What you’ll need at pickup.
Customs paperwork is the most common reason an international parcel stalls. China requires more detail than most lanes — HS codes are not optional. We’ll walk you through it before pickup.
KYC + sender declaration
One photo ID for the person on the AWB, plus a written sender declaration of contents. We photograph it at pickup; not stored beyond DTDC’s record.
Commercial invoice with HS codes
Chinese customs (GACC) requires precise HS classification on every line — not just a description. We help look up the right HS code for auto-components, textiles, electronics. Recipient’s Chinese ID number speeds clearance.
Prescription (medicines)
GACC compliance for medicines is strict. Sealed strips, doctor’s prescription with registration number, name matching the recipient’s ID. No injectables, no liquid medicines, no controlled substances.
What China doesn’t let in.
China customs (GACC) enforces a long list of category and political restrictions. These are real Chinese rules — not our caution. Items shipped against them are seized, destroyed, and serious cases can mean criminal liability for the consignee.
Don’t even try
- Politically sensitive materials — books, images, media critical of the CCP; Tiananmen, Falun Gong, Tibet/Taiwan/Xinjiang advocacy materials. Strictly enforced — parcels are opened and read.
- Encryption hardware, GPS modules, drones — PRC tech-export and import controls catch these. Even hobbyist GPS loggers get held.
- Recreational drugs of any kind — severe penalty including the death penalty for trafficking-quantity. Don’t risk anything.
- Counterfeit branded goods — China customs takes IP enforcement seriously now.
- Adult materials — pornography is prohibited.
- Cryptocurrency hardware — cold-wallet hardware is treated as suspect.
- Liquids and aerosols of any kind — universal courier rule.
- Lithium batteries above 100 Wh — restricted on air leg.
Allowed with care
- Bhiwadi auto-component samples — fasteners, brackets, mechanical parts; declare HS code and the buyer’s business reference.
- Textiles & sarees — block-print fabric, cotton clothing, lehengas. Declare a fair value with HS code.
- Books and printed material — non-political titles. One personal copy of a religious text is normally fine.
- Sealed dry vegetarian sweets — declare every ingredient, factory-sealed only.
- Tablets with prescription — sealed strip, GACC-compliant paperwork. No injectables.
- Non-precious jewellery, small electronics — no GPS or encryption-controlled features. Declare make, model, value.
Bhiwadi auto-supply B2B, NCR-IT family parcels, documents.
Bhiwadi industrial-component B2B to Chinese auto-supply
Bhiwadi auto-component cluster has working relationships with Chinese auto-supply chains in Shenzhen, Guangzhou and Yiwu. Mechanical parts, fasteners, sample fixtures, technical drawings move from Bhiwadi suppliers to Chinese tier-supply buyers and to Yiwu wholesale outlets that distribute industrial fittings. Commercial invoice with HS codes is non-negotiable; we draft the first one.
Yiwu wholesale-market sourcing documents
Yiwu is a major Indian-merchant sourcing hub. Alwar-NCR traders maintain Yiwu offices and source decorative goods, retail stock, festival items. Contracts, samples, invoices, GST paperwork, sourcing-trip documents move on this lane.
NCR-IT family parcels
Alwar is on the NCR spillover — small Indian-business community in Beijing, Shanghai, Yiwu, Shenzhen has Alwar-NCR family connections. Festival outfits, sealed sweets, kitchen tools, photo prints. Shipped from the family home.
B2B handicraft samples
Block-print, papier-mâché, miniatures sent the reverse direction — Indian samples to Shanghai and Yiwu trade contacts. Marwari and Indian-merchant Alwar-NCR traders both source from China and place small Indian samples in Chinese demand-channels.
Returning-traveller baggage
Chinese tourists who completed the Delhi-Agra-Jaipur circuit and ran out of suitcase room. Picked up from the hotel, packed and shipped before they fly home.
Personal documents
Passports, originals, signed contracts, certified copies. Always express; tracked international document is faster and safer than registered post.
AWB on WhatsApp. Track on dtdc.in. POD when it lands.
The moment the parcel is booked into DTDC International, we send you the AWB number on WhatsApp. Type it into the public tracker at dtdc.in any time. When delivery happens we forward the POD — signed slip or photo — within the hour.
Asked most often.
Why does China customs sometimes hold parcels for 3–7 days?
GACC (General Administration of Customs of China) runs randomised inspections — they pull a percentage of incoming parcels to verify HS codes and contents against the declared invoice. If yours gets pulled, expect 3–7 days extra at the gateway. Nothing you can do to avoid it; the only way through is paperwork that matches the parcel exactly. Under-declaring value or vague item descriptions guarantee a slow inspection. We document precisely so the parcel passes the first read.
I’m a Bhiwadi auto-component supplier sending samples to a Shenzhen buyer — what works?
Mechanical parts, fasteners, sample fixtures, technical drawings — set a recurring slot. Documents: commercial invoice with line-item HS codes, your GST and the buyer’s Chinese business registration on the AWB. Steer clear of GPS-equipped, encryption-enabled or telematics-bearing items even as samples — Chinese import controls catch these and the consignee bears the seizure cost. Pure mechanical samples and engineering drawings clear cleanly.
What absolutely should not go to China?
Politically sensitive printed material is the big one — books or media critical of the CCP, Tiananmen content, Falun Gong literature, Tibet/Taiwan/Xinjiang advocacy. Customs reads what comes through. Second category: encryption hardware, GPS modules, drones — Chinese tech-import controls catch these. Third: anything narcotic or counterfeit. The penalties are severe, and they fall on the consignee.
