quoted window. Customs was cleared without any back-and-forth and the landed cost matched the quote exactly. The auto-generated customs receipt was a nice touch for our records. Highly recommend.

Smooth shipping to Porto. This was our first time using this particular channel for Portugal and we were pleasantly surprised. The booking interface is clean, the timeline was realistic, and there were no additional charges on arrival. Only minor note: the tracking page didn't update for about 18 hours when the parcel was in transit, which caused a bit of uncertainty. Final result was good.
