WooliiPorter is a parcel forwarding and consolidation service for shoppers in Czechia forwarding Taobao, 1688, JD and other Chinese marketplace orders to a Czech address. You get a free China warehouse address; you pre-alert each seller parcel, we photograph it on arrival and store it free with no time limit, and when you choose which arrived parcels to ship together we consolidate them, quote international shipping from the packed box and forward the shipment to Czechia.

What package forwarding is, and how it differs from a shopping agent
How it works
1
Buy from the seller yourself
Place your order directly with Taobao, 1688, JD, WeChat sellers, or other Chinese stores and pay the seller yourself — this forwarding workflow does not buy goods for you. (Personal accounts can use the separate WooliiPorter buying service at /services/daigou if they want the store order placed for them.)
2
Use your China warehouse address
Enter your WooliiPorter warehouse recipient, phone, address, and postal code as the domestic delivery address in China. Copy the details exactly from your dashboard.
3
Pre-alert parcels and follow their arrival
After sellers ship, use Pre-alert parcels to add each China domestic tracking number with the product name, quantity and value. Arrived parcels are photographed and wait in My Parcels, with free storage and no time limit.
4
Choose parcels, consolidate and ship
Tick the arrived parcels you want to ship together and submit one shipment. The warehouse packs them and quotes the packed box; nothing is charged before that. Pay for dispatch to Czechia. Czech deliveries need the street with its house number (číslo popisné and/or orientační), the five-digit postcode written 123 45, the town and a reachable mobile number.

What should I prepare for my first shipment to Czechia?
The seller has not shipped yet
Create and verify your account, then copy the assigned China warehouse address from your dashboard. Pre-alert each parcel once the seller provides its domestic tracking number. A store order number is different; do not invent a tracking number to submit a pre-alert.
You have a domestic tracking number
Confirm that the seller is sending to your assigned China address. Enter each domestic parcel and its actual contents, and prepare the overseas recipient address. Sellers may split one purchase into several parcels.
You need help buying
Forwarding pre-alerts are for purchases you make yourself. If you need someone to place and pay for the store order, check the separate buying service and its quote first.
Check personal buying supportWhich costs should I check beyond international freight?
Check the goods price, seller-to-warehouse shipping, requested warehouse services, international freight, and any import tax, duty or carrier clearance fee. You normally pay the seller for the goods and domestic delivery. Review the actual order quote for warehouse services and international shipping; a calculator estimate alone is not the complete landed cost.
For example, if two sellers each send one item, pre-alert the domestic parcels separately. After they arrive, choose whether to ship them together; compare one consolidated carton with separate shipments using the final dimensions and the greater of actual and volumetric weight. Adding the weights from the domestic labels does not establish the international chargeable weight.
Why buyers in Czechia use a China warehouse
Many Chinese sellers only support domestic delivery inside China. A forwarding warehouse gives you a usable China address, then turns domestic seller parcels into one international shipment to Czechia. Common uses include clothing and footwear, phone accessories, hobby supplies, collectibles and home goods.
Shipping and packing tips for Czechia
For Czechia, consolidate compatible parcels to avoid paying a separate international minimum on each, and describe each item clearly because the low-value duty is charged per item.
Customs and declaration basics
The Czech Customs Administration (Celní správa) charges VAT on goods ordered from outside the EU and, since 1 July 2026, a €3 customs duty per item for consignments up to €150. Private individuals can declare such parcels themselves, for example through the eCeP app. WooliiPorter can help organize parcel information for forwarding, but you are responsible for ensuring goods are legal to export from China and import into Czechia.
VAT on almost every non-EU parcel
Celní správa states that VAT, usually 21%, is due on goods ordered from outside the EU, with an exception only for genuine gifts of low value. The €150 threshold for the new €3 per-item duty is based on the goods' own value, while VAT is calculated on the total including shipping. Guidance reviewed 25 October 2026.
Declaring a parcel yourself
Private individuals can declare parcels from non-IOSS sellers themselves, for example with the official eCeP app, which cannot be used for IOSS parcels, gifts between individuals or business goods. A domestic Chinese purchase forwarded abroad should be treated as non-IOSS.
How consolidation can reduce cost
Shipping parcels one by one is often expensive. Combining packages into one shipment and removing unnecessary packaging can reduce volumetric weight and lower the final chargeable weight. This matters most for light but bulky goods such as shoes, plush toys, storage boxes, home goods, and seller cartons with excess filler.
What WooliiPorter does and does not do
In this forwarding workflow, you place and pay for the store order. WooliiPorter receives, records, consolidates, repacks and forwards your parcels. If you need help purchasing supported products, use the separate personal buying service and confirm its quote and platform eligibility first.
Before shipping to Czechia
- Provide the street and house number, postcode in 123 45 format, town and a reachable mobile number.
- Keep seller order and payment evidence for the customs declaration.
- Declare each product with a specific name, quantity and real value.

Frequently asked questions
Is WooliiPorter a parcel forwarding service or a shopping agent?
WooliiPorter's core service is parcel forwarding and consolidation: you buy from the seller yourself, ship to your WooliiPorter China warehouse address, and WooliiPorter receives, consolidates and ships the parcels to Czechia. People also call this a China shipping agent, a forwarding address or a consolidation service. Buying on your behalf (a shopping agent or daigou) is a separate, optional WooliiPorter service.
Can WooliiPorter buy items from Chinese online stores for me?
This page describes self-purchase forwarding: you pay the seller, and WooliiPorter handles the parcels. A separate personal buying service is available for eligible products at /services/daigou. Check the supported platform, item quote and service fees there before paying.
Can I combine multiple parcels before shipping to Czechia?
Yes. Pre-alert each parcel; arrived parcels wait in My Parcels with free storage and no time limit, and you tick the ones to ship together to Czechia. The warehouse packs them and quotes the packed box.
How is shipping cost calculated?
Personal shipments are priced on the greater of the packed box's actual and volumetric weight, rounded up in 100 g steps, on the air-parcel service. Use the shipping calculator to estimate from currently enabled products and destinations; the final quote follows warehouse packing and measurement.
What do I pay on a parcel from China to Czechia?
Expect Czech VAT (usually 21%) on the goods and transport and, since 1 July 2026, a €3 customs duty per item for consignments up to €150, plus any carrier clearance fee. You can declare non-IOSS parcels yourself, for example through the eCeP app.
Are there item restrictions for Czechia?
Yes. Restrictions depend on item type and route. The Czech Customs Administration (Celní správa) charges VAT on goods ordered from outside the EU and, since 1 July 2026, a €3 customs duty per item for consignments up to €150. Private individuals can declare such parcels themselves, for example through the eCeP app. If your parcel includes batteries, liquids, powders, food, cosmetics, branded goods, or fragile items, create a support ticket before shipping.
Where do I get the China warehouse address?
Sign up for WooliiPorter and open your dashboard. Your warehouse address is shown there and should be copied exactly into the seller checkout page.
