For cross-border e-commerce sellers who often do dropshipping from overseas warehouses and use US USPS at the end of the tail, they are no strangers to US USPS, and many powerful sellers will also have their own USPS accounts.
What is USPS in the United States?USPS USPS
USPS is the United States Postal Service, which is currently the largest express delivery agency in the United States, and its commonly used routes are divided into two types: outside the United States and within the United States.
1. Routes outside the United States, namely USPS international express, are:
usps priority mail express international
usps priority mail international
Generally, the USPS line selected by sellers from domestic to the United States is the international line.
2. There are two scenarios for USPS delivery on lines in the United States:
U.S. overseas warehouse on behalf of USPS face orders.
Cross-border sellers obtain account management permissions from overseas warehouses and place orders and paste USPS face orders by themselves.
Because generally USPS does not have a large amount of authorization to the outside world, it can manage orders privately, even if it is an authorized undertaker, there are requirements for its review, so even if you are a cross-border e-commerce seller with a large volume, you may not be able to have USPS order authorization. That's why there will be publicity on the market, such as USPS discount cooperation and ordering.
