First of all, we need to know what factors affect the price of international express delivery?

In addition to the destination country, region, actual weight, volume weight, and item category, the main factors affecting the price of international express delivery also include transportation time, transportation channels, and other factors.

1. Choose the most suitable mode of transportation

Depending on the different destinations and time requirements, we can choose different modes of transportation, including sea transportation, air transportation and land transportation. Among them, sea transportation is the cheapest mode of transportation, but it takes a long time; air transportation is the fastest mode of transportation, but the price is relatively high; land transportation is a mode of transportation suitable for cross-border e-commerce, with a moderate price, but the issue of customs clearance needs to be considered.

2. Choose the destination country reasonably

Different mailing channels have different advantages in different countries, such as: DHL has advantages in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East; FedEx has obvious advantages in Southeast Asia and North America; TNT has price advantages in the Middle East, South America, Southeast Asia and other countries.

3. Choose appropriate packaging materials

When choosing packaging materials, we should choose appropriate materials, and try to choose materials that are light, strong, and not easily damaged. This can reduce the weight and volume of the package, thereby saving a certain amount of shipping costs.

4. Types of products to be mailed

Generally, international express delivery is carried out by air to the destination, which imposes many restrictions on the products. For example, some electrical products and cosmetics are not supported by some international express delivery services; therefore, you should choose a suitable channel according to the type of product you are mailing.

5. Choose the right international courier

Choose based on the timeliness. If you have low requirements for timeliness and it is not urgent, you can choose any channel. If the item is urgent, choose an international courier that has a better timeliness advantage in the destination country.
