Dimensional Weight Calculation Standards for DHL/FedEx/UPS

When shipping wholesale clothing from China to Korea, the cost is often determined by "chargeable weight"—the greater of the actual weight or the dimensional weight. Dimensional weight accounts for the space a package occupies, which is crucial for light, bulky clothing items (e.g., down jackets, sweaters). Below are the official dimensional weight calculation standards for our partner carriers :

1. DHL Dimensional Weight Calculation

DHL calculates dimensional weight based on the volume of the package, with the following formula:

For measurements in centimeters (cm): Dimensional Weight (kg) = Length × Width × Height (cm³) ÷ 6,000
For measurements in inches (in): Dimensional Weight (lbs) = Length × Width × Height (in³) ÷ 166

The chargeable weight is the higher value between the actual weight and the calculated dimensional weight. For example, if a package of winter coats has an actual weight of 10 kg and dimensions 120cm × 80cm × 50cm, the dimensional weight is (120×80×50)÷6,000 = 80 kg. The chargeable weight will be 80 kg .

Note: DHL exempts domestic shipments under 1 pound or 1 cubic foot from dimensional weight rules, but this does not apply to international shipments to Korea.

2. FedEx Dimensional Weight Calculation

FedEx uses the same core formula as DHL for international shipments, with consistent divisors:

Centimeters: Dimensional Weight (kg) = Length × Width × Height (cm³) ÷ 6,000
Inches: Dimensional Weight (lbs) = Length × Width × Height (in³) ÷ 166

For FedEx Express International shipments to Korea, there is no minimum weight exemption for dimensional weight. Even lightweight items like summer dresses will be charged based on the higher of actual or dimensional weight. FedEx also offers a "dimensional weight calculator" on its official website to help you estimate costs in advance.

3. UPS Dimensional Weight Calculation

UPS follows the industry standard formula for international dimensional weight, with slight variations for specific services (e.g., UPS Worldwide Express):

Centimeters: Dimensional Weight (kg) = Length × Width × Height (cm³) ÷ 6,000
Inches: Dimensional Weight (lbs) = Length × Width × Height (in³) ÷ 166

A key note for UPS: For packages classified as "large packages" (see oversize rules below), the minimum chargeable weight is 40 kg per piece, even if the calculated weight is lower. This is important for bulk clothing shipments.

Overweight & Oversize Surcharges for DHL/FedEx/UPS

Wholesale clothing shipments often involve large quantities, making them prone to overweight or oversize surcharges. Below are the detailed rules for our partner carriers, including weight limits, size restrictions, and fee standards—critical for budgeting your China to Korea shipments .

1. DHL Overweight & Oversize Rules

Overweight Surcharges

Definition: A package is considered overweight if its chargeable weight (actual or dimensional) exceeds 68 kg per piece.
Surcharge: $120 per piece, plus the current monthly fuel surcharge (typically 10%-25%).
Special Requirement: Packages over 68 kg must be equipped with 9cm-high pallets (feet) to facilitate handling.

Oversize (Overlength) Surcharges

Definition: A package is considered oversize if any single side exceeds 118 cm.
Surcharge: $70 per piece, plus fuel surcharge.
Combined Overweight & Oversize: If a package is both overweight and oversize, only the higher overweight surcharge applies (no double fees).

Restrictions

For shipments to Korea, DHL may require prior confirmation for packages exceeding 68 kg or 118 cm in length. Packages with a single side over 270 cm or total dimensions (length+width+height) over 300 cm may be rejected or require special arrangements.

2. FedEx Overweight & Oversize Rules

Overweight Surcharges

Definition: FedEx uses actual weight (not chargeable weight) to determine overweight status. A package is overweight if its actual weight exceeds 30 kg per piece.
Surcharge: $90 per piece, plus fuel surcharge. For packages over 70 kg, surcharges increase to $180 per piece.

Oversize Surcharges

Definition: A package is oversize if any single side exceeds 107 cm, or total dimensions (length+width+height) exceed 165 cm.
Surcharge: $100 per piece for standard oversize (107cm < single side ≤274cm); $200 per piece for severe oversize (single side >274cm).
Special Packaging: Wooden crates without hinges or irregularly shaped packages (e.g., non-rectangular) may incur an additional 30% surcharge.

Restrictions

FedEx accepts packages to Korea with a maximum single-side length of 274 cm and total dimensions of 274 cm. Shipments over 90 kg or with a declared value over $700 require formal customs declaration.

3. UPS Overweight & Oversize Rules

Overweight Surcharges

Definition: UPS uses actual weight for overweight calculations. A package is overweight if its actual weight is ≥24 kg per piece.
Surcharge: $50 per piece for 24-70 kg; UPS generally rejects packages over 70 kg to Korea.

Oversize Surcharges

Level 1 Oversize: Applies if the longest side ≥118 cm, second-longest side ≥76 cm, or non-cardboard/irregular packaging. Surcharge: $35 per piece.
Level 2 Oversize (Large Packages): Applies if length + 2×width + 2×height ≥295 cm but ≤400 cm. Surcharge: $70 per piece, with a minimum chargeable weight of 40 kg per piece.

Restrictions

UPS rejects packages to Korea with a single side over 274 cm, total circumference (length + 2×width + 2×height) over 400 cm, or actual weight over 70 kg. Wooden crates are generally not accepted by UPS for international shipments.

Circumference Surcharge Rules for DHL/FedEx/UPS

Circumference (calculated as length + 2×width + 2×height for rectangular packages; for cylindrical packages, it is the diameter × π + length) is another key factor in international shipping costs. Different carriers have varying rules for circumference limits and surcharges when shipping to Korea :

1. DHL Circumference Rules

DHL does not impose specific circumference surcharges for shipments to Korea. Its pricing focuses primarily on single-side length and chargeable weight. Even if a package has a large circumference (e.g., a rolled bundle of fabric), as long as no single side exceeds 118 cm and the chargeable weight is under 68 kg, no additional surcharges apply. This makes DHL a cost-effective option for cylindrical or rolled clothing shipments.

2. FedEx Circumference Rules

FedEx calculates circumference for non-rectangular packages (e.g., tubes, rolls) and applies oversize surcharges based on the result:

Circumference ≤330 cm: No circumference surcharge (oversize status is determined by single-side length).
330 cm < Circumference ≤400 cm: Classified as severe oversize, with a surcharge of $200 per piece plus fuel surcharge.
Circumference >400 cm: Rejected or requires special freight arrangements.

For example, a rolled bundle of jeans with a length of 120 cm and diameter of 50 cm has a circumference of (50×3.14) + 120 = 277 cm—no circumference surcharge applies.

3. UPS Circumference Rules

UPS places significant emphasis on circumference for international shipments to Korea, with specific surcharges for large packages:

Circumference <295 cm: No circumference surcharge (check for oversize based on side lengths).
295 cm ≤ Circumference ≤400 cm: Classified as a large package, with a surcharge of $70 per piece plus fuel surcharge, and a minimum chargeable weight of 40 kg.
Circumference >400 cm: Rejected.

UPS also notes that cylindrical packages with a diameter exceeding 30 cm may be subject to additional handling fees, even if the circumference is within limits.
