To become an export agent for Baiyulong White Tea, first contact the manufacturer to express your agency intention and negotiate terms including authorized regions, pricing, and supply quantities.
Next, obtain necessary export qualifications such as import-export operation license (applied through local commerce departments) and food business license for prepackaged food sales.
