Shipping Apparel from Barcelona to Shenzhen via Ocean Freight

For moisture-sensitive Clothing & apparel, Use an inner plastic sleeve for each unit or bundle, then place items in double-wall boxes. Add Desiccant packs for longer or ocean shipments, and ensure cartons are securely sealed to keep out humidity and splashes.

Most Textiles can move in Standard dry containers or regular parcel cartons, as long as they are protected from moisture. For Fabric rolls, We recommend palletized or racked loading to prevent edge damage, and in humid lanes, adding moisture-control liners is advisable.

High-value Fashion products benefit from Minimal handling, barcoded labels, and use of cages to avoid Soiling. Instruct handlers to keep apparel off the floor, avoid rough surfaces, and not to Over-stack lightweight Clothing cartons.

Yes. Many countries require Correct HS codes and clear Fiber content, plus manufacturing origin on documents for clothing & textiles. Some trade agreements and quota systems still affect certain Textile categories, so review local regulations before exporting large volumes.

Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, and a bill of lading. Additionally, a certificate of origin may be necessary to comply with regulatory requirements in China, as well as any specific import permits for textiles.
