To handle import and export agency, first of all, you need to screen suitable agency companies. For example, like Zhongshitong, you can learn about their reputation, qualifications, and service scope through the Internet, recommendations from peers, etc. After determining the agency company, sign a power of attorney agreement with the agency company to clarify the rights and obligations of both parties, including agency fees, service contents, etc.

Next, prepare relevant materials. Generally, you need to provide copies of the duplicate of the business license, copies of the tax registration certificate, copies of the identity card of the legal representative and other basic materials, as well as business materials related to the import and export business such as contracts, invoices, packing lists, etc.

The agency company will handle a series of procedures such as the record-filing of the import and export operation right, customs record-filing, and entry into the electronic port network based on these materials. Although the whole process has a certain degree of complexity, professional agency companies can handle it efficiently to facilitate the smooth development of the business.
