From a Delay to Smooth Delivery: My Transformation of Factory's Goods Shipping from Huizhou to Thailand
Last March, a batch of urgent electronic components from our factory needed to be shipped to Bangkok, Thailand. The logistics company we had been working with for many years suddenly raised the price and the customs clearance process was delayed for two weeks. The customer almost cancelled the order. That time, I personally went to the customs and sought help from the agent, feeling extremely stressed. It was precisely that lesson that made me fully understand - a reliable international logistics service is not about "finding a freight forwarder", but about "building a stable, transparent and professional cross-border supply chain".
Nowadays, our factory consistently ships goods from Huizhou to Thailand every month, whether it's complete sets of equipment or small batches of samples. We have never experienced such a nightmare before. If you are also troubled by the shipping of your goods, I hope my experience and summary can provide you with some practical references.
I.Full-chain coverage: Say goodbye to piecemeal transportation, one solution for the entire process
In the past, when we shipped goods, we had to find one company for shipping, another for customs declaration, and yet another for local delivery in Thailand. There were many steps and unclear responsibilities, and when problems occurred, everyone would shift the blame onto each other.
The main difference in the current cooperative logistics model lies in 【full-chain responsibility】. They offer:
- Three cross-border dedicated lines by sea, land and air:covering the entire territory of Thailand from Huizhou.
- Comprehensive cargo compatibility:
- Large quantities/Heavy goods/Full container:Directly from Huizhou Port to Linchbann Port or Bangkok Port in Thailand.
- Small items/Express items/Samples:Through air or land express lines to solve urgent needs.
This is like changing from "building your own computer" to "buying a brand new computer", all compatibility and subsequent services are guaranteed by a professional team. For us, cargo owners, peace of mind is the greatest benefit.
II. Cost transparency and certainty: Without hidden charges, the cooperation can last for a long time.
The most dreaded thing is to hear something like "Additional charge of XX is imposed halfway through the delivery". Now, in the contract we have signed, the charges are clearly listed:
HuiZhou to Thailand Door-to-Door Logistics (Example) Cost List
| Fee items | Included contents | Note |
| Basic transportation fee | Maritime freight / Land freight, fuel surcharge | Quoted by container type or cubic volume |
| Port of origin handling charges | Document fee, booking fee, THC, customs declaration fee | Packaging all-inclusive price |
| Destination customs clearance fee | Thai import customs declaration, customs duties / value-added tax payment | Core of double clearance and tax exemption |
| Destination delivery fee | Transportation from port to final destination in Thailand | Pricing by region |
| Other possible charges | Special inspections, address changes, etc. | Prior communication and confirmation |
More importantly, they offer monthly settlement services to long-term cooperation clients, significantly alleviating our cash flow pressure. This trust-based cooperation is the foundation for long-term mutual benefit.
III. Service is reliable and professional: Every detail matters
"Double Clearance and Tax-Free" is something many people talk about, but not many actually achieve "correct reporting, double clearance, and full custody". Here is a brief explanation:
- Official Declaration: Goods should be declared to the Chinese customs and Thai customs strictly based on their actual names and values. This is the cornerstone of legality and compliance. Although it may result in a slightly higher tax than "slightly illegal" declarations, it ensures that the goods will never have any worries in the future.
- Dual Clearing and Tax Payment: The customs declaration and tax payment (including tax payment) for both the origin country and the destination country are all handled by the freight forwarder. We only need to provide accurate information and wait for the goods to arrive at the Thai warehouse.
- Full Custody: From picking up the goods domestically to signing for them abroad, we do not need to intervene throughout the process.
Their certainty stems from strong professional support:
1.A 10-year experienced local customs clearance team:Familiar with the customs regulations of China and Thailand. We once had a batch of electronic products with batteries. Under their guidance, we prepared all the certification documents such as MSDS, and passed the customs clearance in one go.
2.Standard Operating Procedure (SOP):Before shipment, the customer service team will send a clear "Shipping Preparation Materials List". Just refer to it for preparation, and the process is extremely efficient.
3.Visualized trajectory tracking:Each container or package has an individual identification number. You can view its location on the official website, just like tracking a parcel.
4.Ability to Resolve Complex Cases:They have shared their experiences in handling complex cases such as the re-export trade of anti-dumping products and the application for tax exemption for high-value precision equipment, which reassured us.
IV. Not just transportation, but also industrial scenario-based solutions
A good logistics provider not only understands transportation but also knows your goods. They have provided in-depth solutions tailored to the advantageous industries of Huizhou:
| Industry category | Core pain point | The provided exclusive solution |
| Electronic products (Huizhou's Advantageous Industries) | Electrostatic damage, uncontrolled temperature and humidity, slow customs clearance | Anti-static packaging, temperature-controlled containers/vehicles monitoring, coordination of fast customs inspection channels |
| Mechanical equipment | Damage due to vibration and jolting, difficult unloading and installation | Strengthening with wooden crates/frames, lifting services, special transportation vehicles, installation guidance and coordination at the destination country |
| Furniture/Lighting | Fragile, prone to scratches, irregular shape | Customized damage prevention packaging (pearl cotton + corner protectors + comprehensive protection of wooden frames) |
| Dangerous goods and special cabinets (such as batteries, chemical products) | Incomplete documents, unstandardized operations carry high risks | Assistance in handling dangerous goods packaging certificates, IMDG certification, operated by professional teams |
Success case:One of our fellow lighting factories in Huiyang District sent a batch of crystal chandeliers to a high-end shopping mall in Thailand. The logistics company customized separate polyethylene foam grooves for each lamp, along with protective corners and reinforced wooden frames. Upon delivery, there were no damages at all, and the customers were extremely satisfied.
V. Deeply rooted in the local area, direct network delivery
They not only have operation centers in the industrial core areas such as Huizhou Huicheng District, Zhongkai High-tech Zone, Huizhou Yuyang District, and Dalianhai District, providing on-site pickup services, but also have established a complete delivery network in Thailand, covering the north (Chiang Mai), the center (Bangkok), the east (Ruang Yong), and the south (Phuket), ensuring that the goods can be delivered quickly and safely to the end customers upon arrival in Thailand.
Each customer is assigned a dedicated customer service representative. In case of any issue, they will respond and resolve it immediately, eliminating the situation where one might "not be able to reach anyone".
