Selling Internationally: Things to know
Sell Globally with Deliverzen
Deliverzen makes it easy to sell and ship your products internationally, helping you grow your brand worldwide. Here are a few key things to keep in mind when shipping internationally:
1. Shipping Costs
International shipping costs can vary significantly, so it’s important to charge your customers the correct amount. This ensures you don’t end up paying more for shipping than you’re charging.
2. Dimensional Weight
Most international carriers use the dimensional weight to calculate shipping costs. Here’s how it works:
- Multiply the width, height, and length of your product.
- Divide the result by the carrier’s dimensional weight factor.
The carrier will charge you based on the higher of the two—either the actual weight or the dimensional weight.
3. Delivery Times
International shipping can take longer than domestic shipping, especially with economy carriers. Be sure to set clear expectations with your customers about delivery times. You can also offer expedited shipping options for customers who need their products faster.
What is DDP?
Deliverzen uses DDP (Delivered Duty Paid), which means all duties, taxes, and shipping costs are included in the price your customers pay. This ensures a smooth and hassle-free experience for your customers, as they won’t face any unexpected fees when their order arrives.
With Deliverzen, you can focus on growing your business while we handle the complexities of international shipping.
