If an import customs clearance agent refuses to pay, first, based on the contract and communication records, try friendly negotiation again. Clearly point out their breach of contract and demand timely payment as agreed, keeping records of the negotiation. If negotiation fails, send a lawyer's letter to formally demand payment and warn of legal consequences, which may pressure them. If the lawyer's letter doesn't work, file a lawsuit in court, using the contract and communication records as strong evidence to demand payment and breach penalties. Apply for property preservation during litigation to prevent asset transfers and ensure payment after winning the case.
You can also complain to relevant industry associations to apply public pressure. In short, take active measures to protect your rights.
