Packing Guideline for shipping from China to Japan
In today’s world, goods are classified to different types. For example, in terms of nutrition, goods are divided into two categories of food and non-food, and according to a chemist, goods are divided into three categories of mineral, vegetable and artificial goods, or they can be grouped into two general groups of liquid and solid goods.
In Sea freight, because the problem is the movement of large quantities of goods based on weight and volume from one point to another, goods are classified according to the conditions and facilities required for long-term Sea freight. For Sea freight is economic and cost-effective, ships must store large quantities of one or more types of goods in one or more warehouses. Packaging guidelines for shipping from China to Japan are as the following:
- To ensure that old labels and markings are removed from packing, and they are fixed according to the waybill of the shipment.
- The barcodes on the waybill are scanned at numerous points during your shipment’s journey. Please ensure the barcode is flat and not covered by tape, shrink-wrap or strapping
- Place the waybill on the top or side of your shipment and please ensure it does not overlap the corners or edges of boxes
- Use adequate protective wrapping for fragile or delicate items and ensure they are packed as far away as possible from the corners of boxes
- To prevent injury, please pay special attention to the packaging of sharp items. There should not be any possibility of the contents piercing the packaging.
Shipping Methods from China to Japan:
We can provide cost estimates and explain the pros and cons of each shipping method in your specific situation. However, it’s best to have some background knowledge of these methods beforehand as well.
The main options are express shipping by courier service, airfreight, and sea freight. In this section, we’ll provide a quick overview of how each method works as well as their respective strengths and weaknesses.
Express Shipping freight From China to Japan:
This is the fastest option to ship goods to Japan. With Express shipping, your merchandise can reach its destination within 10-12 hours. With Express shipping courier services see your packages from door-to-door – that is, from your supplier factory to the items’ end destination.
A variety of well-known carriers offer these services, such as UPS, TNT, FedEx, and EMS. They all have good reputations for reliability, so you can rest easy knowing your items are quickly making their way to their destination. These carriers use a variety of methods (airfreight and sea freight which we’ll go into in greater depth later) to provide a hands-off, worry-free service. They can pick up your inventory at your door (or factory) and see it to a designated address, whether that be the warehouse in Japan or directly to your Japanese customers.
Door-to-door express shipping handles items of all sizes and weights. Light items are generally air-freighted for speed and heavy items are sea-freighted, which involves a longer ship time. But since they come directly to your door, they are the most convenient option.
Upsides to express shipping: A fast, worry-free experience for you
Downsides to express shipping: More expensive than alternatives
Air freight from China to Japan:
The biggest advantage of airfreight is its speed. Items leaving China can arrive in Japan within 1-2 days. This is optimal for high-value items since they spend less time in transit. However, there are a few trade-offs for that speed.
Airfreight is generally more expensive than rail or sea. It’s also better for small items because airlines have weight and volume restrictions. Airfreight also uses more fuel than alternatives, so if carbon footprint is a concern for you and your company ethic, you’ll want to opt for sea freight.
Keep in mind that airfreight normally only involves delivering goods to an airport in Japan, not to the inventory’s ultimate destination. Additional transportation accommodations must be made to get your shipment to its final destination. The exception, of course, is if you’ve arranged for door-to-door transportation. As discussed above, door-to-door delivery allows arrangements to be made to transport the goods from the airport to their end destination, as well as clearance through Japanese customs.
What goods are usually sent by air from China to Japan?
Air freight customers are merchants who often carry goods of low weight and size but high value. Or in any case, it needs to be in the destination in the shortest possible time according to the time conditions. Some of these importers are:
- Importers of mobile phones, mobile parts and related accessories.
- Importers of laptops, computer parts and related accessories.
- Importers of flash memory, external hard drives and power banks.
- Importers of medicines and medical supplies that must reach their destination as soon as possible.
- Importers of petrochemical equipment and industrial instruments, who often import their goods as a project and must deliver the goods to their destination within a certain period of time.
- Importers of perishable goods.
- Importers of luxury car parts who import their goods to the destination according to the customer’s order
- Importers of electronic components.
Airfreight is split into two categories: general cargo and special cargo. As the name suggests, most items are considered general cargo.
General cargo
In shipping, break general cargo are goods that must be loaded individually, and not in intermodal containers nor in bulk as with oil or grain. Ships that carry this sort of cargo are called general cargo ships. You can ship your common products through general cargo. If you are not importing dangerous goods then you can go through general cargo.
Examples of general cargo:
Electronics
Jewelery
Pharmaceuticals
Personal accessories like watches, purses, etc.
Special cargo
Cargo that requires special handling or protection, such as pyrotechnics, detonators, watches, and precision instruments. Special cargo is subject to different regulations than general cargo, which can involve additional inspections. If you are doing business with fragile or dangerous items, then special cargo is for you.
Examples of special cargo:
Fragile items
Dangerous items, like certain chemicals
Items that need to be temperature-controlled, such as seafood
What is dangerous goods?
Dangerous goods can simply be defined as any material that contains hazardous properties. When discussing cargo shipping, any goods of a sensitive nature that could pose a health risk to handlers and humans can be classified as a dangerous good if not properly controlled. Dangerous goods are also classed based on their nature of hazards such as explosive, flammable, inflammable and poisonous, etc.
What is the difference between dangerous vs. Hazardous?
Hazardous substances of agents are classified based on their health effects on humans, while dangerous goods are classified based on the immediate chemical or physical impact they have on the environment such as explosions, fire, poisoning, corrosion, etc.
What is fragile items?
Fragile items includes anything that can be easily broken, from glassware to antiques and more. These delicate items can be made of any material, including crystal and ceramic, and need extra attention before shipping. XCJD logistics provide a security over your fragile items.
Remember, some airlines have restrictions that prevent them from handling special cargo. When obtaining an estimate, make sure you mention any items that might fit into this category. The type of items you’re shipping can impact what airlines (and which airport destinations) your items can travel through. This, in turn, can affect the price you end up paying.

Upsides to airfreight: Fast
Downsides to airfreight: Expensive, high carbon footprint, constraints on what type of items can be shipped via air
Sea Freight shipping service from China to Japan:
Sea freight is the most common method of shipping items from China to Japan, mainly because of its versatility and reliability. While rail and airfreight have constraints on what items they can carry, practically everything can be shipped by sea, including very large and heavy items (like cars). The main downside to sea freight is its timeline. While other shipping methods deliver cargo in a matter of days, sea freight takes weeks. Items usually take between 5-7 days to reach their destination, depending on the type of freight and the specific ports of departure and arrival.
Sea freight operates under the same FCL and LCL container system as train railway freight. Consider container sizes when choosing shipment sizes and when obtaining a price estimate, since prices for FCL and LCL are different. We can help to make commercial invoice, customs clearance and buy insurance for your shipment.

We are providing some special service for shipping your merchandise. Our port-to-port, door-to-port and, door-to-door service helps you to find best way of shipping. If you don’t know about these services then we will help to learn.
Port-to-port
In ocean freight, port-to-port shipping involves the middle leg of the entire shipping process. Under this, the transportation of merchandise in shipping containers from the port of origin to the port of destination. It doesn’t include pre-carriage and on- carriage transportation service. Given the volatile and precarious situation shipping lines are often faced with at sea, there lies a certain unpredictability in this portion of shipping process. This is largely why this trends to be the most expensive part of the shipping process.
Door-to-port
Door-to-port service in an efficient and cost-effective way of shipping goods internationally. This process beings when goods are picked up from your home, then you are responsible for the foreign customs formalities process and for arranging delivery of the goods to your final destination. We will notify you prior to cargo arrival to the port of destination and refer you to one of our customs brokers to help clear customs and process required paperwork.
Door- to-door shipping
Door-to-door shipping is a service where the freight forwarder guarantees that the goods will be picked up from and delivered to the destination decided by the customer. We will pick up the shipping container from your warehouse and bring it to the port gate. No matter which type of delivery you chose, it is important to know what all of your options are before shipping. It is different from door-to-port or port-to-port because it begins and ends at specific address within cities covered by the freight forwarder.
Comparing Shipping Methods at a Glance:
Shipping Cost from China to Japan:
Typically, you will hear that shipping by ocean is cheaper than shipping by air when shipping by road isn’t an option. This is usually true, however, this is not necessarily in all instances. Airlines bill you by what is called a chargeable weight when utilising this as a shipping method. Chargeable weight is calculated from a combination of both the size and the weight of a shipment. As a shipment gets smaller, the increments between the prices is and sometimes air will even end up being cheaper than sea freight.
Express | High |
Air Freight | High |
Sea Freight | Low |
Benefits of ocean freight:
- Suitable for a wide range of products
- Large volume shipping
- Most environmentally friendly within all modes of transport
- Economical and cost effective.
- Extensive worldwide coverage
- Multiple carrier options
Sea shipping is different in that sea carriers charge per container rates for shipping in standard containers. While weight can factor into the price for sea freight, their charge tends to be primarily based on the size of a shipment. If you are shipping less than a container load, your price will likely be determined by cubic meter. With larger and heavier shipments, shipping by sea tends to be the more cost-effective route.
Benefits of air freight:
- Quick transit
- Reliable arrival and departures
- Enhanced level of security for your cargo
Speed
When it comes to speed it is without a doubt that air freight is usually much faster than ocean, and train is faster than road. When it comes to business time is money, this factor alone could make a huge difference when determining what freight method is best for you. Many sea shipments can take roughly a month to arrive at their destination while an air shipment often takes only a couple days.
For most import and export businesses, faster is better. It should be noted that technology keeps moving forward in the world of international shipping. Ships are constantly getting faster, and canals have created shorter shipping routes. There are many ocean freight shipments that are crossing oceans with delivery times as short as eight days.
