I am doing PL in UK. Currently, I am using DDP service from freight forwarders to ship my inventory from China to UK via sea.
Now, I am planning to use Amazon Global Logistic for my next shipment.
Many sellers find Amazon Global Logistics more transparent and better integrated with FBA shipments, but costs can vary depending on volume, timing, and destination.
Have you compared the AGL quote with your current DDP rates to see if the savings justify the switch?
You can enter all the details, such as the box dimensions, weight, number of pieces, and everything else accurately, and get an estimated shipping cost in Seller Central. I’ve used it to ship from China to the UAE and Saudi Arabia, and it works perfectly. It has made my life much easier and provides regular tracking. They’ve also offered me the best rates compared to other freight forwarders.
The overall service experience of AGL is acceptable at present, but it definitely cannot provide DDP service. The necessary documents for customs declaration and clearance need to be completed by yourself. You can consider using Chinese freight forwarders, which offer one-stop professional services and can provide both DDP and DDU models. The overall cost is also much lower than that of AGL.
