China Post EMS is renowned for its wide coverage, affordable rates, and commitment to timely delivery.

China Post EMS Delivery Time

Although generally faster than other national postal delivery times, China Post EMS shipping times vary because multiple handlers are involved in the cross-border delivery of goods.

However, China Post EMS usually delivers to the USA and Europe in around 5 to 15 working days, or more if to other, more rural destinations. China Post EMS does offer delivery in as little as 2 to 5 working days in Asia, however, the remoteness of the destination can impact this delivery time significantly.
