A Comprehensive Guide to Import and Export Shipping Freight Services into/from Beijing City

Beijing, the capital of China, is located in the northern part of the North China Plain. It is at the heart of the Bohai – Rim economic region, a crucial economic hub in northern China. Its strategic location not only makes it a political and cultural center but also endows it with a significant role in regional and international trade, connecting China with the rest of the world.

As a major economic center and a leading high – tech city in China, Beijing’s economy is diversified. It is mainly based on high – tech industries such as information technology, artificial intelligence, and biopharmaceuticals. Additionally, the financial services, cultural and creative industries, and high – end manufacturing also contribute significantly to its economic development.

Beijing has jurisdiction over 16 administrative regions, as shown in the following table:

Among them, Haidian District, home to Zhongguancun, one of the largest high – tech industrial parks in China, is a major source of high – tech products for export. A large number of companies engaged in software development, computer technology, and electronics manufacturing are concentrated here, making it a significant shipment source for high – value – added goods.

Daxing District, with the construction of the Beijing Daxing International Airport, has become a crucial transportation hub. The area also has large – scale industrial parks focusing on aviation – related industries, high – end manufacturing, and logistics. The preferential policies in the airport economic zone support the development of freight business, attracting many enterprises to set up operations here.

Although Beijing is an inland city, its international sea freight exports mainly go through Tianjin Xingang. Although Beijing does not have barge points directly connected to major water systems like the Yangtze River or Pearl River, through close cooperation with Tianjin Xingang, it can efficiently arrange cargo transshipment. Tianjin Xingang, located on the coast of the Bohai Sea, offers a wide range of shipping routes to destinations around the world. Beijing’s goods can be transported to Tianjin Xingang by land, and then be shipped globally, making full use of the port’s rich route resources.

Beijing is an aviation hub with two major international airports: Beijing Capital International Airport and Beijing Daxing International Airport. Beijing Capital International Airport is about 25 kilometers northeast of the urban area, while Beijing Daxing International Airport is about 46 kilometers south of the urban area. These airports are equipped with modern freight warehouses and advanced security inspection equipment. They operate a large number of daily flights, not only to major domestic cities but also to international destinations across the globe, with complete air freight capabilities.

Sea freight costs are calculated based on multiple factors. Transportation distance plays a significant role, as well as the cargo weight and volume. The bunker adjustment factor, which reflects the cost of fuel, and market fluctuations also impact the final price. For example, a long – distance shipment from Asia to Europe will be more expensive than a shorter – distance one within the same continent.

DHL Express calculates costs based on the weight, dimensions of the package, and the destination. They also consider factors like urgency and any special handling requirements.
