The case of international mail from Portugal to Japan, which took 1.5 months to arrive.

The story of how it took 1.5 months to send documents from Portugal to Japan.

I sent the documents via CTT and thought it would take about two weeks to get them… But I was naive.

First of all, the dispatch was slow from Portugal.
It took two weeks to arrive at the relay point in Beijing. First of all, it took about four working days to ship?

Furthermore, 20 days in Beijing (Beijing)… No movement.

I wonder why it took so long… but when I checked, I found out that February in China is Spring Festival.
So… logistics also stops without fail…

The goods finally arrived in Japan about 10 days after the Chinese New Year was over and logistics began to move. From there, customs was cleared in one day and delivery was completed to the destination the next day.

I learnt the lesson that it is better to send international mail by express delivery (Correio Expresso) when you are in a hurry.
I was quite nervous because there was a deadline…

You can see a summary of the shipping procedure here.
