Shipping from China to Spain

Sea Freight Service

Transit time: 30–50 days, depending on origin port, destination port, and route.
Shipping options:
FCL (Full Container Load): entire container for one customer; less handling, faster customs clearance, convenient pickup at destination.
LCL (Less than Container Load): share container space with other shipments; cost-effective for small shipments but may require additional consolidation time.
Benefits: Capable of transporting large, heavy, or bulky cargo. Flexible scheduling is required due to longer transit time.

Air Freight Service

Transit time: 3–8 days
Fastest shipping method, ideal for urgent, high-value, or lightweight goods.
Limitations: Not suitable for bulky items due to weight and volume restrictions.
Direct routes from China to Spain: Shanghai, Beijing, Qingdao, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Hong Kong — major Spanish airports such as Palma de Mallorca, Lanzarote, Gran Canaria.
Notes: Charges based on billable weight; airport-to-airport service increases flexibility.

Rail Freight Service

Transit time: 18–30 days depending on origin and destination, faster than sea freight, half the cost of air freight.
Advantages:
Time-efficient and stable
Cost-effective for medium-sized shipments
Flexible: LCL shipments allowed, minimum charge weight as low as 21kg
One-stop door-to-door service including pickup and delivery
