Where can I find a reliable import agency for customs declaration?
Our company has a batch of goods to import recently. We have no relevant experience before and don't know where to find an import agency for customs declaration. We are worried that an unreliable agency will delay the customs clearance of the goods and may also incur additional costs. I would like to ask if there are any good channels or platforms to find professional and reliable import agency services for customs declaration. It would be best if you could give some precautions when choosing. Thank you!
