LOGISTICS FOR APPAREL BRANDS

DDP shipping and Amazon FBA prep for clothing orders

A practical guide for US, Canadian and European brands that need womenswear produced in China and delivered to Amazon FBA, a 3PL warehouse, a boutique, or a business address.

DDP options

Door-to-door routes can include customs clearance and duties when available for your destination and product category.

FBA prep

Barcode labels, individual bags, carton marks and warehouse delivery details can be planned before final packing.

Launch timing

Sampling, bulk production, packing and freight should be planned together so inventory arrives before your launch date.

WHAT WE CAN PREPARE

Amazon FBA apparel prep

FNSKU or barcode labels, individual polybags, size/color separation, carton marks, carton weight checks and shipment-plan details before delivery.

DDP door-to-door shipping

BUYER QUESTIONS

DDP and FBA answers

Can you ship directly to Amazon?
Yes, if the order has the correct barcode labels, carton marks and warehouse instructions before packing. Amazon requirements should be shared early to avoid relabeling delays.
Can you ship to my 3PL warehouse instead of Amazon?
Yes. Many brands first ship to a 3PL warehouse for inspection, relabeling, bundling or multi-channel fulfillment.
Can you quote landed cost?
For many routes, Shanlinyang can help estimate DDP landed cost. Final pricing depends on order volume, carton dimensions, destination, duties and route availability.
What should I confirm before bulk packing?
Confirm size ratio, barcode files, bag warnings, carton label format, maximum carton weight, SKU separation, destination details and delivery deadline.
