Estimated 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, which can include an inland leg; spans over 120 days are left out. The middle half runs from the 25th to the 75th percentile.

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 Israel ocean freight

Measured from the carrier's container events instead of its estimates, the actual transit from China to Israel — loaded on board to a container discharged at the port of discharge, with no inland leg — has a median of 63 days (middle half 59–69 days, 90% within 76 days) across 50 shipments with a recorded discharge at the port of discharge.

Cargo on this lane loads mainly at China ports including Qingdao, Shanghai, Xingang and Xiamen and is discharged mainly at Ashdod and Haifa on the Israel side.

Every China-to-Israel 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 a status reports the shipment at its final destination, 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: 70% of 138 shipments with a planned routing to the port of discharge are planned via a transshipment port, most often Piraeus (97); 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 Israel?
The median estimated transit from China to Israel is 59 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 54 and 64 days and 90% at 75 days or less, across 208 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 Israel actually take?
The median actual transit from China to Israel is 63 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 59 and 69 days and 90% took 76 days or less, across 50 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 Israel shipments?
Cargo most often loads at Qingdao, Shanghai, Xingang and Xiamen. On arrival it is most often discharged at Ashdod and Haifa.
Is cargo from China to Israel shipped direct or transshipped?
In the carrier's planned routing at the time bexy read each Bill of Lading, 70% of the 138 China-to-Israel shipments with a planned routing to the port of discharge were planned via at least one transshipment port, most often Piraeus; the rest were planned direct from the port of loading to the port of discharge. A transshipment port here is a planned stop between those two ports that is not the place of receipt or delivery, and routings can change after booking.
How many shipments are tracked on the China to Israel route?
