Importing a Perfume Vending Machine from China

How to Import a Perfume Vending Machine from China

To import a perfume vending machine from China, you normally need to confirm the machine model, payment system, language, logo, delivery address and shipping method. After the quotation and artwork are approved, the buyer pays the deposit and production begins.

For standard orders, production usually takes approximately 10–15 working days after the deposit, final configuration and artwork are confirmed.

For eligible destinations, Wehoo Vending mainly provides DDP door-to-door delivery. Under the agreed quotation, the buyer normally does not need to arrange import customs clearance, pay import charges separately or prepare customs documents.

Estimated transportation times are:

• Air freight: approximately 10–15 days
• Rail freight to selected European and US destinations: approximately 35 days
• Sea freight: approximately 50–55 days

The actual delivery time depends on the destination, shipping method, customs process and local delivery conditions.

What Should You Confirm Before Ordering?

Before placing an order, buyers should confirm the following information:

• Suitable model: P6, P8 or P10
• Number of perfume channels
• Payment method
• Whether Nayax is available in the destination country
• Wi-Fi or 4G requirements
• Customer-facing language
• Logo and appearance customization
• Perfume bottle compatibility
• Machine dimensions and power requirements
• Total door-to-door price
• Production and delivery time
• Warranty and spare-parts support

The payment system should be confirmed before ordering because Nayax availability depends on the country and local service coverage. Some South American countries and other markets may not be suitable for the standard Nayax configuration.

Buyers should also provide the complete delivery address and postcode so the shipping cost can be calculated accurately.

Production and Customization

For all standard models, production normally takes approximately 10–15 working days after the deposit, final configuration and artwork are confirmed.

The following options can usually be customized:

• Company logo
• Customer-facing language
• Screen content
• Acrylic front-surface design
• Acrylic colour
• Payment configuration

Logo customization is free for all models and normally does not require a minimum order quantity.

Language customization is usually completed quickly and normally does not affect the standard production schedule.

The acrylic front surface can be customized with a logo and colour. The standard cabinet colour is black. If another cabinet colour is required, a minimum order quantity may apply and the production time may be longer.

Once the artwork has been approved, it should not be changed. Any changes after final approval may affect the production process and delivery schedule.

Final Testing Before Shipment

Before shipment, the machine is tested by the factory engineer.

The main checks include:

• Machine start-up and normal operation
• Perfume dispensing function
• Screen and customer interface
• Lighting and main functions
• Nayax connection, where applicable
• Overall cabinet appearance

Before shipment, the buyer normally receives photos and a complete video of the finished machine.

The buyer can use the video to check whether the Nayax terminal is connected, whether the machine operates correctly, whether the screen and lighting work normally, and whether the finished appearance matches the approved design.

The final inspection is completed by the factory engineer. Third-party inspection is not included in the standard process.

Shipping and Door-to-Door Delivery

We mainly provide DDP door-to-door shipping for international orders.

For eligible destinations, our logistics partner can arrange international transportation, import customs clearance, import procedures and local delivery to the agreed address.

Under the agreed DDP quotation, the buyer normally does not need to pay import charges separately or prepare customs documents.

DDP service is mainly available for European countries, the United States, the United Arab Emirates, Canada and some Southeast Asian countries.

Some South American countries may not be suitable for the standard configuration because Nayax service is unavailable in those markets. The destination and payment configuration should be confirmed before quotation.

Estimated Transportation Times

These are estimated transportation times from dispatch. They are not guaranteed delivery dates. Public holidays, customs checks, port congestion, weather and local delivery conditions may affect the final delivery time.

The final shipping cost depends on the destination country and postcode, machine model, quantity, shipping method, delivery address, remote-area conditions and final packed size and weight.

For larger orders, FOB or EXW terms may also be available.

The relevant product and compliance documents can be provided with the shipment according to the agreed order and destination requirements.

Available documents may include:

• Commercial invoice
