The agency will make export documents based on this, such as commercial invoices, packing lists, etc. At the same time, you need to cooperate with the agency to complete the commodity inspection of the product (if required), and prepare documents such as product quality certificates and test reports.

During this period, you need to ensure that the goods are delivered to the designated place on time. After loading, the agency will follow up transport documents such as bills of lading until the goods smoothly arrive at the port of destination and complete customs clearance and delivery.
