In entrepot trade, there are multiple aspects to the requirements and standards for cargo boarding. Firstly, in terms of documents, detailed and accurate commercial invoices need to be provided, clearly stating key information such as the description and value of the cargo; the packing list should clearly specify the details of the cargo packaging, quantity, etc. The bill of lading is the proof of ownership of the cargo, and the information must be accurate without error.
In terms of procedures, declarations need to be made to the customs in advance to ensure the legality of the entrepot trade, and relevant taxes and fees should be paid according to regulations. There are also requirements for the cargo itself. It should meet the quality, safety, environmental protection and other standards of the destination country. For example, food should meet the corresponding hygiene standards, and electronic products should have qualified certifications. At the same time, the cargo packaging needs to be sturdy enough to withstand the bumps during transportation, and it should be properly labeled according to regulations, indicating information such as the name of the cargo, weight, and destination. These standards are different from those for general trade boarding and require special attention.

Before the cargo is boarded, it is necessary to ensure that it has undergone necessary inspection and quarantine. Especially for some special commodities, such as animal and plant products, there must be a qualified inspection and quarantine certificate, otherwise it cannot be boarded.
