What You Need to Know Before You Import Furniture from China to India
Here are some actionable insights if you’re considering importing:
- Minimum Order Quantities (MOQ): Most factories require MOQs โ usually 20โ50 pieces per design. Sourcing companies like us negotiate flexibility when possible.
- Shipping Methods: LCL (Less than Container Load) is available, but FCL (Full Container Load) is more cost-effective for large projects.
- Duties & Taxes: Import duty for furniture can vary from 20%โ30% depending on material and category. We help you calculate landed cost upfront to avoid surprises.
- Lead Time: Average import time is 4โ6 weeks, including production, inspection, and shipping.
Real-World Example: Clubhouse Furniture for a Kolkata Builder
A premium builder in Kolkata was redesigning the clubhouse in one of their high-rise projects. They wanted modern, weather-resistant outdoor seating and a luxury bar setup โ but their local suppliers either quoted too high or lacked options.
We helped them import furniture from China to India under โน20L โ including lounge chairs, bar stools, poolside recliners, and cafรฉ tables. All items arrived in a single container, inspected, insured, and delivered on-site. They didnโt have to lift a finger.
