International Courier & Air Freight Rate Rules: DHL/FedEx/UPS
Understanding the billing rules of international logistics is crucial for controlling shipping costs. BETTERluck Shipping provides transparent pricing information, helping you accurately calculate shipping expenses for your wholesale clothing shipments from Guangzhou to Finland. Below are the detailed billing rules for DHL, FedEx, UPS international couriers and international air freight (including Guangzhou-Finland direct routes).
1. DHL International Courier Billing Rules
Dimensional Weight Calculation (5000 Rule)
DHL calculates the shipping cost based on the greater of the actual weight and the dimensional weight. The dimensional weight (DW) is calculated using the 5000 rule, which is applicable to most international shipments, including clothing shipments to Finland.
Formula: Dimensional Weight (kg) = Length (cm) × Width (cm) × Height (cm) ÷ 5000
Example: A carton of clothing has a length of 60cm, width of 50cm, height of 40cm, and actual weight of 15kg. Dimensional weight = 60×50×40÷5000 = 24kg. Since 24kg > 15kg, the shipping cost will be calculated based on 24kg.
Single Package Size & Overweight/Oversize Surcharges
Standard Size Limits: For DHL shipments to Finland, the maximum weight of a single package is 70kg, and the maximum length is 120cm. The sum of length + width + height should not exceed 274cm.
Overweight Surcharge: If a single package weighs more than 70kg but does not exceed 150kg, an overweight surcharge of USD 80-150 per package will be applied, depending on the specific shipping route and season.
Oversize Surcharge: If the length of a single package exceeds 120cm but does not exceed 150cm, an oversize surcharge of USD 50-100 per package will be charged. If the length exceeds 150cm or the sum of length + width + height exceeds 274cm, additional surcharges will apply, and advance confirmation with DHL is required.
Over Girth Billing Rules
The girth of a package is calculated as 2×(width + height). For DHL shipments, if the girth + length exceeds 300cm, it is considered an over-girth package, and a surcharge of USD 100-200 per package will be applied. For clothing shipments to Finland, which are usually packed in regular cartons, over-girth issues are rare, but it is still necessary to pay attention to the packaging size when shipping large items such as winter coats or down jackets (in high demand for Finland's cold climate).
2. FedEx International Courier Billing Rules
Dimensional Weight Calculation (5000 Rule)
Similar to DHL, FedEx uses the 5000 rule to calculate dimensional weight for international shipments to Finland, and the shipping cost is based on the greater of the actual weight and dimensional weight.
Formula: Dimensional Weight (kg) = Length (cm) × Width (cm) × Height (cm) ÷ 5000
Note: For irregularly shaped packages, FedEx will calculate the dimensional weight based on the maximum length, width, and height of the package.
Single Package Size & Overweight/Oversize Surcharges
Standard Size Limits: The maximum weight of a single FedEx package to Finland is 68kg, the maximum length is 122cm, and the sum of length + width + height is no more than 274cm.
Overweight Surcharge: Packages weighing 68kg-150kg will incur an overweight surcharge of USD 75-140 per package. Packages exceeding 150kg require special arrangements and additional fees.
Oversize Surcharge: If the length exceeds 122cm but is within 152cm, the oversize surcharge is USD 60-95 per package. For packages with length over 152cm or sum of length + width + height over 274cm, a higher surcharge of USD 120-200 per package will be applied.
Over Girth Billing Rules
FedEx defines over-girth as when the girth (2×width + 2×height) + length exceeds 330cm. For such packages, a surcharge of USD 110-180 per package will be charged. When shipping bulk clothing to Finland (e.g., seasonal winter collections), it is recommended to split the shipment into multiple standard-sized packages to avoid over-girth surcharges.
3. UPS International Courier Billing Rules
Dimensional Weight Calculation (5000 Rule)
UPS also adopts the 5000 rule for dimensional weight calculation for international shipments to Finland, ensuring consistency with other major couriers.
Formula: Dimensional Weight (kg) = Length (cm) × Width (cm) × Height (cm) ÷ 5000
Special Note: For lightweight and bulky clothing items (such as sweaters, coats), the dimensional weight is often higher than the actual weight, so optimizing packaging (e.g., using vacuum packaging to reduce volume) can effectively reduce shipping costs.
Single Package Size & Overweight/Oversize Surcharges
Standard Size Limits: UPS allows a maximum weight of 70kg per package to Finland, with a maximum length of 150cm and a sum of length + width + height not exceeding 274cm.
Overweight Surcharge: Packages weighing 70kg-150kg will be charged an overweight surcharge of USD 85-160 per package. For packages over 150kg, UPS requires prior approval and provides customized shipping solutions.
Oversize Surcharge: If the length exceeds 150cm or the sum of length + width + height exceeds 274cm, an oversize surcharge of USD 70-130 per package will be applied. For extremely large packages, additional handling fees may be incurred.
Over Girth Billing Rules
UPS calculates girth as 2×(width + height). When girth + length exceeds 300cm, the package is classified as over-girth, and a surcharge of USD 90-170 per package is charged. BETTERluck Shipping's professional team will help you design reasonable packaging plans for shipments to Finland, avoiding unnecessary surcharges—especially for bulky winter clothing.
4. International Air Freight Billing Rules (6000 Rule)
For large quantities of wholesale clothing shipments (usually over 100kg) from Guangzhou to Finland, international air freight is a more cost-effective choice. Different from international couriers, air freight uses the 6000 rule to calculate dimensional weight. We offer two core air freight solutions: Guangzhou direct/transit to Finland, and Hong Kong to Finland.
Dimensional Weight Calculation (6000 Rule)
Formula: Dimensional Weight (kg) = Length (cm) × Width (cm) × Height (cm) ÷ 6000
Example: A pallet of clothing has a total volume of 300,000 cm³ (e.g., 100cm×50cm×60cm) and an actual weight of 40kg. Dimensional weight = 300000 ÷ 6000 = 50kg. The shipping cost will be calculated based on 50kg.
Advantage: The 6000 rule makes air freight more economical for bulky clothing items compared to couriers, as it results in a lower dimensional weight calculation.
Additional Air Freight Charges
In addition to the basic freight based on weight (actual or dimensional), international air freight to Finland may also include the following charges: fuel surcharge (adjusted monthly according to international oil prices), security surcharge (USD 2-5 per kg), terminal handling charge (THC, USD 30-80 per shipment), and customs clearance fee in Finland (varies based on shipment value, Finnish VAT is generally 24% for clothing). BETTERluck Shipping provides all-inclusive pricing, clearly listing all charges to avoid hidden costs. For Guangzhou Airport shipments, we also include local customs declaration fees in the package.
