Import from China to Austria with a team on your side

Austria is landlocked, which means more steps between the factory and your warehouse. Having one team handle the supplier side and coordinate with the freight partner saves you a lot of back and forth.

    Within 5 to 10 days: vetted suppliers with prices, minimum orders, lead times and sample options.

    Order directly, or have us negotiate, inspect and coordinate shipping to you in Austria.

Good to know before importing into Austria

Adriatic ports are close

Koper and Trieste can offer a shorter route than the North Sea ports for goods coming through Suez.

Winter sports season

Order early for seasonal goods. Production and shipping need several months.

EU safety rules

Since December 2024, consumer products sold in Austria fall under the EU General Product Safety Regulation, with an EU responsible person and traceability details. We raise it with suppliers early.

Questions from Austria

Which port is best for Vienna?

It depends on the carrier. We compare Koper, Trieste and Hamburg.

Can you source ski and outdoor gear?

Yes, as long as the product is not on our excluded list.

How much does a sourcing report cost?

A flat research fee covers one product, and each additional product is quoted as an add-on. The exact amount is confirmed before we begin.

Is there a minimum order?

No. You can start with a single product in any quantity. The research fee remains the same.
