A plain-language definition of Delivered Duty Paid shipping from China, what the fixed price covers, and how the process works end to end.
XCJD Logistics is a China-based international freight forwarder founded in 2011 that has shipped DDP door-to-door since day one — 15+ years, 8,000+ shipments, 150+ destinations.
China DDP shipping (Delivered Duty Paid) is a door-to-door service where one fixed price covers freight, export and import clearance, all applicable duties and taxes, and final delivery. The seller owns customs risk through licensed brokers — the buyer pays nothing extra at destination.
Most "China shipping" confusion comes from comparing freight-only quotes. DDP is the full landed-cost number — the number that actually matters for budgeting and pricing your products.
| Included | Not included (confirm at quote) | | --- | --- | | Freight, clearance, duties/taxes, final delivery | Unplanned storage/detention from incomplete buyer data |
Product and HS category, carton count, total weight and dimensions, supplier city, destination address, and specs/photos for sensitive cargo.
Since 2011 DDP has been our core model — one fixed price, licensed brokers, no surprise bills. See our DDP/DDU service page for the full service definition.

Delivered Duty Paid — the seller delivers goods to the buyer with freight, clearance, duties and delivery included in one fixed price.
The seller. XCJD Logistics handles clearance through licensed brokers, so customs risk sits with us, not the buyer.
Supplier pickup, export documents, international freight, import clearance, all applicable duties and taxes, and final delivery.
Anything outside the quoted scope — e.g., unplanned storage or detention caused by missing buyer data. We confirm the full scope before booking.
Transit depends on mode: express 3–7 days, air 5–12 days, sea 20–50 days, rail 15–20 days, plus clearance time at destination.
Not always — "door-to-door" describes delivery scope; DDP specifies that duties are paid and included. XCJD offers DDP door-to-door as standard.
Send product, weight, dimensions, supplier city and destination. We quote one fixed price within 24 hours.
