In recent years, the expressions “Amazon package” and “Shein cart” have become known in Cuba. Although multinationals do not work on the island, it is increasingly common to see people on the streets wearing the Chinese company’s clothing or some of the giant’s essentials from A to Z. Shipments were normally made to through the so-called “mules” or a family member who “did the favor”, so they were not constant or safe. Until now.
As you may know, on the DimeCuba website, security services are available. food deliveriesof parcelof Medical insuranceof cheap flightsof refills and of Car rental. You also find options to buy in stores with a presence in the United States (such as The Home Depot or Best Buy).
DimeCuba has launched two new lines of parcel shipping services to the island through which it is possible to buy items in amazon and on Shein.
Amazon is one of the largest corporations in the world and is the third that generated the most revenue on the planet in 2023. Shein is a company of Chinese origin founded in 2008 that has a presence in more than 220 countries. It is characterized by its variety of clothing, affordable prices and fashionable designs.
You or your family can select the products you want from both companies through the DimeCuba website. This is a great advantage because you don’t have to go to official sites to buy. Simply by entering the product you want in the search engine, the different options will appear.
The DimeCuba offer can be a great opportunity to purchase products that are very expensive on the island or that cannot be found. Among the most purchased objects—as recorded on the DimeCuba website—are power plants, fans, televisions and washing machines.
Where do you send your order? Well, to any of the provinces of Cuba.
When placing the order, the page asks you to enter an address. You have two options from there: choose air or sea shipping. Air shipping is faster, the products will arrive at their destination between ten and 15 days from the time they arrive at the DimeCuba warehouses. The sea route is cheaper, but the wait ranges between 30 and 45 days.
We recommend that, before making the payment, consult the customs regulations in force in Cuba. Although there are no restrictions with most products, it is advisable not to send goods that need refrigeration, industrial or commercial products (see Annex I and II of the Customs Law), weapons or supplies that can be used for espionage, to mention some.
DimeCuba will review the characteristics of the package to verify that it meets the requirements. However, the company will not open the box containing the order.
If your goal is to send food through the Amazon Fresh supermarket, fresh meats, vegetables, and fruits would spoil before reaching the island, making them unsafe for consumption. It is best to send canned goods, dry or non-perishable products.
In case there is a problem and the shipment is delayed, DimeCuba will contact you to clarify the situation. If the delivery could not be made, DimeCuba will refund your money in full.
We recommend that you follow the company’s social networks because new purchasing options will soon open and your family will be able to access products from companies such as Costco, Ikea, Walmart and Temu.
