Thirdly, obtain relevant qualifications, such as business licenses, registration of foreign trade operators, etc. In terms of the process, first sign an agency contract with the entrusting party to clarify rights and obligations. Then handle tasks such as booking shipping space for the goods, customs declaration, and inspection declaration to ensure smooth shipment. Choose an appropriate transportation method and carrier during transportation.
