    Time required for air cargo from China to Poland airport

    The time for air - freighted goods from China to Polish airports varies due to factors such as the route and whether there are transit stops. Generally, direct flights take less time, while transit flights take relatively longer. The overall time is about 1 - 5 days. The details are as follows:

  • The fastest door-to-door delivery time is 3-5 days (including the time from the Chinese warehouse to the Polish warehouse)
  • Domestic operation and export customs clearance: Security check, palletizing and export formalities at the Chinese airport (usually about 1 day).
    Direct flight time: The plane flies directly from a Chinese airport to a Polish airport (about 9-12 hours), but with pre-takeoff preparations, waiting for takeoff, taxiing after landing, etc., the whole process is about 1-1.5 days.
    Polish import customs clearance: This is a big variable! If the information is complete, it is not sensitive goods, and the customs does not check, it can be completed in half a day to one day at the fastest; if there is a check or there is a problem with the information, it may take several days.
    Delivery in Poland: After customs clearance, the truck will deliver your goods to the final destination (Polish warehouse or customer address) (0.5 - 2 days, depending on the distance).
