EMS Shipping Fee

Still, EMS is charging a kind of special shipping surcharge (Covid fee) which makes EMS, not the cheapest option. After this additional surcharge, EMS is still a cheaper option for many countries compared to DHL, TNT, and FedEx.

Conclusion

We recommend trying EMS service now for those countries where EMS is cheaper than DHL or FedEx but there could be some delay issues as EMS is still not yet very stable. Its recommended not to try EMS for under-develop or developing countries since EMS mostly rely on local post offices and most of these countries post offices are not operating efficiently due to covid. Given the covid situation is improving and more and more countries are opening up their borders, we expect EMS shall be back to normal soon. EMS being back to normal is in favor of everyone as due to Covid all couriers are charging excessively and it's the biggest burden on anyone's business these days.
