Frequently Asked Questions
How much does shipping from China to the UK cost?
Prices vary by route and weight. Air - General Goods (1-25 kg): from CNY 62 for the first 0.5 kg, then CNY 40 per additional 0.5 kg, transit 4-8 days. Air - Sensitive Goods: from CNY 73 for the first 0.5 kg, then CNY 46 per additional 0.5 kg. Sea - General: flat CNY 300 for 7-12 kg, CNY 22-25/kg above 12 kg, transit 42-52 days.

Do I need to pay UK customs duty?
No. All JunFeng UK channels include DDP (Delivered Duty Paid), so import duties and VAT are handled within the shipping fee. For a full explanation of DDP, DAP, VAT and customs inspections, see our Customs & Tax Guide.
Can I send cosmetics from China to the UK?
Yes! The sensitive-goods channel supports cosmetics (including liquids up to 1/3 of parcel volume), battery electronics, food, streetwear brands and medicine. Solid cosmetics can go via the general-goods channel. High-value or liquid cosmetics should use the sensitive-goods channel and are recommended for insurance coverage.
How is volumetric weight calculated?
Volumetric weight = L x W x H (cm) /6,000. The greater of actual weight and volumetric weight is used for billing. Example: a 60 x 40 x 50 cm parcel - volumetric weight = 60 x 40 x 50 / 6,000 = 20 kg.
Can I ship large or heavy items?
Yes! Our Large Item Air / Sea channels handle oversized and overweight packages, large furniture, bulky luggage and appliances. A truck delivery surcharge applies for oversized items - contact us for size limits and pricing.
Air freight or sea freight - which should I choose?
Air freight suits urgent or lightweight shipments (4-8 days). Sea freight suits large or heavy non-urgent cargo (42-60 days) at a significantly lower cost. For 7-20 kg, small-parcel sea freight is often best; for 20 kg+, large-item sea freight is the most economical. See our Air vs Sea Shipping Guide for a detailed comparison.
Who is China to UK shipping best suited for?
