Import and export agency companies don't have absolute insecurity in themselves, but careful selection is needed. For a regular and safe import and export agency company, first of all, it should have legal and compliant business qualifications, such as having the Customs Declaration Unit Registration Certificate, the Registration Form of Foreign Trade Operators for the Record, etc. These are the bases for it to legally conduct business.
Secondly, a good reputation is crucial. You can judge by looking at the company's customer reviews, years of operation, etc. A company with a long operating time and a good reputation is relatively more reliable.
Furthermore, professional capabilities can't be ignored. Professional agency companies like Zhongshitong have teams that are familiar with import and export procedures, policies, and regulations, and can handle business efficiently, avoiding risks caused by operational errors. Of course, if you choose carelessly, you may face risks such as loss of goods, misappropriation of funds, and customs penalties due to illegal operations. So you must do more research and comparison.

Looking at the company's scale is also somewhat useful. A large scale usually means more resources and stronger risk resistance ability. However, you can't just look at the scale. If a small company operates in a standardized way and has strong professional capabilities, it may also be very reliable.
