OCS Spedition is the innovative logistics partner for shipments of all kinds of goods to China
The People's Republic of China is the fourth largest country in the world in terms of area. In 2001, China reached an important milestone in its integration into the global economy with its long-negotiated accession to the WTO. Since then, the Chinese economy has gained momentum and its gross domestic product has increased fivefold in just twelve years. The investment conditions have also been comprehensively reformed since then. The country has made the leap from being the world's workbench for cheap mass-produced goods to becoming a producer of some high-quality consumer and technology products.
For German companies, China, with its almost 1.4 billion people, is a very important import and export market . Every year we not only purchase goods worth over 100 billion euros (2017: +7.1% compared to the previous year) from China, but we also export motor vehicles worth more than 86 billion euros (2017: +13.3% compared to the previous year). and parts, machines, data processing equipment, electronic and optical products as well as rubber and plastic products.
The sea route is one of the most reliable and cheapest transport solutions for shipments of goods to and from China, but requires a delivery time of around four weeks. Many companies often don’t have the time. Air freight impresses with its short transport times, but is extremely expensive compared to sea freight. A more cost-effective, environmentally friendly and even less time-consuming logistics solution is the “China train”. Depending on the place of departure, the freight train takes around 14 days to cover the approximately 10,000 km route.
Our employees have a clear understanding of the various transport options to China and the country-specific requirements. After analyzing the order situation, we will work with you to develop the optimal logistics solution for your shipments of goods and goods so that they reach the recipient on time. We check your necessary documents - purchase contract, shipping documents, power of attorney for the customs agent, commercial invoice - and, if necessary, help you prepare or complete the documents so that there are no delays in importation into China. Our specialists will properly pre-register your goods for cross-border traffic and submit the application for customs treatment via the China E-Port System.
It is our philosophy that a dispatcher is responsible for the successful delivery of your goods from the acceptance of the order to the exact transport planning through to delivery to the destination and can provide you with information about the current status at any time.
Because we want you to be able to concentrate on your export business and operate successfully on the Chinese market. We take complete care of the transport process.
