At Direct From China we import quality products from China for the South African market. Because most items are sourced to order and consolidated into a monthly shipment, please review the timeframes below before ordering.

Sea freight

Air freight

7–14 days

Shipments

Once a month

Order processing

Once your payment has cleared into our account, your order is processed within 2–5 business days (excluding weekends and public holidays). In-stock items are prepared for dispatch immediately; to-order items are allocated to the next monthly shipment.

Monthly shipment & order cut-off

We receive a consolidated shipment from China once a month. To secure space on a given shipment, your order must be placed and paid before the order cut-off — 10 days before that shipment departs. Orders placed after the cut-off roll over to the following month's shipment. You can see every upcoming shipment, its cut-off and its estimated arrival on our Shipping Schedule.

Delivery lead times

After a shipment departs China, estimated delivery lead times are:

Sea freight — 35 to 60 days (standard for most to-order items).
Air freight — 7 to 14 days (selected smaller / high-demand items).

Delays & customs

Delivery timeframes are estimates and may vary due to shipping schedules, customs clearance, or periods of high demand. While we aim to meet the original schedule, unforeseen circumstances may occasionally extend the delivery window. Should a material delay be expected, we will let you know at order confirmation and keep you updated.

In short: pay early enough to beat the monthly cut-off, then allow the lead time for your shipping method. We appreciate your patience and work hard to get your order to you as swiftly as possible.
