How Long Does It Take to Ship from China to the USA?

One of the most common questions we hear is: “How long does shipping from China to the US actually take?”

The answer depends on your shipping method. Here’s a quick breakdown:

Sea freight (ocean shipping):

  • West Coast (Los Angeles, Long Beach): 14–20 days port-to-port
  • East Coast (New York, Savannah): 28–40 days port-to-port
  • Door-to-door (including customs): add 7–14 days

Air freight:

  • Standard air: 5–8 days door-to-door
  • Express (DHL/FedEx/UPS): 3–5 days

The real question isn’t just transit time — it’s total landed time. That includes factory pickup, export customs, ocean/air transit, US customs clearance, and final delivery to your warehouse or FBA.
