Information about China Post deliveries

China Post is one of the most used postal services in mainland China, by merchants and retailers. It is one of the best international shipping services and ensures most order deliveries within about 30 days.

Officially known as China Post Group Corporation, China Post, or Chinese La Poste , is the official operational postal transit service in China. It provides postal services for the entire national territory, with the exception of Hong Kong and Macau.

China Post was established in 1949, and takes over from Chunghwa Post which was the main player in the postal service of mainland China until then.

China Post is a postal operator founded and supervised by the State Post Bureau, responsible for the official regulation of the postal service in China.

China Post supports millions of packages each year, mostly from international e-commerce or markets in China. This state-run company represents a huge network composed of 82,116 branches and 236 sorting centers. It employs more than 860,000 people.

China Post offers different types of shipment depending on the type of package, Chinese la poste thus classifies small packages, large packages and express courier service (EMS Epacket). Any type of shipment can benefit from tracking, however, even without tracking, delivery times are the same.

The mode of transport is assigned according to the urgency of the shipment and the price of the package.

Air parcels that transit through China Air Parcel are transported by air, unlike Surface Air Lift packages that can be picked up by sea, land or air.

A shipping method has been specifically designed and created for E-commerce, in order to allow an expedited shipping service for online sellers: the ePacket.

This service is provided as part of the express mail service (EMS Epacket).

The ePacket service was designed in 2011, following an agreement between the United States Postal Service and the Hong Kong Post, in a desire to create a faster, more efficient shipment and transit of products for customers and sellers in these two territories.

This agreement has led to two major advances. It has allowed sellers and e-commerce players to have a real advantage in the market. It has also reassured customers by offering several shipping options while ensuring follow-up, which has helped to strengthen the confidence of consumers both individuals and professionals.

The ePacket agreements have been extended to other territories, which want more efficient and effective access to the US market.

The ePacket service ensures a safe, efficient and fast way to ship internationally, it is ideal for sellers who want to offer international shipping options for their products.

The ePacket service concerns parcels and so-called light consignments:

• the products must not exceed 2kg by weight
• the size of the packages is limited, it must not exceed 60 cm by 91 cm (24 inches by 36 inches)
• the value of the item sent must not exceed $400 (338.60 euros)

In addition to saving in terms of costs and time, ePacket allows buyers many advantages:

• returns are free on products that cannot be delivered, at no additional cost, which maintains the relationship of trust between customer and buyer
• door-to-door ePacket tracking, ePacket delivery allows the customer to track, at no additional cost, the routing of the delivery throughout the shipment, consulting sites such as EMS Epacket and USPS

This service is for you, whether you are a seller on eBay or a professional of a company if you are looking for low-cost shipping options, benefiting from assured tracking for shipping products around the world.

If you are an e-commerce company, ePacket allows you to familiarize yourself with the different regulations of postal transit, with shipping options at a lower cost. And thus maintain your profit margin and grow your business.
