Foreign trade with China
Working with China requires precision, market understanding, and reliable contacts. We help companies build foreign trade operations so that all processes — from the initial inquiry to delivery — run smoothly and without unnecessary risks.
Foreign economic activity (FEA) refers to the import of products (materials, equipment, components, spare parts, etc.) from other countries with subsequent sale within the Russian Federation.
We take care of the entire cycle: we find verified manufacturers, conduct negotiations, prepare contracts, and support the goods at every stage, including logistics and customs clearance.
You gain transparency, control, and a partner who understands the details and knows how to work truly efficiently — both with China and with Russian businesses.

Key areas of cooperation with Chinese partners
Developing business with Chinese manufacturers requires a professional approach to logistics organization. We help build an efficient supply system taking into account the specifics of foreign trade activities between countries. Foreign trade services include full transaction support — from finding reliable suppliers to customs clearance and delivery of goods to the customer’s warehouse.
The Chinese market offers wide opportunities for importing various categories of goods. The most in-demand areas include electronics, equipment, textiles, construction materials, and auto parts.
Specialists of our company TTL ensure regular supplies from major industrial centers of China — Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Yiwu, Shanghai, and Beijing.
Cooperation with TTL is not limited to logistics and supply control. We also support clients with product certification issues and help prepare all required documents for customs clearance. This approach helps avoid border delays, minimize risks, and ensure smooth cargo movement.
Organization of cargo transportation from China
Goods are delivered from China using several transportation methods. The choice of the optimal option depends on shipment volume, delivery deadlines, and the client’s budget. Rail transportation is the most balanced solution for most types of cargo. Foreign trade shipments from China to Russia by rail take from 14 to 21 days and allow large volumes of goods to be transported at competitive rates.
The following routes are used for container shipments via border crossings:
- Zabaikalsk–Manzhouli.
- Naushki–Sükhbaatar.
- Grodekovo–Suifenhe.
Transportation of consolidated cargo from different regions of China is organized through consolidation warehouses, which helps optimize logistics costs. After the goods arrive in Russia, specialists handle customs clearance and delivery to the final destination.
It is worth noting: “According to the General Administration of Customs of China, trade turnover between Russia and China exceeded 200 billion USD in 2024, confirming the strong prospects for the development of trade relations between the two countries.”
Customs clearance of Chinese goods
Effective foreign trade activity (FTA) with China requires professional customs clearance. TTL provides expert support in preparing a complete set of documents for fast customs processing, including:
- Foreign trade contract
- Invoice with a detailed description of goods
- Packing list
- Certificates of conformity and declarations

Customs clearance of cargo from China involves nuances such as determining customs value and selecting the correct HS codes.

Our professional customs representatives help optimize payments in accordance with legislation, preventing penalties caused by documentation errors. With TTL, you receive reliable support at every stage, ensuring uninterrupted supply from China.
Advantages of working with a logistics operator
