Shipping to Xingang (Tianjin port)
Xingang, meaning New Port, is the container port district of Tianjin in the Binhai New Area on the Bohai Sea. Ships for northern China berth here, and cargo is cleared in the port's bonded warehouses before moving on to Tianjin, Beijing or Hebei.
Practical tips. If the consignee can collect at the port itself or has a local forwarder, Xingang is usually the most direct option; for delivery inside Tianjin city, compare the Tianjin rate. Commercial importers need China Customs registration, and wooden packing must carry the ISPM 15 mark, which Chinese inspectors check closely.
The port is about 50 km from Tianjin city centre and 170 km from Beijing, and trucks need permits to enter Beijing, so delivery there takes extra planning.
Collect promptly to avoid port storage fees.
