Where we source

We buy from the platforms importers in India can't access directly

1688, Taobao and the Yiwu market are China-domestic — Chinese-language, local payment, no international shipping. We bridge all of it.

Buy from 1688.com

Lowest factory-direct prices in bulk. We read and negotiate in Mandarin, pay via our China entity, receive at our Shenzhen hub, run QC, and forward to Nepal under one all-in bill.

Buy from Yiwu Market

Mixed-SKU small-commodity sourcing without large MOQs. Our Yiwu sourcing agents walk the market, sample, negotiate MOQ, and consolidate mixed SKUs into one Nepal-bound shipment.

Buy from Taobao

Variety and trend-spotting at low per-unit prices. We proxy-buy across multiple Taobao sellers, consolidate, and ship to Nepal under one bill.

Buy from Alibaba.com

English-speaking factory sourcing with Trade Assurance. We vet suppliers, consolidate, and give you one all-in landed-cost quote to your door in Nepal.

Send us your sourcing list

Share 1688, Taobao, Yiwu or Alibaba links — or just describe the product. We find vetted suppliers if you don't have one yet.

We negotiate in Mandarin

Our China team negotiates unit price and MOQ, requests samples, and pays the supplier via our local entity. No Chinese card or address needed.

QC and consolidate

Goods arrive at our Guangzhou & Yiwu hubs. We inspect, photograph, and consolidate multiple suppliers' SKUs into one shipment to cut freight.

Ship by sea or air

We quote sea or air and book the mode with the best landed cost. Battery, liquid and branded-goods compliance is vetted per shipment.

Customs cleared, delivered

We clear Indian customs (Bill of Entry) with honest HS-code declaration, pay Basic Customs Duty, Social Welfare Surcharge and IGST, and deliver to your door. One all-in bill, payable in INR.

Frequently asked questions

How do I import in bulk from China to India?+

Share your product links (1688, Taobao, Yiwu, Alibaba or AliExpress) with us. We negotiate price and MOQ with the supplier in Mandarin, pay via our China entity, QC and consolidate at our Guangzhou & Yiwu hubs, then ship to India by sea or air with customs handled — one all-in landed-cost quote covering goods, freight, duty and delivery.

Can I buy from 1688 if I'm in India?+

Yes. 1688 is China-domestic only (Chinese-language, Alipay-only, ships inside China). We read and negotiate in Mandarin, pay the supplier, receive at our Guangzhou & Yiwu warehouses, and forward to India under one bill — no Chinese card, address, or language needed.

What's the minimum order quantity?+

It varies by supplier — typically 100–1,000 pcs on 1688, and much lower at the Yiwu market where mixed-SKU sourcing is normal. As your sourcing agent we negotiate MOQ down and consolidate across suppliers so your first order stays manageable.

How much customs duty will I pay?+

India charges Basic Customs Duty (varies by HS code), a 10% Social Welfare Surcharge on the duty, and IGST (commonly 18%) on the duty-inclusive value. Some Chinese goods also carry anti-dumping duty. We declare honestly by HS code and include the full landed cost in your quote — confirm the exact rate for your product with us first.

Sea or air cargo — which should I pick?+

Air is faster (about a week) and suits light, high-value or urgent goods. Sea (LCL/FCL) is cheaper per kg and suits heavy or bulky orders, though slower. We quote both so you choose the best landed cost per shipment.

Can I pay in INR?+

Yes — INR via UPI, cards, NEFT/RTGS or bank transfer. We pay the supplier in China; you never need an international card or Chinese payment account.
