When filling out the content related to the international agency for import declaration, first of all, it is necessary to accurately fill in the information of the agency company, including the full name of Zhongshitong, detailed address, contact number and fax number, etc., to ensure the authenticity and effectiveness of the information, which is convenient for communication with the customs and other departments.
Secondly, it is necessary to clarify the agency method. The common ones are direct agency and indirect agency, and you need to check according to the actual situation. If it is a direct agency, the agency company handles the customs declaration and tax payment procedures in the name of the principal; an indirect agency handles it in its own name.
Furthermore, it is necessary to clearly fill in the entrusted matters, such as the specific information of the declared goods, including the commodity name, tariff number, quantity, value, etc., which should be consistent with the actual goods to avoid false declarations. In addition, the scope of authorization should also be clearly stated to clarify the authority of the agency company in the process of import declaration.
