Import agency companies mainly provide a series of services related to imports for their clients. Firstly, in the procurement process, they can utilize their own resource advantages to help clients find high-quality overseas suppliers, negotiate prices, sign contracts, etc. In terms of transportation, the agency companies arrange international transportation, including sea freight, air freight, etc., and handle matters such as booking shipping space and packaging during the transportation process.
After the goods arrive at the port, they are responsible for handling customs declaration and inspection procedures to ensure that the goods meet the requirements of relevant domestic regulations and pass customs smoothly. At the same time, they will also pay tariffs, value-added taxes and other taxes on behalf of clients to avoid mistakes caused by clients' unfamiliarity with policies. In addition, import agency companies may also provide warehousing services, temporarily storing the goods until the clients arrange to pick them up. Even in some cases, they assist clients in handling after-sales issues such as disputes over the quality of the goods. In short, import agency companies can make the import process smoother and more efficient and help clients solve many problems in the import process.
