The conditions for agency export services involve both the principal and the agent.
For the principal, first of all, it should have a legal business qualification, that is, it should have a valid business license, and the business scope should include relevant export business. Secondly, it needs to have genuine export goods and clear proof of goods ownership, and be able to clarify information such as the source, specifications, and quantity of the goods. Moreover, the principal should have a good financial situation to pay various fees such as agency fees, freight, and customs duties.
For the agent, it should have a professional foreign trade team, be familiar with international trade processes, customs policies, foreign exchange management, and other businesses. It also needs to have the right to operate import and export, and have good filing records in departments such as customs and tax. At the same time, it should have a sound risk prevention and control system to effectively respond to trade risks, exchange rate risks, etc. Only when both parties meet these conditions can the agency export service be carried out relatively smoothly.
