Shipping from China to Egypt
Shipping from China to Egypt runs through Alexandria, Port Said and Damietta — about 25–35 days by sea — with inland delivery to Cairo by road. Air freight takes 4–7 days into Cairo International. Egypt is one of Africa's largest importers of Chinese goods, so sailings are frequent.
Egypt's customs process has a modern gate: the ACID system (Advance Cargo Information Declaration) requires pre-registration of shipments before loading — miss it and cargo can't clear. DDP shipping from China to Egypt means we handle ACID, valuation, duties (typically 5–30% by HS) and 14% VAT — one all-in price. WhatsApp us for today's rate.
