Mattress Shipping Cost from Chengdu to Stockholm

There are several shipping options available from China to Sweden, including Sea 20GP: $1,597 to $1,952 to $5,000 for a $2,587 to $3,162 (40GP) container. Air freight costs are generally $4 to $6 per kilogram, while express shipping ranges from $5 to $10 per kilogram.

Step 4: Estimate your tax liability for importing goods from China to Sweden. Sweden customs will apply a 25% value-added tax, for foodstuffs, it is 12%(not including alcoholic beverages and tobacco) and for magazines and books it is 6% based on the value of your merchandise.

Shipping from China varies wildly, from a few dollars for small items via postal service (like USPS Priority Mail Express International from $30+) to $2,000-$6,000+ for full containers (FCL) by sea, while air freight usually costs $3-$8+ per kilogram; prices depend heavily on weight, size, speed (air vs. sea), and chosen carrier ( DHL, FedEx, UPS, EMS, freight forwarders). For small parcels, express couriers are faster but pricier, while standard air freight (150-500kg) or LCL (less than container load) sea freight offer better per-kilo rates for larger shipments.
