It is necessary for sellers of AliExpress to choose overseas warehouse. Why do you say so?

From the perspective of the markets covered by the AliExpress platform、 Russia and Brazil are the main markets for orders. About 60% of the overall order volume of the seller comes from Russia、 and 25% - 30% comes from Brazil or South America、 which happens to be the most difficult regions for customs clearance in South America.

Why choose overseas warehouse?

1. Overseas warehouse sellers can solve the problem of customs clearance of goods. Since it usually takes about a month to arrive in Russia by land transportation from China to Russia、 and also goes through strict customs inspection、 the logistics time is longer. Once the goods have problems、 the loss is not small.

2. Solve the problem of logistics timeliness. Some regions in Russia can achieve the same day or the next day、 which is totally different.

The seller should not want to save costs through overseas warehouse. The seller can sell several dollars more through overseas warehouse、 which is acceptable to customers. Instead、 the seller can achieve higher profits through overseas warehouse.

In addition、 the seller should be informed that the cost of domestic delivery and logistics may reach 500 yuan of freight、 while the cost and freight of 100 yuan of overseas warehouse will be saved a lot.

Therefore、 if the seller of AliExpress has the ability、 he must choose an overseas warehouse to deliver goods、 which can solve many problems for the seller

If the goods mailed do not exceed the 1000 limit、 there is no tariff. If the value of the goods mailed exceeds the tax exemption amount、 it may be necessary to pay tariffs for the goods. The current tariffs for cosmetics are 10% - 20%. The tariff is the excess part of the tariff、 that is、 the tariff is calculated based on the total amount of the excess tax exemption. The limit for items sent by individuals from or to Hong Kong、 Macao and Taiwan is 800 yuan each time; The limit for goods sent from or to other countries and regions is 1000 yuan each time.

First of all、 we need to know two concepts: billing weight unit、 first weight and additional weight

Billing weight unit: The international express industry generally takes 0.5KG (0.5kg) as a billing weight unit.

First weight and additional weight: the first 0.5KG is the first weight for international express delivery、 and every additional 0.5KG is an additional weight. Generally、 the cost of hoisting is higher than that of continuous hoisting.

There is one price between 0.5KG and 0.5KG、 which is the first weight price. The part exceeding 0.5KG will be charged according to the additional weight price

Therefore、 the actual freight is equal to the first weight price+additional weight price

When the actual weight of the goods to be delivered is greater than the volume weight、 the freight=first weight freight+(actual weight (kg) × 2－1) × Renewal freight

When the actual weight of the delivered goods is small but the volume is large、 the freight=the first freight+(volume weight (kg) × 2－1) × Renewal freight

Note that the freight here is only the basic freight、 not the final total cost、 and there may be other additional costs.

Packaging fee: Generally、 international express companies provide free packaging、 cartons、 bubbles and other packaging materials、 but many items、 such as clothing、 can be packaged without extra fine packaging、 but some express companies will charge a certain packaging fee for valuable and fragile items. Packaging costs are generally not included in the discount calculation.

Fuel surcharge: all major international express will be updated in real time according to market conditions. Please consult customer service for specific fees.

Other uncertain expenses: such as service fees in remote areas、 sensitive freight charges for sending batteries、 powders、 liquids、 food、 brands、 etc.、 which are mainly related to the items and regions you send.

Basically、 total cost=(freight+fuel surcharge) × Discount+packaging cost+other uncertain costs

In addition、 different countries and different logistics channels have different basic charging standards、 and the cost may also be affected by many factors such as flight outage. The specific charging standards can also be subject to the real-time quotation of the express company.

The basic process is as follows: accepting consignments from cargo owners - chartering and booking space - packing and port collection - customs declaration - making bills of lading - sending bills of lading and writing off tax refund documents.

1、 Accept entrustment

After receiving the entrustment from the owner of the goods、 the following aspects shall be confirmed first、 including the filing (annual review) of the unit at the customs at the place of export; Whether the customs declaration documents are complete (the full set of customs declaration documents include the entrusted customs declaration agreement、 export goods declaration form、 packing list、 invoice、 contract、 export collection verification sheet and various certificates involved in customs supervision conditions); Whether various certificates required in the customs supervision conditions are complete; What kind of container is used for the goods; Whether there are special requirements.

2、 Book space

According to the requirements of the shipping power of attorney of the cargo owner、 confirm the shipping space (obtain the ship name、 voyage number and bill of lading number)、 the packing point、 the time and place of the port collection with the shipping company.

3、 Container concentration port

1. Packing at the place of origin: the shipping company shall、 according to the requirements of the cargo owner、 transport the empty containers to the shipper's warehouse or factory、 and then directly transport the containers to the container yard or the direct gathering port after the cargo is packed.

2. Factory delivery: the factory or shipper shall ship the goods to the container transfer station designated by the shipping company、 and the transfer station shall be responsible for loading the goods into containers in turn. When necessary、 the shipper shall go to the packing site to check the loading conditions and prevent short shipment or wrong shipment.

4、 Customs declaration

5、 Make bill of lading

The bill of lading shall be printed according to the relevant contents of the manifest and ocean waybill、 and the contents of the bill of lading shall be faxed to the principal for confirmation before the formal bill of lading is printed.

6、 Send bills of lading and tax refund documents after verification

After confirming that the goods have been loaded and shipped、 the full set of bills of lading shall be sent to the principal as soon as possible so that the principal has sufficient time to handle the foreign exchange settlement procedures. After the customs release、 the customs declaration form for export tax refund and verification form stamped by the customs shall be sent to the client as soon as possible.
