Can I buy things on Amazon Japan and ship them to China? Can I ship directly to China?

Now many people choose to shop on Amazon. Shopping on Amazon involves cross-border e-commerce, so you need to consider the logistics factor. Can you buy things on Amazon Japan and ship them to China?

1. Can I buy things on Amazon Japan and have them shipped to China?

Yes, you can. Amazon Japan now has a direct shipping service to China. If you choose to ship directly to China, you can fill in the delivery address in pinyin. The goods will be arranged to be transported to China and then handed over to the logistics company for delivery.

2. Can all Japanese products be shipped directly to China?

1. Only some designated products can be shipped directly to China, which can be determined from the product page. For example, products that can be shipped directly to China will have the words "l Overseas Priority Delivery" written on them. Products that cannot be shipped directly will also have a prompt on the page, indicating that they cannot be delivered, so they can only be shipped back to China through transshipment.

2. Generally speaking, most of Japan's self-operated products support direct mail. If it is a product from a store outside the platform, you need to communicate with the seller to see if international express delivery can be used to ship directly to the country.

3. If you don't understand Japanese, you can drag to the bottom of the page and choose to switch the language to Chinese, which will make the operation more convenient. Compared with transshipment, direct mail can save you the tedious steps of finding a company and providing relevant information. Moreover, if the purchase amount reaches the platform's free shipping requirements, it can be shipped to the country for free, which can save a lot of shipping costs. And it is also more efficient.

4. However, the probability of direct mail being taxed is also relatively high, so it is recommended that you do not purchase too many products at once, and the value should not be too high, so that you do not have to worry about being taxed.

5. Direct mail from Japan takes about 10-15 days. If it is a big promotion such as Black Friday or Primeday, the delivery time will be slower. The specific time is also related to the customs clearance speed. If you have not received the goods for a long time, it is recommended that you check whether the product has been detained and you need to pay taxes.

6. If you think you can wait, you can choose direct mail products. Usually most of the products are self-operated. It depends on whether what you want to buy is available in these stores. If there is a page, it will also show direct mail. Direct mail is relatively more stable and does not require re-transfer, which is more convenient.

7. In fact, Amazon Japan can ship directly to China, but not all products can be shipped directly. Some products are not available for direct shipping. At this time, you can only choose the forwarding method. Therefore, it is recommended that you choose a forwarding company in advance. Of course, it would be best if it can be shipped directly. If it cannot be shipped directly, you can choose a forwarding company.

Things purchased in Japan can also be shipped to China, so you can rest assured that due to distance issues, the waiting time for Amazon's logistics will definitely be longer than that of domestic e-commerce because it needs to go through customs.
