F
BA is delivered from Amazon warehouse, but this FBA starts from the delivery of goods to Amazon warehouse, and Amazon will not be responsible for the transportation from China to Amazon warehouse abroad, so you need to consider FBA first.
Amazon is not responsible for customs clearance and delivery of goods from China to Amazon warehouse. FBA's first-hand service refers to the delivery of goods from China to Amazon's warehouse, and there are special services to meet this demand. For example, there are export services in South China and East China. FBA head office, there should be three delivery methods in the market:
1, direct delivery; DHL, UPS, Fedex, etc. Generally more than 20kg, the price is good, the time limit is fast, and it is suitable for emergency replenishment. Moreover, express delivery is appointment-free, but it should be noted that Amazon is not the subject of customs clearance and is not responsible for customs clearance and tax payment. It is necessary to make preparations in advance to declare and prepay customs duties and local customs clearance importers. General export trade can provide tax number borrowing.
2.FBA sea voyage: sea voyage+local customs clearance in destination country+delivery, with a slightly longer time limit. The whole price is almost 1000, excluding tax. If America and Britain are cheap, Canada is more expensive. This kind of delivery time limit is relatively long, usually more than one month. At that time, it was sent to Amazon by trailer, which generally required storage reservation, and the operation was more troublesome than express delivery. But the price is cheap. If calculated according to 1CBM= 167kg, it is a few dollars 1kg, which is cheaper than the express delivery of more than 30 yuan 1kg. 10 case of 20kg goods, the express delivery cost is about 6000, but the freight is estimated to be less than 2000, but the time limit is longer, which is suitable for non-urgent replenishment. Easy export can solve customs clearance and full service.
3, overseas warehouse allocation: put the goods in the export easy overseas warehouse, one can do Amazon FBA, and the other can be sold from overseas warehouses of other platforms. There are many options for allocating overseas warehouses to Amazon. You can choose express delivery without reservation, or choose trailer delivery. The method is flexible and simple, and can be supplemented for many times, and the replenishment time is also short. Moreover, the customs clearance problem has been solved before the goods arrive at the warehouse, and there is no big problem in sending them from the warehouse to Amazon later. In particular, Amazon will raise the price of FBA next year and try other platforms, such as self-built platform, wish, and many new platforms.
