International Cargo Delivery from China

One partner for the whole route — we move your cargo from China to Europe, the CIS, the Gulf or Africa, door-to-door, on a single all-in price.

International delivery is one partner for the whole route — from the Chinese factory to your door — on a single all-in price. Instead of stitching together a freight forwarder, a customs broker, and a local courier and hoping the handoffs work, you have one team accountable from pickup to final delivery.

We deliver to the markets our clients actually buy for — Europe, the CIS, Central Asia, the Gulf, and Africa — by sea, rail, or air, with customs cleared on both ends. One quote, one contact, one party responsible if anything needs sorting.

The right fit

Who this is for

This service is for:

  • Importers shipping from China to Europe, the CIS, the Gulf or Africa who want one partner for the whole route.
  • Businesses tired of juggling a freight forwarder, a customs broker and a courier separately.
  • Buyers who need door-to-door delivery on a single price and a single point of contact.

  1. 1

    Scope the route

    We map origin, destination and deadline to pick the best mode and lane.

    Consolidate & document

    We gather goods, pack and prepare full export and import paperwork.

    Cargo ships on our routes and we keep you updated at every handover.

  5. 5

    Clear & deliver

    We handle customs at destination and deliver to your door.

What door-to-door includes

'Door-to-door' should mean exactly that: nothing for you to arrange between the factory and your premises. We bundle every leg into one service.

One price covers it; no separate bills appear along the way.

All in one service
  • Pickup from the supplier in China
  • Export clearance and documentation
  • Freight by sea, rail, or air
  • Customs clearance on arrival
  • Last-mile delivery to your door
  • One all-in price, agreed up front
  • One point of contact for the whole route

Where we deliver

Our network is built around the corridors our clients use most, not a generic world map. If your destination isn't listed, ask — we route to most countries through the same partners.

Routing is chosen for reliability, not just the line on a map.

One partner, the whole route

The route is the same chain every time, run by one team — so there's no gap where a shipment falls between two vendors.

You see each stage; we own all of them.

One partner vs piecing it together

You can assemble the route yourself from separate vendors — but the gaps between them are where shipments stall and costs creep.

Risk & response

Why it matters

The problem we solve — and how we solve it.

Common mistake / risk

Separate forwarders, brokers and couriers leave gaps where cargo stalls and no one owns the problem.

How Silk Way handles it

One team owns the whole route, so there are no handover gaps.

Common mistake / risk

A cheap port-to-port quote hides destination customs, duties and last-mile costs.

How Silk Way handles it

We quote true door-to-door, all-in, before you commit.

Common mistake / risk

Shipping to less-served markets — Africa, the CIS — means unreliable lanes and surprises.

How Silk Way handles it

We run established lanes to Europe, the Gulf, Africa and the CIS.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What does door-to-door mean?

We manage every leg from the Chinese supplier to your premises — pickup, export, freight, customs, and last-mile — so you don't arrange anything in between.

Which countries do you deliver to?

Primarily Europe, the CIS, Central Asia, the Gulf, and Africa, by sea, rail, or air. Other destinations are available on request through the same network.

Is it really one all-in price?

Yes — we quote a single price covering freight, clearance, and delivery, agreed before we start, so no separate bills appear along the route.

What shipping modes can you use?

Sea, rail, or air, chosen for your cargo, budget, and deadline. We'll recommend the best fit or combine them.

Who handles customs?

We do, on both ends — export in China and import on arrival — as part of the service.

What if part of the route goes wrong?

Because one team owns the whole chain, there's no finger-pointing between vendors — we sort it and keep you informed.

Can you deliver to multiple addresses?

Yes — we can split a shipment to several destinations or branches as part of last-mile delivery.

How much does international delivery cost?

Pricing isn't fixed — it depends on the complexity, scope, and resources the job needs. Tell us what you're planning and we'll give you a clear quote up front, with no hidden costs.

What importers say after working with us

Sourcing wins across steel, solar, energy storage, construction materials and supplier verification. Client names are withheld for confidentiality.

    They caught that our 'factory' was actually a trading company and found us the real manufacturer — it saved us from a costly mistake.
    Importer, solar EPC · Poland
