How long does it take for the shipment from AliExpress (China) to arrive to USA and Canada?

The only embarrassing thing about AliExpress is the delivery term. No secret that you have to wait for about one month till your package arrives.


On the one hand, it takes too long. But on the other hand, think how much of your family budget the Chinese products save. One month is in most cases worth the economy. Moreover, the terms may vary depending on what delivery service the seller uses. Let’s check how long it takes for the shipment from AliExpress to arrive to the USA or Canada.

How to Track your Parcel


China Post

The Chinese sellers use this option most often. In most cases, customers receive the order shipped by China Post in 30 days. Sometimes it may take up to 2 months, but it doesn’t happen often (around 1/5 of all orders).

If it takes more than 2 months for the package to arrive, it means something might go wrong at the customs. Also, keep in mind that it is the Chinese New Year in February. At this time of the year, the Chinese workaholics take a break for 1 or 2 weeks. If you made your order in January or February, it is no wonder that your package can be stuck in the «traffic jam» in the post offices and the courier services.

Hongkong and Singapore Post

These services are faster than China Post. The customers normally receive their parcels within 15-45 days.

But usually, you are not able to choose among these standard shipping options. The seller uses them by default (depending on what option is cheaper and more convenient to them). Sometimes the sellers choose private companies they consider to be reliable.

You can always check what service is shipping your parcel on the order page in the logistics information (My Orders => View detail).

Here you can also find the tracking number that helps to track the parcel via Megabonus and the link to the standard parcel tracking service. Please keep in mind that in most cases it will be the link to the Chinese parcel tracking website, so using it you will be able to track the parcel inside China only.

Express shipping for an extra fee

In case you need to receive the product urgently, use an AliExpress offer – choose a large logistics company or AliExpress Standard Shipping. In both cases, it will be large courier services such as EMS, DHL, TNT and so on. No doubt, these services are reliable and fast. The delivery term is from 7 to 20 days, but it comes with a cost of $25 minimum.

Another nice thing about the express delivery is that the package arrives right to your door. It means that you don’t have to waste your time visiting the post office.

Of course, sometimes the packages are lost. Usually the customs services are to be blamed but a force majeure may also happen (Do you remember the «Cast away» movie? :)). Sometimes it is also a fault of the customer or the seller (for example, the incorrect address). But these cases are only 2–5% from the total number of the orders. Don’t hesitate to make an order! And remember it is better to do it in advance. And don’t forget to get maximum cash back on AliExpress and get a 4.91% (check the Loyalty program terms for more details) discount on any product.
