mail package back to China concern.... I know this might be a really stupid question...:badpokerface: If i'm mailing a package back to China and write the address in Chinese character...will it go through? I do not have the English translation of the address and its my first time trying to mail something back to China with chinese address only. Fedex / UPS / Canada post? Thanks guys! |
all canada needs to know is that its going to China and maybe the province i think (when we mail items to china thats all that seems to be required by canada post / dhl) once it lands there its in the hands of chinese readers and they'll probably be like :fulloffuck: if all you wrote was english :P |
appropriate use of Jacky Chan picture there |

I would double check with Canada post before you mail anything. I'm sure they'll know. |

Write it in English and Chinese to be safe? |
write it in both languages just to be safe |
I've use canadapost before, and all i need to write in English is "china" I believe. There's a place in the airport that send package to china for cheap via EMS. Posted via RS Mobile |

Google Translate? |
I think all of the roads in china use the pinyin of the chinese word as the "english" name. Posted via RS Mobile |

just write the pinyin as well. i regularly mail things to asia. i always write the native character and english or pinyin. just native is fine though. |
ive sent a few things to china every few months characters and english is what i write. |

the English literacy rate in China is absolutely horrid, not to mention that a given pinyin can translate into like 5-10 different words. Or if you are a risk taker, you could go hybrid. Write the address in Chinese, except for the country. |
