Can the goods purchased on Shopee be shipped to mainland China? Can they be shipped directly to mainland China?

There are many high-quality products on the Shopee cross-border e-commerce platform, and the prices are relatively affordable, which has attracted many buyers from mainland China. So can the goods purchased on Shopee be shipped to mainland China?

1. Can the goods purchased on Shopee be shipped to mainland China?

Can

There are two types of sellers on Shopee: overseas sellers and Taiwanese sellers. Overseas sellers refer to sellers in countries or regions such as Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, and Vietnam. They can use Shopee's cross-border logistics services to send goods directly to buyers in mainland China.

Taiwanese sellers refer to sellers in Taiwan. They need to send the goods to the forwarding warehouse through a third-party forwarding company, and then the forwarding company will be responsible for sending the goods to buyers in mainland China.

Therefore, if you want to buy something on Shopee, you need to confirm the location of the seller first. If it is an overseas seller, you can place an order directly and choose Shopee cross-border logistics as the delivery method.

If you are a Taiwanese seller, you need to register an account with a forwarding company and provide the address of a forwarding warehouse. Then, when placing an order, fill in this address as the delivery address and select Shopee Taiwan Logistics as the delivery method.

After the goods arrive at the forwarding warehouse, you can pay the forwarding fee through the forwarding company's website or APP and fill in your real address in the mainland. Finally, you can wait for the forwarding company to send the goods to you.

2. Can Shopee deliver directly to mainland China?

Can't

According to the official statement of Shopee Shopping, Shopee Shopping currently only supports delivery to the following countries or regions: Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines and Taiwan.

Shopee does not currently offer delivery services to mainland China, nor does it plan to do so in the short term. Therefore, if you want to purchase goods on Shopee, you will need to have a delivery address in more than one country or region, and be responsible for any duties and taxes that may be incurred.

Although Shopee cannot ship directly to mainland China, you can purchase indirectly through some forwarding companies. Forwarding companies can help you place orders on Shopee, send the goods to their overseas warehouses, and then forward them to your mainland address.

In this way, you can enjoy the discounts and products of Shopee, but you will also need to pay additional shipping fees and may face the risk of product damage or loss.

Although there are some troubles and risks in buying things on the Shopee platform, if you can find the right products and sellers, you can also enjoy a good shopping experience.
