As someone planning to ship goods from China to Finland in 2025, I want to know exactly what the shipping rates will look like. Based on current trends, rates vary depending on the shipping method, cargo volume, and delivery time.
- Shipping from China to Finland by sea remains the cheapest option, especially for large shipments. As of 2025, prices for a full 20ft container start from around $1,200 to $2,000, while a 40ft container can range from $2,200 to $3,500, depending on the port and season.
- Air freight, although faster, costs significantly more. Rates typically range from $4 to $7 per kg.
- Express shipping, like DHL or FedEx, can cost $8 to $12 per kg, but you receive the goods in just 2–5 days.
When I calculate my costs, I always compare price, speed, and service reliability. For non-urgent shipments, I choose sea freight. For urgent or high-value items, I pay extra for air or express shipping.
