The setting of logistics channels and freight templates commonly used for express sales
AliExpress is aimed at more than 200 countries around the world, and the freight template is extremely complicated for the following reasons:
1. The billing standards are complicated:
Different regions and countries have different weight stages, and the billing standards are different, and the freight is high. Different logistics channels, the freight rate is also very different.
2. The process is cumbersome
It involves a series of processes such as customs clearance, transportation time, mode of transportation, customs clearance, etc. If there is a problem with the details of a certain link, it may bring unnecessary trouble to customers, and the return, delay, loss of goods, etc., affecting the shopping experience;
3. Different timeliness
Different regions, different countries and channels have different timeliness. Those who are fast will sign for it in about 2 days, and those who are slow can not be delivered for up to several months.
Therefore, we need to have a general understanding of the characteristics of each logistics channel in order to select logistics channels and set up freight templates more accurately to achieve the goal of saving logistics costs.

II. How to set up a logistics freight template
1. Freight grouping according to freight quotation
Taking China Post's registered parcel as an example,
AliExpress downloads the quotation of China Post registered parcels in the background, deletes redundant rows and columns, and filters them to get the following table (depending on your own product situation, if it is in your own store, it is basically 300g-2000g, so the price in this stage is subject)
Freight combination 1: free shipping under 80 yuan/KG;
Freight combination 2: 80 yuan - 100 yuan/KG, the first weight is 1G + 1 US dollars, and each renewal weight is 300G + 1 US dollars;
Freight combination 3: 100 yuan-120 yuan/KG, the first weight is 1G + 2 US dollars, for each renewal weight, 300G + 2 US dollars;
Freight combination 4: 120 yuan-130 yuan/KG and suspended countries, the first weight is 1G+3 US dollars, 300G+3 US dollars for each renewal weight.
The United States chooses E-mail, free shipping. China Post registered parcel, not recognized by the platform)
Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macao, choose SF Express free shipping. SF Express is fast and cheap)
2. Steps for setting up freight:
