From China
To Italy

The trade volume between China and Italy had been growing steadily, with China being one of Italy’s largest trading partners outside the European Union. Both countries have engaged in imports and exports across a wide range of goods.

Italy’s exports to China included machinery, automobiles, fashion and luxury goods, food products, and more. Conversely, China exported electronic products, machinery, textiles, and other goods to Italy.

The trade relations have also been accompanied by cultural and educational exchanges. Both countries have worked on promoting tourism, academic collaborations, and cultural events.

Besides trade, both countries have also shown interest in increasing investment and cooperation in various sectors. Chinese companies have invested in Italian industries such as fashion, automotive, and energy, while Italian companies have explored opportunities in China’s market.

China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has led to increased infrastructure and connectivity projects between the two countries, promoting economic ties. This initiative includes investments in sectors like transportation and energy.

There are different transportation methods between the two countries, and below are the following options.

Sea Freight:
Sea freight is cost-effective for larger shipments and bulk goods, and you can choose between Full Container Load (FCL) or Less than Container Load (LCL) based on shipment size. The transit time takes longer than other transportation services, so is suitable for non-urgent shipments. Goods can be shipped from Chinese ports to Italian ports such as Genoa (ITGOA), Venice (ITVCE), or Naples (ITNAP).

Railway Transportation:
This option involves rail transportation through the Trans-Eurasian railway network, which connects China to Europe. Faster than sea freight and more economical than air freight, so it has a good balance between cost and transit time.

Air Transportation:
Air freight services are used for transporting time-sensitive or high-value goods, which also offer door-to-door delivery and real-time tracking. The Most populat Italian airports are FCO – Leonardo da Vinci–Fiumicino Airport in Rome, MXP – Malpensa International Airport in Milan, VCE – Venice Marco Polo Airport in Venice.
