Nobody can say that the development of the Xiaomi Brand in recent years has been brutal: few people do not have any of their devices at home: cell phones, vacuum cleaners, speakers, scooters, smart TVs, devices to dominate your home. But this huge surge in popularity has a negative part: the appearance of Xiaomi fakes.
In order to avoid complications, in this article we will talk about the official Xiaomi store on AliExpress and the rest of the official distributors that you can find.
This is the only Official Xiaomi SHOP on AliExpress
On AliExpress you can find many stores that sell Xiaomi devices, but only this is the official one of the brand. When buying from the official store, make sure that you are doing this directly to the Xiaomi brand.
Ships from China
Remember that deliveries from the official Xiaomi shop are made direct from China, so items with a value of $ 150 or less already include VAT and you don’t have to worry about anything. On the other hand, VAT is not included for devices over $ 150 so (although this is not common) you will have to pay the appropriate taxes (VAT and duties) when customs hold your order.
Smartphone specialty
In the official store you will find both Xiaomi Mi phones from its main brand and two of its cheaper secondary brands, but of the same quality and features: Redmi and Poco.
Although they also have other smart devices (see here), the variety (including smartphones) is not very great and we are also surprised that they do not have many of their most popular devices such as vacuum cleaners, scooters, speakers … Hence, we will see other stores where you can just as safely buy Xiaomi items without being their official store.
Authorized dealers
Although there is only one official Xiaomi store on AliExpress, this does not mean that it is unsafe to buy products of this brand in other stores: there are many stores that are authorized distributors of the brand and where you can find a wider catalog the Xiaomi article.

Which shop do I choose?
As we have already told you, each of these stores is completely reliable: choose the one with the offer that interests you most, by price or according to the hurry you have in receiving the product (you can filter products with local shipping) .
If you live in Europe, for items over € 150 you may be interested in choosing stores that ship from European warehouses as VAT is included and you also don’t have to worry about paying customs duties.
Remember that if you choose to purchase an item over € 150 shipped from China and your package is seized by customs, you will have to pay VAT and duties in case it is seized by customs (this is not common, but possible to happen). If your order from China is € 150 or less and customs stop it, don’t worry: all you need to do is present your invoice or a record of your purchase to clear it.
