Ship Your 1688 Packages with GoNest: FAQs
Do I need to handle customs duties?
If you choose the DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) line, you do not need to deal with customs duties. We will handle everything for you—all you need to do is wait for the package to arrive at your doorstep.
Does GoNest offer insurance services? How does compensation work?
Yes, GoNest provides insurance services. Compensation is handled according to the terms of the insurance. For example, if your package is lost during transit or unfortunately seized by customs, you may be eligible for full reimbursement up to the insured amount. If you purchased insurance coverage of 1000 RMB, you can receive compensation of up to 1000 RMB. Please refer to the insurance policy details for specific terms.
Will there be any additional fees?
Our shipping fees are all-inclusive. If there are any extra charges required, we will inform you before shipping your package. All charges are fully transparent—there are no hidden fees.
Why do I need to pay shipping twice?
After you pay the initial shipping fee on GoNest, a second payment may be required because we use a pay-adjustment system. In simple terms:
- The first payment is a pre-estimated shipping fee.
- The final shipping fee is calculated after your package is fully packed.
- If the final fee is lower than the estimate, we will refund the difference.
- If the final fee is higher than the estimate, you will need to pay the remaining balance.
