When looking for an export agent, pay attention to their records in departments such as customs and taxation. Those without violation records are relatively reliable. In addition, understand their abilities to handle problems, such as how to respond to unexpected situations like inspections.

On-site inspections of export agent companies are also very important. Look at the office environment and personnel arrangements, which can indirectly reflect the strength of the company. You can also ask them to provide the contact information of past cooperative customers for verification.

Pay attention to the capital advance payment ability of export agent companies. If the payment for goods can be received relatively quickly after the export of goods, it is beneficial to the capital turnover of SOHO. At the same time, see if they provide value-added services, such as guidance on the preparation of customs declaration documents.

Compare the charging models of different export agent companies. Some charge according to the proportion of the value of goods, and some charge according to one business transaction. Choose the cost-effective one according to your own business volume. At the same time, ask clearly what services are covered by the charges.
