India is one of the fastest-growing markets for Chinese goods, with high demand for electronics, machinery, auto parts, apparel, consumer products, and industrial equipment. Indian importers, wholesalers, brands, and Amazon sellers frequently navigate complex customs procedures, high import duties, GST, and inland logistics across major ports and inland cities.
GreenPlusExport's China-based team coordinates the full process: supplier communication, quality control, sea or air freight forwarding, documentation preparation, and support for delivery to Indian warehouses or distribution centers. We help reduce common uncertainties when shipping to India.
Shipping costs vary by method, volume, and routing. Sea freight (FCL) typically ranges $1,800–$4,500 for a 20ft container or $2,400–$5,800 for 40ft to major Indian ports. Air freight averages $4.5–$10 per kg for urgent or high-value goods. Additional costs include origin handling, quality inspections ($100–$300), inland transport in China, import duties, and 18% GST. End-to-end timelines often span 6–14 weeks including sourcing and production.
