USA DDP FAQ

USA DDP questions

01What does a USA DDP quote normally include?+

For eligible cargo, the written scope may cover China pickup, origin handling, export formalities, international freight, U.S. customs coordination, agreed duties and final delivery. The quotation—not the term DDP alone—controls the actual scope.

02Does the service cover the entire United States?+

The confirmed service area is the 48 contiguous U.S. states. Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico are not included in this published scope.

03Why are the product description and declared value required?+

U.S. entry relies on accurate product identity, HTS classification, valuation and admissibility. Vague descriptions or unsupported values increase the risk of delay, reassessment and penalties.

04When is ISF required?+

For U.S.-bound ocean cargo, Import Security Filing is generally required before loading under CBP rules. The responsible importer or agent and filing data must be established before departure.

05Which cargo is refused or needs separate review?+

Liquids, powders, counterfeit goods, military items and dual-use items are not accepted. Food, medical products, chemicals and authorized branded goods require shipment-specific review. Battery-powered products remain under standard review but require accurate battery and transport information.
