How to ship from China to Greece

If you plan shipping from China to Greece, we make the process simple. At BAT, you don’t need to worry about everything. You only need to tell us what you are shipping, the volume or weight, and the delivery address in Greece. We handle the rest.

Most sea freight shipping from China to Greece arrives at Piraeus Port, the largest port in Greece and a main gateway to Southern Europe. Some cargo also goes to Thessaloniki Port, which serves northern Greece and the Balkan region. For air cargo, we mainly use Athens International Airport (ATH) and Thessaloniki Airport (SKG).

If your cargo is heavy or large, sea freight is usually the most cost-effective option for shipping from China to Greece.

If your cargo is over 15 CBM, FCL shipping from China to Greece is the best choice. Transit time is usually 30–40 days, depending on the port and sailing schedule.

LCL shipping from China to Greece is suitable for smaller shipments. We consolidate cargo regularly to Piraeus, so the sailing schedule is stable.

If you want a faster option than sea freight but still at a reasonable cost, many customers choose rail shipping from China to Greece. Door-to-door transit time is usually 23–30 days. This option is common for e-commerce goods, machinery parts, and time-sensitive cargo.

For urgent shipments, air freight shipping from China to Greece usually takes 6–9 days, depending on the route and flight schedule. For samples or small parcels, express shipping from China to Greece with DHL, UPS, or FedEx usually takes 2–4 working days.

From pickup at your supplier in China to final delivery in Greece, BAT handles the full process. This includes export customs clearance in China, import customs clearance in Greece, documents, duties, VAT, and local delivery. You work with one company. We manage everything.

We offer DDP shipping from China to Greece, as well as DAP and DDU options. Greece has strict VAT and customs rules, especially for batteries and commercial cargo. We handle these cases every day.
