Characteristics and advantages of postal parcels from Singapore, Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands and Switzerland

1. Advantages of Singapore Post small parcel

Singapore Post’s small parcel, especially its charged small parcel service, was once regarded as its core competitiveness and had obvious price advantages. As one of the three major postal parcels, Singapore Post has demonstrated strong delivery timeliness and cost-effectiveness in the Southeast Asian market. In 2014, Alibaba acquired about 10% of Singapore Post’s shares, a move aimed at providing a more convenient export channel for 3C products. Compared with China Post Small Packet and China Hong Kong Post Small Packet, Singapore Post occupies a more important position in the export of live products. The delivery time to Western European countries is generally within 10 to 15 working days.

2. Characteristics of postal parcels from Germany, Belgium, Switzerland and the Netherlands

In the market competition, postal parcels from countries such as Germany, Belgium, Switzerland and the Netherlands have become ideal choices for shipping to Europe due to their high timeliness and stability. These postal parcel products not only support the delivery of charged items, but also promote the improvement of the overall service level of parcels. For example, the delivery time for German Post parcels to the UK, France or Germany is approximately 5 to 8 working days, and some routes can also deliver live products. The fastest delivery time for Swiss Post small parcels can also reach 10 working days, and the delivery of live products is also supported. These services are carried by local postal companies, making the customs clearance process smoother and reducing the occurrence of packet loss.

3. Choices to adapt to different logistics needs

Although the German, Belgian and Dutch postal parcels are slightly inferior in terms of price advantage, if the seller wants to improve the customer experience, this option is relatively feasible. Especially when it comes to products with heavier quality or higher price, using these postal parcels can optimize logistics services and ensure timely delivery. At the same time, for ultra-light or ultra-low-profit products, sellers still need to strengthen cost considerations to find the optimal logistics solution.

4. Matters needing attention

When conducting international logistics, you need to pay special attention to the customs clearance policies of different countries. For example, Switzerland is not a member of the European Union and therefore requires extra attention when it comes to customs clearance. At the same time, in some EU countries, such as Italy and Germany, there may be difficulties in customs clearance, affecting the delivery time. However, parcels sent to Belgium, Spain, the Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark and other countries can usually be successfully delivered within 8 to 15 days. From the perspective of market stability, both Belgian Postal Parcel and Dutch Postal Parcel currently support the delivery of charged products, further enhancing the appeal of these postal parcel services.
