DDP TO UNITED KINGDOM
DDP Shipping from China to UK
Post-Brexit UK imports need a separate customs entry from the EU. We file the UK entry, handle VAT, and deliver DDP to your door or FBA.
WHY UNITED KINGDOM
Shipping to United Kingdom is where imports go wrong
DDP means we own the hard part. Here is what we handle before your goods move.
What importers to United Kingdom run into
Most delays and extra costs on the China to United Kingdom lane come from paperwork and compliance, not the freight itself. We front-load that work so the shipment does not stop at the border.
- Brexit means a UK customs entry, not an EU one, and the rules differ.
- UK VAT at 20% and CDS declarations apply on import.
- Goods without correct origin data get delayed at Felixstowe.
- FBA UK needs specific pallet and label specs or the center refuses the load.

FAQ
United Kingdom DDP questions
How is shipping to the UK different after Brexit?
The UK has its own customs territory. We file a UK entry (CDS), not an EU one, and handle UK VAT separately.
Do I need a UK VAT ID?
Under DDP we account for UK VAT using our own process, so you do not need to register.
Can you deliver to Amazon FBA UK?
Yes. We book the appointment and apply FBA pallet and label specs.
How long does sea DDP to the UK take?
About 28-35 days to Felixstowe, then delivery.
What origin data is needed?
Country of origin per item, so the UK entry is correct. We confirm this from your packing list.
Do you consolidate from multiple factories?
Yes, into one DDP shipment at our China warehouse.
