More and more overseas users are keen to "shop" on Taobao, but international shipping has become a "stumbling block": language barriers, complex logistics, high freight costs, package loss... These problems have greatly reduced the shopping experience. Faced with a variety of forwarding companies, complex customs policies and high freight costs, how should overseas consumers solve them? How to send your favorite Taobao products overseas safely, quickly and at low cost?
Whether you are a B2B company, a global e-commerce seller, or a personal shopper, understanding Taobao's international shipping process can be confusing, especially when some sellers do not provide international direct mail services. At this time, professional Taobao forwarding services like CNstorm come in handy.
As a professional Taobao forwarding service provider, Cnstorm has been deeply involved in the field of international logistics for many years and has served more than 100,000 overseas users. Today we will reveal the hidden skills of Taobao international shipping to help you easily achieve "global shopping"!
Pain point 1: International shipping costs are ridiculously high, more expensive than the product!
User scenario: I want to buy a piece of clothing for 50 yuan, but the shipping cost is 200 yuan, which is a direct rejection.
Cnstorm solution:
Consolidation and grouping: Combine multiple packages into one, charge by weight or volume, and reduce the shipping cost by 30%-50%.
Special line channel: Provide customized routes such as China-US special line and European railway special line, which are more than 40% cheaper than official logistics.
Member discount: Register and receive shipping coupons, and long-term users can enjoy tiered discounts, saving up to 60%.
Pain point 2: Package lost/damaged, no way to protect rights after sales!
User scenario: The package shows "signed for", but it is not actually received; the product is damaged during transportation, and the seller and logistics blame each other.
Cnstorm solution:
Full logistics tracking: From Taobao sellers shipping to overseas signing, real-time update of logistics tracks, and the loss rate is <0.1%.
Free insurance service: All packages are automatically insured, with a maximum compensation of 5,000 yuan, and claims can be made for damage or loss.
Professional customer service team: Chinese and English bilingual customer service, 7×24 hours response, assisting in handling after-sales disputes.
Pain point 3: Customs clearance is stuck, and taxes are so high that you doubt your life!
User scenario: The package was detained by customs due to "inconsistent declaration", and high taxes and fees need to be paid.
Cnstorm solution:
Intelligent declaration system: Automatically generate compliance declaration forms according to product type and value to avoid being investigated due to under-declaration/over-declaration.
Tariff prepayment service: Calculate taxes in advance, and users can choose whether to prepay to avoid customs clearance delays.
Duty-free policy utilization: For countries such as the United States and the European Union, provide unpacking and boxing services to make reasonable use of tax-free quotas.
Support Taobao, JD.com, Pinduoduo and other platforms to receive goods, without the need to communicate with the seller separately. Fill in the Cnstorm China warehouse address as the delivery address on Taobao. The warehouse collects the parcels on behalf of you and supports merging multiple orders (saving shipping costs). Fill in the Cnstorm member ID in the "Remarks" column to facilitate the warehouse to quickly identify the parcel.
After all parcels arrive at the Cnstorm warehouse, the system automatically pushes the warehouse entry notification. Log in to the Cnstorm account to submit product information (automatically translate the Chinese product name to avoid customs misunderstanding). Select value-added services such as "reinforced packaging" and "remove labels" (reduce transportation damage rate). Free photography of the products in the package is provided, and shipment is made after confirmation. Remove excess packaging and merge multiple packages to save shipping costs. For fragile items, bubble film and carton reinforcement services are provided.
Match the best route based on weight, timeliness, and budget.
The system automatically calculates freight + tariff prepayment (supports multi-currency payments such as Alipay and PayPal). After the package is sent out, the logistics status is tracked in real time through the Cnstorm system. Cnstorm cooperates with international logistics such as DHL and FedEx to provide priority customs clearance services. Track the status of the package in real time, and the customs clearance progress is transparent and traceable.
Lightweight goods (such as clothing and plush toys) are charged by volumetric weight (length × width × height ÷ 5000), and compressed vacuum packaging is recommended.
Low declaration risk: Some forwarding companies deliberately underreport to avoid taxes, which may result in fines. Cnstorm strictly splits packages according to the duty-free amount of the destination country. DDP (duty prepaid) is suitable for high-value goods, with transparent fees and no hidden expenses.
Transportable: ordinary electronic products (CE certification required), food (providing ingredient list), and battery products (UN38.3 certification). It is prohibited to transport liquids, powders, and weapons.
Using Cnstorm's purchasing and payment service, the customer service will place an order as a local Chinese buyer to avoid merchant restrictions, and the handling fee is only 3%.
The declared value of the personal package is lower than the duty-free amount of the destination country (such as Canada C$20), and it is marked as "Gift". Cnstorm automatically splits multiple packages for delivery to avoid taxes in compliance.
Take the "Special Product Line", provide MSDS safety certificate, pass aviation safety certification, and the success rate of the US/European line exceeds 95%.
When shopping on Taobao, most sellers only provide delivery services within China. To ship goods overseas, you need to use international transshipment or delivery services. CNstorm provides international package transshipment solutions and provides you with a delivery address in China. After your items arrive at the CNstorm warehouse, we will integrate, inspect, and transport them internationally according to your preferences, saving you time, money, and energy.
Fully transparent prices: no hidden fees, the system automatically compares shipping costs + tariffs, which are 15%-30% lower than peers.
Intelligent risk control: real-time monitoring of 200+ national policy changes (such as the EU's new battery law) and automatic adjustment of declaration strategies.
Full-link visibility: from Taobao ordering to overseas receipt, full GPS tracking, and push reminders at key nodes.
