Can I use a China supplier for Etsy orders?
A China supplier can support an eligible business model. The important question is your role in the product and whether the listing meets Etsy’s current rules.
Make your product brief work across languages
Use pictures, measurable requirements and written approvals to reduce the gap between what you mean and what a supplier understands.
A packing checklist for your Etsy orders
An agreed packing instruction helps the warehouse distinguish your product variants, protect the goods and keep the presentation consistent.
What belongs in a China shipping quote?
Compare the complete handling and delivery scope. A headline freight price may not include all the work your order needs.
Set up a returns plan before an order goes wrong
Agree where a return goes, who approves it and what happens to the product before instructing your buyer to send anything.
