When shipping goods from China to Italy, I usually consider both cost and delivery time. Popular shipping routes typically go through key Chinese ports like Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Ningbo, and arrive at major Italian ports such as Genoa, La Spezia, or Venice. The sea route is ideal for large shipments due to better pricing, while for time-sensitive goods, I use air freight from airports like Shanghai Pudong (PVG) to Milan Malpensa (MXP). Real-time shipping from China to Italy tracking helps me keep an eye on my cargo.

The shipping from China to Italy price can vary a lot depending on the method (sea or air), weight, and urgency. For standard FCL (full container load) shipments, I get lower per-unit costs, while LCL or express shipping can be more flexible but pricier.
