In recent years, e-commerce and fashion consumption in Poland have grown rapidly, and the container volume at Gdansk Port has been consistently increasing. But exporters who work on this line will gradually find that Polish customs belong to the category with more rules and detailed enforcement in the EU - EORI is not bound to Polish NIP, and declarations cannot be submitted; The invoice is not signed by both the buyer and seller, and the system returns it directly; The fiber composition was written as "cotton" instead of "bawe ł na" in Polish, and UOKiK came to the door requesting rectification; In March 2026, textiles will also have SENT electronic supervision, and those with a gross weight exceeding 10 kilograms will have to declare in advance. These things seem trivial, and if one cabinet is missing, they will have to be suppressed in Gdansk. We specialize in this line, loading containers in Guangzhou, Dongguan, and Shenzhen, using full container load (FCL) and less than container load (LCL) methods to clear these checkpoints one by one before loading.
1、 Shipping prices and delivery time of bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Poland
1. Shenzhen to Poland brand bags, jerseys, sea freight prices, timeliness
Departing from Yantian in Shenzhen, Nansha in Guangzhou, or Dongguan Port, the sea journey directly to Gdansk or Gdynia Port takes about 25-35 days. Door to door delivery for the entire container takes about 35-50 days (including customs clearance and delivery), and LCL takes about 40-55 days. Polish customs use the E-CELINA electronic customs clearance system, which takes 2-5 days for normal clearance. During the peak season from June to September, cabin availability may be tight, so booking 3-4 weeks in advance is more relaxed. The quoted price includes all costs, including sea freight, domestic trailer customs clearance, Polish customs clearance, customs duties, 23% value-added tax, and final delivery. It should be calculated clearly before signing the contract and no additional charges will be incurred thereafter.
2. Tax and fee structure for shipping bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Poland
The tariff for clothing and textiles (HS Chapters 61-62) is about 12%, and for footwear it is 8% -17%, calculated based on CIF value. The standard VAT rate is 23%, calculated as (CIF price+customs duty) x 23%. Poland does not have a tariff threshold, and all imported goods, regardless of their value, are subject to tariffs and a 23% VAT. Starting from July 1, 2026, the EU will cancel the tariff exemption for packages below 150 euros, and low value packages will be subject to a fixed tariff of 3 euros per product category - multiple items of the same category will only be charged once, and different categories will be taxed separately. Packages with a value not exceeding 45 euros are still exempt from customs duties and value-added tax. Importers holding Polish VAT numbers can apply for VAT deferral, with a deduction of 23% for non payment during customs clearance and quarterly declaration.
Starting from March 17, 2026, clothing and textiles will be included in the SENT Road Transport Electronic Supervision System. Knitted and non knitted clothing with a gross weight exceeding 10 kilograms must complete SENT declaration on the PUESC platform in advance (the threshold will be raised to 31.5 kilograms from June 20, 2026). This is a unique textile transportation regulatory requirement in Poland, don't miss it.
2、 Customs clearance documents and procedures for shipping bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Poland
EORI is a hard threshold. The Polish EORI format is "PL"+NIP tax number+five zeros. If the declared value is 22 euros or more, the recipient's EORI code must be provided in the invoice. Without a code, customs clearance is not possible. Before shipment, it is necessary to confirm that the status is valid, otherwise the E-CELINA system cannot accept the declaration. Starting from July 1, 2026, B2B shipments are no longer subject to simplified customs clearance procedures (H7) and must submit a standard complete customs declaration (H1). The scope of information required by customs has been further expanded.
2. Commercial invoices must be signed by both parties. This is a special requirement that distinguishes Poland from most EU countries. The invoice must indicate the HS code (Chapters 61-62), CIF value, complete product description (general terms such as "clothing batch" are prohibited), brand, trade terms, and country of origin "Made in China", and must be signed by both the buyer and seller. Unsigned invoices will be directly returned by the customs system.
3. Polish labels are mandatory. The label must indicate the fiber composition in Polish and use the Polish fiber name - cannot use "cotton", must write "bawe ł na"; Cannot use 'polyester', must write 'police'. Sort in descending order by weight, the labels must be durable, sturdy, and clear to read. The Polish Competition and Consumer Protection Agency (UOKiK) has questioned multiple batches of products using foreign language fiber names in market regulation. The label must also indicate the country of origin "Made in China", care instructions, and manufacturer/importer information.
4. Brand authorization is closely monitored. Polish customs have the right to voluntarily detain suspected infringing goods, even if the customs protection application has not been submitted or approved, in accordance with their authority. The detention period is 10 working days (extendable). The rights holder must submit an action application through the PUESC electronic service platform. Brand bags and brand jerseys must be accompanied by a brand authorization letter, which clearly includes the Poland/EU region.
5. Customs clearance process: Confirm EORI/VAT (before shipment) → Document pre review (during transportation, label Polish verification, invoice signed and confirmed by both parties) → E-CELINA electronic declaration (before arrival) → SENT declaration (if applicable, PUESC platform) → Customs price inspection (2-5 days, inspection reserved for 5-7 days) → Tax payment release (VAT deferral can be applied for) → End delivery (throughout Warsaw, Krakow, Łó d ź, Gdansk).
6. Customs clearance document list: original/electronic bill of lading, commercial invoice (must be signed by both parties, including EORI number, HS code, CIF value, country of origin), packing list, brand authorization letter, importer EORI and Polish VAT number, certificate of origin (if applicable), SENT declaration receipt (if applicable), wooden packaging fumigation certificate (if applicable).
3、 Precautions for shipping bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Poland by sea
1. EORI cannot be omitted. The Polish EORI format is "PL"+NIP tax number+five zeros, and declarations of 22 euros or more must be provided in the invoice. Starting from July 2026, B2B shipments must submit a standard and complete customs declaration form, with an expanded scope of documentation.
2. The invoice must be signed by both parties. This is a unique requirement in Poland, unsigned invoices will be directly returned and cannot enter the customs clearance process.
3. The label must be in Polish. The fiber composition should use Polish fiber names such as "bawe ł na" and "policester", not English. UOKiK is closely investigating this matter.
4. Don't miss the SENT declaration. Starting from March 17, 2026, textiles will be subject to SENT regulation, and those with a gross weight exceeding 10 kilograms must declare in advance on the PUESC platform.
5. Complete the brand authorization letter. Polish customs may voluntarily detain infringing goods based on their authority, with a detention period of 10 working days. The rights holder must submit an action application through PUESC.
6. Wooden packaging IPPC. Solid wood pallets and wooden boxes must undergo heat treatment, with a core temperature of 56 ℃ for at least 30 minutes, marked with IPPC, and the wood must be peeled. Suggest using plywood fumigation free pallets or plastic pallets.
7. Attention should also be paid to the outer box: the words "Made in China" should be affixed to each item or outer box. Textile goods sent to Poland must complete EPR registration and obtain the CONAI mark (outer box recycling mark). Missing the mark may result in the goods being seized, fined, or even destroyed.
4、 Shipping packaging requirements for bags and jerseys from Shenzhen to Poland
1. The value of branded bags and jerseys is not low. After drifting on the sea for more than 20 days and being transported inland in Europe, the packaging can withstand it. Inner packaging: Fold the dust bag of the jersey cover, put the brand dust bag in the bag, insert paper balls inside to support the bag shape, and do not damage the hang tag washing label. Filling and fixing: sufficient cushioning materials (foam, bubble film, pearl wool) shall be filled in the box, and goods shall not be shaken in the box. Outer box reinforcement: cardboard boxes, each box should not exceed 30kg, and each side should not exceed 150cm. The box should be sealed with a "H" shape and the adhesive tape should be ≥ 5cm. Wooden pallets must undergo IPPC heat treatment, and it is recommended to use plywood or plastic pallets directly without fumigation.
2. Special requirements for labels: indicate fiber composition in Polish, use Polish fiber names, and arrange them in descending order by weight; Origin "Made in China"; Nursing instructions must be clear and readable; Name and address of manufacturer/importer; Label the outer box with specific product names; Fragile items are labeled as "FRAGILE", and desiccants are placed inside the box to prevent moisture.
