Transportation Plans
Bofeng Logistics offers multiple transportation plans from Tangshan to Hong Kong

After consolidation and customs clearance at the transfer warehouse, goods are transferred to cross-border trucks to enter Hong Kong through the port and are delivered to the designated location. The door-to-door transit time is approximately 5-8 days.
Sea Direct: Goods are shipped directly by sea from the nearest port (Tianjin Port) to Hong Kong Port. Upon arrival at the port, goods are picked up and delivered to the designated location.
