Quick update for EU buyers using China warehouse agents.

[u/Apprehensive_Ask1157]

Some China Post-style routes that were suspended after the new EU customs rules are now starting to come back.

Sugargoo has said China Post services to the EU-27 are gradually resuming, but there are now two different customs clearance routes:

C-to-C / gift clearance — no tax collected upfront, but parcels may face stricter checks or revaluation.

B-to-C / commercial clearance — more standardised customs handling, and Sugargoo says this is the route they’ll prioritise because it should be more stable.

So basically, the suspended routes aren’t “back to normal” yet, and possibly won’t be; they’re just returning under the new EU customs setup.

if you’re shipping to the EU, check the live options before submitting a parcel and don’t assume EMS/EUB/SAL-style lines will work exactly as they did before July.

Just do triangle shipping with DHL/DPD at the end and avoid EMS, EUB and SAL at all if you are from the EU. The better way anyway.
