Agency import and export does require qualifications. Firstly, the enterprise should have a business license, and the business scope should include relevant content such as "goods import and export" or "technology import and export". Secondly, it is necessary to handle the record-filing for foreign trade operators, which is an important certificate for enterprises to carry out import and export business, and it is declared and handled through the unified platform of the business system of the Ministry of Commerce. Thirdly, customs record-filing needs to be completed, which can be handled through the "China International Trade Single Window" or the "Internet + Customs" platform for customs declaration and clearance of goods. In addition, for commodities involving inspection and quarantine, inspection and quarantine record-filing is also required. The process of handling these qualifications is relatively cumbersome and requires the preparation of a lot of materials, such as the business license copy, the identity card of the legal representative, etc. But as long as you operate step by step in accordance with the regulations, it can be completed smoothly.
If it is difficult for you to handle it yourself, you can also entrust a professional agency like Zhongshitong to assist.
