Production lead times and international shipping for your optical lens order
Plan your optical lens order with our estimated preparation and production times, freight options and dispatch process. Final arrangements are confirmed with your LensPT quotation or proforma invoice.
01 / Planning your order
Lead times begin when your deposit is received and confirmed, following agreement on the order specifications.
| Order type | Order scope | Estimated time |
|---|---|---|
| In-stock lenses | Small batches, approximately a few hundred pairs | Around 10 business days |
| Standard batch orders | Custom manufacturing and regular order volumes | 15–30 business days, depending on quantity |
| Standard mass production | Approximately 30,000 pairs of lenses | 30 calendar days |
Allow separately for transport. These estimates cover stock preparation or production. International transit and customs clearance take additional time. Business days and calendar days are identified separately in the table.
Custom molds, OEM/ODM private labeling, customized lens tinting and specialized multilayer coatings are quoted individually after review. The lead time confirmed for your order takes precedence over these estimates.
02 / Choosing your route
We arrange shipping according to order volume, destination, budget and required delivery date.
03 / What happens next
Lens specifications and the proforma invoice are agreed. Production or stock reservation begins after receipt and confirmation of the deposit.
The batch is checked against the confirmed lens specifications, surface finish and packaging requirements before dispatch.
Following quality clearance and final balance settlement, the order is dispatched using the agreed shipping method.
We provide shipment tracking or freight references, commercial invoices, packing lists and, for sea freight where applicable, bills of lading.
04 / Confirming the details
EXW, FOB, CIF and DDP arrangements can be discussed on request, subject to confirmation for your destination and order. Freight charges, the delivery point and responsibilities are agreed in the quotation or proforma invoice.
For a shipping quotation, send your lens specification, quantity, packaging requirements, destination country and delivery address or port. Include your preferred freight method or forwarder details.
