Agency import of goods, simply put, means entrusting a professional agency company, such as Zhongshitong, to handle a series of affairs related to the import of goods. Importers may choose to find an agency company due to various reasons, such as lack of import experience or unfamiliarity with trade processes.
The responsibilities of the agency company are extensive. First, it needs to communicate with foreign suppliers and sign purchase contracts to ensure that the goods meet the requirements. Then, it arranges transportation, including methods such as sea freight and air freight, and also handles customs declaration and inspection procedures, declares commodity information to the customs, pays tariffs, etc.
In addition, the agency company may also be responsible for the warehousing and distribution of the goods, delivering the goods to the location designated by the importer. Throughout the process, the agency company, with its professional knowledge and resources, solves problems for importers, improves import efficiency, and reduces risks.
