DDP Shipping from China, Simplified

DDP, or Delivered Duty Paid, is an Incoterms® rule that defines international shipping responsibilities between buyer and seller. Under DDP terms, the seller is responsible for arranging delivery to the agreed destination, including import customs clearance and applicable duties and taxes. For the buyer, this means less responsibility for managing import procedures and extra destination charges, making DDP a streamlined option for businesses sourcing products from China.

From Pickup to Delivery: Your DDP Shipping Journey

With a DDP shipping solution from China, Airsupply manages the shipment through a single end-to-end logistics process for you.

1. Duties & Taxes Are Arranged in Advance

In a DDP arrangement, freight, duties, and taxes are incorporated into the overall shipping cost. It gives businesses greater visibility into their expected landed costs before shipment.

2. Airsupply Handles Customs Clearance

Airsupply works with all relevant parties to prepare the required shipping and customs documentation for import clearance. Complete and accurate shipment information helps keep the clearance process on track.

3. Final Delivery to Your Door

Once customs clearance is complete and the shipment is released, it continues to the agreed destination. Under the agreed Delivered Duty Paid terms, the consignee generally does not need to arrange or pay applicable import charges upon delivery.

4. A More Predictable Shipping Experience

With shipping costs, duties, and taxes accounted for upfront, buyers can avoid unexpected charges and enjoy a smoother delivery experience. Airsupply helps simplify cross-border delivery and build customer trust through reliable DDP shipping solutions.
