The “Postal Parcel” service, also known as the e-commerce parcel, is a new product launched by China Post China Post Group Corporation specifically for the domestic light and small-item delivery market. It focuses on various delivery needs of the e-commerce industry, provides personalized services to contract customers, and implements batch delivery, appointment delivery, door-to-door signature delivery, and SMS notification during the delivery process. Small parcels sent abroad through postal services are called international parcels. International parcels are divided into ordinary air mail and registered mail. The former has a lower rate, but does not provide tracking and inquiry services: the latter has a slightly higher rate and can provide online tracking and inquiry services.
China Post Parcel is an air mail product for small items, just like the Hong Kong Parcel, Swiss Parcel, Swedish Parcel, Singapore Post Parcel, and Malaysian Parcel services, which can be sent to various postal outlets in more than 200 countries around the world. It is another comprehensive and reasonably priced postal solution provided by a professional multinational e-commerce logistics supplier to e-commerce sellers.
Advantages of postal parcels:
Among the several logistics methods that sellers can choose for foreign trade business on domestic AliExpress or other platforms, the advantages of postal parcels are mainly as follows:
First, wide postal coverage. Postal international parcels can be mailed to more than 200 countries and regions around the world. As long as there is a place to mail, it can be delivered, which greatly expands the market space of AliExpress sellers and is conducive to the extensive expansion of foreign markets. In addition, it is applicable to a wide range of goods, and generally there are no special restrictions, unless it is international contraband.
Second, convenient mailing. Postal parcels eliminate various complicated procedures and documents. Parcels are directly handed over for mailing, and the billing method is unified globally. The weight is calculated in “grams”, and the first weight and additional weight are not counted. This greatly simplifies freight calculation and cost control, and is convenient for delivery.
Third, the price is favorable. my country’s postal parcels cooperate with the Universal Postal Union. Compared with other modes of transportation (such as EMS, the four major express delivery companies, domestic private express delivery companies, etc.), postal parcel services have an absolute price advantage. Sellers can use this delivery method to minimize costs and improve price competitiveness.
Fourth, strong customs clearance. Since my country’s postal service is a member of the Universal Postal Union and a member of the Kahala Organization, customs clearance at the postal customs generally does not occur, and usually does not incur other freight charges. The customs clearance efficiency is very high.
