About China EMS (ePacket)
China EMS (ePacket or EUB) is a standard shipping service provided by China Post in collaboration with the destination country's postal service. ePacket or EUB was specifically designed to cater to the growing demand for cost-effective and efficient international shipping solutions for e-commerce businesses, particularly those shipping low-weight packages.
ePacket
ePacket is a shipping method that was introduced by the Chinese postal service, China Post, in cooperation with various national postal services around the world. It is designed to facilitate international e-commerce by providing affordable and efficient shipping for small parcels weighing up to 2kg.
The ePacket service offers end-to-end tracking and delivery confirmation, which allows both the seller and the buyer to track the shipment's progress from origin to destination. The delivery time for ePacket varies depending on the destination country, but it typically takes between 7 and 20 business days.
One of the main advantages of ePacket is its cost-effectiveness. Compared to other international shipping methods, ePacket is relatively inexpensive, making it an attractive option for small businesses and individual sellers who need to ship products overseas.
