Loaded on board → container discharged at the port of discharge, from the carrier's container events: actual dates, not estimates. It has no inland leg, so it is not directly comparable with the estimate, and it rests on fewer shipments because most Bills of Lading are read after the container has been returned empty.

China to Dominican Republic ocean freight

Measured from the carrier's container events instead of its estimates, the actual transit from China to Dominican Republic — loaded on board to a container discharged at the port of discharge, with no inland leg — has a median of 62 days (middle half 47–75 days, 90% within 89 days) across 113 shipments with a recorded discharge at the port of discharge.

Cargo on this lane loads mainly at China ports including Shanghai, Qingdao, Xiamen and Xingang and is discharged mainly at Rio Haina and Caucedo on the Dominican Republic side.

Every China-to-Dominican Republic shipment here travels on an Evergreen (EGLV) Bill of Lading and is read from the carrier's own tracking record: vessel, voyage, port milestones and per-container status, re-checked after the estimated arrival (the ETA, or the last planned arrival when there is none) until arrival, for up to 30 days — free, and without an account.

Share is of this lane's shipments that record both ports. Planned port-to-port is the median (and middle half) from the loaded-on-board date to the first planned arrival at the port of discharge in the carrier's routing — no inland leg, unlike the transit time above — shown when at least 20 shipments have both dates; n is how many of the pair's shipments it rests on.

Planned routing: 62% of 99 shipments with a planned routing to the port of discharge are planned via a transshipment port, most often Colon Container Terminal (61), Balboa (3), Qingdao (3); the rest are planned direct from the port of loading to the port of discharge. This is the carrier's planned routing when bexy read each Bill of Lading, and it can change after booking.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to ship from China to Dominican Republic?
The median estimated transit from China to Dominican Republic is 47 days, measured from the loaded-on-board date to the carrier's ETA at the final place of delivery, or the last planned arrival when the carrier gives none; half of shipments were estimated at between 40 and 58 days and 90% at 75 days or less, across 206 shipments with a usable on-board date and estimated arrival. The exact time depends on the service, any transshipment and any inland leg to the final destination.
How long does shipping from China to Dominican Republic actually take?
The median actual transit from China to Dominican Republic is 62 days, measured from the loaded-on-board date to the day a container was discharged at the port of discharge, as reported in the carrier's container events; half of these shipments took between 47 and 75 days and 90% took 89 days or less, across 113 shipments with a recorded discharge at the port of discharge. Unlike the estimated transit it ends at the port of discharge, with no inland leg, and it rests on fewer shipments: for most Bills of Lading bexy first reads the record after the container has been returned empty, when the discharge is no longer shown.
Which ports handle China to Dominican Republic shipments?
Cargo most often loads at Shanghai, Qingdao, Xiamen and Xingang. On arrival it is most often discharged at Rio Haina and Caucedo.
Is cargo from China to Dominican Republic shipped direct or transshipped?
