What shipping methods are available for LED lighting from China?
Three primary methods: Sea freight (FCL/LCL) takes 25-40 days for orders over 1 CBM. Air freight takes 5-10 days for orders under 500kg. Express courier (DHL/UPS/FedEx) takes 3-7 days for samples under 30kg. Kingseng ships via all three.
What Incoterms should I use for LED imports?
FOB (Free On Board) is most common for first-time buyers. EXW gives you maximum control but requires handling Chinese export clearance. CIF includes shipping and insurance to your destination. Kingseng recommends FOB Shenzhen for first orders. For more on this topic, read our guide: How to Import from China: Shipping, Payment, and Logistics Guide.
