Generally speaking, export agency enterprises need the following types of materials. First, basic business materials, including a copy of the company's business license, which is used to confirm the legal business identity of the enterprise; a copy of the tax registration certificate to facilitate handling tax-related matters. Second, product materials, such as a detailed product instruction manual, which should cover product characteristics, specifications, uses, etc., so that the agency can understand the product for better promotion and export; product pictures to visually display the appearance of the product. Third, document materials related to export, such as customs declarations, which should accurately fill in the goods information; packing lists, which should indicate the packaging situation of the goods, including quantity, weight, volume, etc. In addition, contract materials may also be needed, such as the sales contract signed with foreign customers to clarify the trading terms. Finally, for matters related to foreign exchange collection, the enterprise's bank account information needs to be provided. Different products may have additional materials due to special regulatory requirements, but the above are relatively common.

You also need to prepare invoices, such as commercial invoices, which should contain information such as product price, quantity, and amount to facilitate customs clearance and settlement. Proforma invoices may also be used in the early stage of the transaction, for example, for importers to apply for import licenses.
