The actual timeline from ordering to receiving your order at GTA.

  • Weeks 1–2: Confirm supplier, samples, and contract
  • Weeks 3–6: Production (depending on volume)
  • Week 7: QA inspection + preparation of export documents + C/O Form VN
  • Weeks 8–9: Packing, export, and loading onto the ship at HCM or Hai Phong port
  • Weeks 11–13: Sea transit (20–35 days)
  • Weeks 13–14: CBSA customs clearance + GTA delivery

Total: approximately 12–14 weeks from order placement to delivery. Plan early, especially for Christmas or Back-to-School orders — shipments need to be made at least 16 weeks in advance.
