Start by selecting a reliable courier service, preparing your package properly, and ensuring you have all required documents such as a commercial invoice, packing list, and any destination-specific forms. It’s important to verify customs regulations before shipping.

Typically required documents include a commercial invoice, CN22/23 declaration forms, packing list, and in some cases, an export declaration or certificate of origin depending on the shipment type and destination regulations.

Ensure all forms are accurately filled, the contents are clearly described, declared values are honest, and no prohibited items are included. Working with experienced couriers also helps ensure proper handling of customs clearance.

Use strong, corrugated boxes with internal padding like bubble wrap or foam for fragile items. Label the box clearly with destination details, and consider adding ‘Fragile’ or ‘This Side Up’ if appropriate.

Compare services based on delivery time, pricing, tracking capabilities, insurance, and customer reviews. For important or urgent shipments, opt for express services with guaranteed delivery windows and real-time tracking.
