Air freight to the Philippines

Five to seven days from our China warehouse to Manila, billed per kilo from ₱400, minimum 1 kg. For samples, restocks and anything that cannot wait for a vessel.

Rates per kilogram

Ordinary goods ₱400–₱490/kg. Sensitive — liquids, powders, food, powerbanks — ₱490–₱600. Gadgets — laptops, tablets, smartphones — ₱650–₱750. The rate falls as weight rises across four tiers; full grid on the rates page. From South Korea, regular cargo runs ₱775–₱850/kg and medical supplies ₱925–₱1,000.

When air is the right call

Samples, always. Never commit to a bulk order on photographs — get the sample by air, check quality and true packed weight, then ship the bulk by sea. The cost of one air sample is trivial against a container of the wrong thing.

Restocking a seller. When a line is moving and you are about to stock out, three weeks of sea freight costs more in lost sales than air costs in freight.

Small, dense, high-value. Below roughly 0.01 CBM the economics of sea stop working. Decision framework: sea vs air.

What you cannot send by air

Batteries, liquids, powders and aerosols are restricted or need special handling — powerbanks and anything lithium especially. Tell us before booking; declaring them late is how shipments get held. Full list: what you cannot import.
