The emergence of import and export agencies is mainly due to the following reasons. First, trade policies and regulations are complex. The import and export policies, tariff regulations, and trade barriers of various countries are constantly changing. It is costly for enterprises to study and master them on their own. Import and export agency companies can ensure compliant operations with their professional knowledge. Second, handling import and export procedures is cumbersome. There are numerous links from customs declaration, inspection application to transportation and settlement. It is time-consuming and laborious for enterprises to handle them by themselves. Agency companies are familiar with the processes and can improve efficiency. Third, in terms of capital turnover, import and export trade requires a large amount of capital occupation and has a long return cycle. Sometimes, agency companies can provide financial support. In addition, some enterprises have a small initial business volume, and it is too costly to establish a special import and export team. With the help of agencies, they can carry out business flexibly.
In conclusion, the emergence of import and export agencies is to help enterprises solve problems in import and export trade and improve trade efficiency.
