In the fast-paced world of international trade, businesses seek efficient, cost-effective, and hassle-free shipping solutions to streamline their supply chain. DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping is one of the most convenient logistics services, ensuring that goods reach their destination with all duties, taxes, and customs formalities handled in advance. With DDP shipping, businesses can focus on their operations while logistics experts manage the complexities of global shipping.
What is DDP Shipping?
DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) is an international shipping term (Incoterm) where the seller takes full responsibility for delivering the goods to the buyer’s designated location, covering:
- Freight costs (air, sea, or rail transport)
- Customs clearance in both the export and import countries
- Import duties and taxes
- Last-mile delivery to the buyer’s address
With DDP shipping, businesses avoid unexpected costs, customs delays, and logistics headaches, making it an ideal choice for e-commerce sellers, manufacturers, and global importers.
