How to use these numbers

Freight, duty and fee figures here are planning estimates built from published 2026 rate ranges. Real quotes depend on the greater of actual and volumetric weight, the specific line you choose, seasonal capacity and the declared value on the customs form. Use the estimates to compare options and to sanity-check an agent's quote — not as a contractual figure.

Recommended order of operations

  1. Pick the item and note its price in CNY.
  2. Run the fee comparator to see the service-fee spread across agents.
  3. Estimate packed dimensions, then run the volumetric calculator.
  4. Feed that chargeable weight into the shipping calculator for your route.
  5. Add the duty estimate for your destination, then compare agents on the total.

Tools — questions

Are these calculators accurate?▼
They are planning estimates using published 2026 rate ranges, not quotations. Freight is billed on the greater of actual and volumetric weight by your chosen line, and duty depends on the HS classification and destination rules. Always confirm the final figure on the agent’s checkout.
How is volumetric weight calculated?▼
Length × width × height in centimetres divided by 6000 for most air express lines, or divided by 5000 for some sea and economy lines. The carrier bills whichever is greater — actual or volumetric weight.
Do I have to pay customs duty in 2026?▼
US-bound parcels generally do: the $800 de minimis exemption has ended, so expect duty plus brokerage. EU and UK imports carry VAT, commonly collected via IOSS. Rates vary by product category and declared value.
Is the currency converter live?▼
No — it uses reference rates from the last review pass so results are reproducible offline. Your card issuer’s rate will differ by 1–3% in either direction.
