Because electronic cigarettes contain batteries, and batteries are prone to generate flammable gases during international transportation, which threatens the safety of aircraft. In order to ensure the safety of aircraft transportation, domestic express companies regard batteries and battery items as prohibited items and prohibit transportation.
However, if you can transit from Hong Kong and take advantage of Hong Kong's looser policies, you can delivery electronic cigarettes to foreign countries. For example, logistics such as Dutch post parcels, Russian special lines, Japan special lines, and American special lines, which are transshipped from Hong Kong to the destination, can be delivery to foreign countries. Commercial couriers such as DHL, Fedex, and UPS are prohibited from transporting electronic cigarettes and other electrical items.
In addition, it should be noted that some countries do not allow the import of electronic cigarettes. When delivery, you need to pay attention to whether the electronic cigarettes comply with local customs policies. For example, according to Japanese customs policy, only two electronic cigarettes can be imported at most, and if the number is too large, it will be request to return the parcel.

According to the "Blue Book of Electronic Cigarette Industry Exports in 2022" (hereinafter referred to as "Blue Book"), there are currently more than 1,500 electronic cigarette manufacturing and brand enterprises in my country, and more than 70% of them mainly export their products overseas. It is estimated that the total export value of electronic cigarettes will reach 186.7 billion RMB in 2022, with an expected growth rate of 35%.
After the "Thousand-Smoke War", there is a saying in the electronic cigarette industry: "More than 95% of the world's electronic cigarette production and products are from China, 70% of China is from Shenzhen, and more than 95% of Shenzhen city Bao'an district ". China is gradually transforming from the world's largest e-cigarette manufacturer to the world's largest exporter of e-cigarette brands.
According to Todropshipping, in Southeast Asia, different from the Chinese market, some countries in Southeast Asia are open to e-cigarettes and even allow e-cigarettes to be sold online. According to data from Euromonitor, a consumer market research organization, it is expected that the total market of electronic atomization in Southeast Asia will reach 766 million US dollars in 2023, or about 5.1 billion RMB.
1. The market demand of products should be large
This is the basic principle. Long tail products are not suitable for overseas warehouses、 because it will affect the conversion rate and produce life and death inventory. However、 the size of the market is reasonable、 and the seller needs to evaluate according to the capital situation and turnover rate.
2. Focus on the total profit per unit time rather than the profit of a single transaction
In general、 the profit margin of overseas warehouse of most products will be much higher than that of domestic shipment、 which is also the advantage of overseas warehouse.
Is it true that the profits of overseas warehouses are not as good as those of products shipped domestically、 so they must not be overseas warehouses? In fact、 it is not because we also need to comprehensively consider the conversion rate of overseas warehouse、 because products with high conversion rate can also achieve higher total profits through overseas warehouse!
This requires our sellers to look at overseas warehouses from a developmental and overall perspective.
For example、 if the profit margin of a product shipped from China is 20% and that of an overseas warehouse is 10%、 but the conversion rate of an overseas warehouse is 6 times that of a Chinese shipment、 the total profit obtained in the same time period is 3 times that of a Chinese shipment. Therefore、 we should not only look at the profit rate、 but also calculate the overall cost and benefit.
What is warehousing consignment:
Consignment means that e-commerce cooperates with third-party fulfillment and logistics companies、 signs relevant contracts、 places its own goods in third-party warehouses、 or the purchased goods are directly delivered to third-party warehouses by the supplier、 the system provided by the third party matches the domestic waybill number with the international waybill number、 e-commerce makes item remarks in the system remarks column、 and the third party checks and verifies that there is no error The third-party warehousing company will help the e-commerce to handle the delivery、 packaging and delivery of goods. If the delivered goods are delivered in large batches、 in multiple days and batches、 it is necessary to put the goods on shelves in the system and the warehouse location、 place the goods in the corresponding warehouse location、 and ensure the consistency of product names and quantities. The customer only needs to place an order directly in the system next time、 set an inventory alert、 and replenish the inventory in a timely manner. This is warehousing.
Many people separate fulfillment from consignment. In fact、 in my opinion、 this is just one thing. It saves e-commerce from spending a lot of manpower、 material resources and energy on warehouse and operation、 and also improves the professionalism of operation. It also eliminates the need to send goods to e-commerce first、 then to e-commerce and then to logistics providers. It also greatly improves the timeliness、 while ensuring the speed and quality of logistics services.
