Today we will talk about how to send goods from China to Bali easily during your trip to Bali.
First, why do you need to send goods from China to Bali?
Forget to bring essentials: It is inevitable that you will miss some items during your trip, such as commonly used skin care products, medicines, electronic products, etc.
Shopping needs: Although Bali has a lot of specialty goods, some things are still cheaper or more suitable for you at home.
Special items: For example, some personal collectibles, work documents, etc. may need to be sent from home.
No matter what the reason is, as long as you know the right way of sending, it is actually not difficult to send goods to Bali from China!
Second, how to send goods to Bali from China? Here come the super detailed steps!
1. Purchase/prepare goods domestically
First of all, purchase the goods you need in China or prepare the personal items you want to send. Remember to check if the items meet the requirements for international transportation and avoid sending prohibited items (e.g. flammable and explosive goods, cigarettes and alcohol, etc.).
2. Contact a freight forwarder
Here we recommend a professional logistics company - Guangdong Wisdom Logistics (official website: http://www.zh-ow.com). They provide shipping services from China to Indonesia, including Bali. You can contact them through the official website or by phone to inform your needs.
Tip: Check in advance if they provide domestic transportation service from your location to Guangzhou, Shenzhen or Yiwu warehouse.
3. Deliver the goods to the designated warehouse
Provide detailed cargo list (packing list and invoice in Chinese/English).
Pack the goods properly, fragile goods must be wooden frame/crate, and provide fragile bond.
Deliver the goods to Wisdom Logistics' warehouses in Guangzhou, Shenzhen or Yiwu (specific address to be consulted).
Make sure the goods have a mark (your name or the abbreviation of the unique identifier) on the outer package.
4. Payment of freight and other charges
Depending on the type of goods (general cargo, sensitive cargo, etc.), choose the appropriate quotation. Intelligent Logistics' offer is usually a “direct double-clearance tax inclusive offer”, which includes ocean freight, export customs declaration, import customs clearance and customs duty.
Note: Bali is not part of Jakarta's free delivery area, so you need to pay extra for local delivery from Jakarta to Bali. Please consult with your freight forwarder for the exact cost.
