China to Bangladesh Shipping Forwarder Rates: The Ultimate Guide (2025)

By Total Import Solution

Are you a business owner in Dhaka, Chittagong, or anywhere in Bangladesh looking to import goods? Are you confused by complex shipping terms, hidden customs charges, and fluctuating China to Bangladesh shipping forwarder rates?

You are not alone. China is the manufacturing hub of the world, and Bangladesh is one of its biggest trade partners. However, finding a reliable logistic partner who offers transparent pricing and handles the entire customs clearance process is difficult.

Welcome to Total Import Solution. We are not just a shipping agency; we are your complete supply chain partner. Whether you are importing heavy machinery for a factory or sourcing trendy products from Alibaba, Taobao, Amazon, or eBay, we bring the world to your doorstep.

In this comprehensive guide, we will break down everything you need to know about shipping rates, methods, and how to save money on your next import.

Part 1: Understanding Shipping Routes from China to Bangladesh

To understand the rates, you must first understand the methods. At Total Import Solution, we offer two primary modes of transport, optimized for your budget and timeline.

1. Air Freight (Door-to-Door)

Best For: Electronics, fashion items, urgent samples, spare parts, and high-value, low-weight goods.
Route: Guangzhou/Shenzhen/Shanghai ➔ Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport (Dhaka).
Time: 7–12 Days (approx).
Why Choose Us: Most forwarders only ship to the airport. Total Import Solution clears the customs at Dhaka airport and delivers the parcel directly to your office or home.

2. Sea Freight (Door-to-Door & C&F)

Best For: Heavy machinery, raw materials, furniture, bulk fabrics, and large commercial consignments.
Route: Chinese Ports ➔ Chittagong Port.
Time: 25–40 Days (approx).
LCL vs. FCL:
- LCL (Less than Container Load): You share a container with others. You pay only for the space (CBM) you use.
- FCL (Full Container Load): You book the entire container (20ft or 40ft).

Part 2: How Are Shipping Rates Calculated?

Many competitors hide their charges. At Total Import Solution, we believe in transparency. Shipping rates from China to Bangladesh depend on three main factors:

A. Weight vs. Volume (The Chargeable Weight)

This is where most importers get confused.

Actual Weight: The weight of the package on a scale (kg).
Volumetric Weight: The space the package occupies (Length x Width x Height / 6000).
Rule: Airlines charge whichever is higher.
Our Promise: We help you repackage goods to reduce volume and save you money.

B. Product Category

Not all products are taxed the same.

General Goods: (Bags, Shoes, Phone Accessories) – Lower Rate.
Sensitive Goods: (Liquids, Batteries, Cosmetics) – Slightly Higher Rate due to special handling.
Heavy Machinery: Calculated by CBM (Cubic Meter) via Sea Freight.

C. The “All-Inclusive” Rate

Unlike other forwarders who quote a low shipping fee but hit you with huge hidden bills at Chittagong or Dhaka Customs, Total Import Solution offers an All-Inclusive Door-to-Door Rate.

Our Rate Includes: Pick up in China + Shipping Cost + Bangladesh Customs Duty + VAT + Tax + Delivery to your door. No hidden fees.

Part 3: Sourcing from Alibaba, Taobao, and 1688

We are the experts in sourcing from the world’s biggest platforms.

Importing from Alibaba & 1688

Alibaba is great for bulk, but 1688.com often has cheaper prices (intended for the domestic Chinese market). The problem? 1688 sellers usually don’t speak English and don’t ship abroad.

The Total Import Solution: We buy from 1688 on your behalf. We pay the supplier in RMB, receive the goods at our China warehouse, and ship them to Bangladesh.

Importing from Amazon & eBay (USA/UK to BD)

Do you need specialized equipment or brands only available in the USA? We also provide Door-to-Door import from Amazon and eBay.

Part 4: Heavy Machinery & Industrial Equipment

Total Import Solution specializes in the industrial sector. Bangladesh is developing, and new factories need machinery. We supply:

Construction Machinery (Excavators, Mixers).
Textile Machinery.
Agricultural Equipment.
Raw Materials for Real Estate (Stone, Hardware).

Why trust us with machinery?

Shipping heavy equipment requires special handling and complex customs paperwork. Our experienced team ensures your expensive machinery arrives without damage and without getting stuck in Chittagong port for months.

Part 5: Exporting from Bangladesh to the World

We are not just a one-way street. If you are a manufacturer in Bangladesh producing garments, handicrafts, leather goods, or agricultural products, we can help you expand.

Service: Export Door-to-Door to USA, Europe, Middle East, and Asia.
We Handle: Export ERC, paperwork, and freight booking.
