Shipping from China to United States The Shipping calculation formula

A) When the actual weight of the item is greater than the volume, the calculation method of the freight is as follows:

The first weight freight + (weight (kg) × 2 - 1) × the additional weight freight

For example: 7KG goods are calculated according to the first weight of 20 CNY and the additional weight of 9 CNY, then the total freight is:

20+(7×2-1)*9=137 (CNY)


B) When the actual weight of the item to be delivered is small but the volume is large, the freight shall be charged according to the volume standard, and then the total freight shall be calculated according to the above formula. The formula for obtaining the volume is as follows:

Regular items: length (cm) × width (cm) × height (cm) ÷ 6000 = weight (KG)

Irregular items: longest (cm) × widest (cm) × highest (cm) ÷ 6000 = weight (KG)


C) Fuel surcharges for international express shipping

For example, the current fuel surcharge of DHL Express is 12%, and it needs to be added to the result of formula (A): freight × 12%

Fuel surcharges are generally discounted along with shipping charges

Total cost = (freight + fuel surcharge) × discount + packaging cost + other uncertain costs
