Essentially, export agency is a kind of entrustment relationship. Due to various reasons such as lack of import and export qualifications and insufficient experience, export enterprises entrust professional export agency companies (such as Zhongshitong) to handle matters related to the export of goods. In this entrustment relationship, the principal (export enterprise) authorizes the trustee (export agency company) to handle a series of procedures such as customs declaration, inspection application, transportation, and foreign exchange settlement for the export of goods in the name of the principal or the trustee itself.
When operating, it should be noted that first, the rights and obligations of both parties should be clarified, and the service scope, fee settlement, risk assumption and other clauses should be specified in detail in the entrustment contract. Second, it is necessary to ensure that the information provided to the agency company is true and accurate to avoid affecting the export process. Third, pay attention to the reputation and qualifications of the agency company, and choose those with good reputation and professional ability to ensure the smooth progress of the business.
