Firefighting equipment can indeed be exported through an agent. However, since it concerns public safety, there are indeed many requirements for export. First, you need to confirm the type of equipment and relevant standards, as different countries and regions have different access standards for firefighting equipment, such as CE certification in the EU.
Second, you should choose a professional and experienced agent, like Zhongshitong which specializes in import/export agency services. The agent will assist with export qualifications, customs clearance and other procedures.
Furthermore, detailed product documentation should be prepared, including product specifications, performance, quality certifications etc., to facilitate smooth customs inspection. Additionally, transportation is crucial - some firefighting equipment may be classified as dangerous goods and must be handled according to dangerous goods transportation requirements to ensure safety.

It can be exported through an agent, but make sure you have complete quality inspection reports. Many countries have strict quality control for imported firefighting equipment, and without proper certification it may not clear customs.
