For import and export agency, first of all, the company itself needs to have legal business qualifications, that is, it must have a business license, and the business scope should include import and export related businesses. Secondly, the right to engage in import and export operations should be prepared, which can be obtained through the filing and registration with the commercial department.
Regarding documentary materials, commercial documents such as contracts, invoices, packing lists, etc. should be provided. These are used to clarify the basic information, price and packaging situation of the goods. There is also the power of attorney for customs declaration to authorize the agency company to declare to the customs. If the goods involve special regulatory conditions, such as licenses, inspection and quarantine certificates, etc., they should also be prepared in advance.
In addition, arrangements should be made in terms of funds to pay for the purchase price, agency fees and various taxes and fees. When looking for an agent, a professional, reliable and reputable one like Zhongshitong should be selected to ensure the smooth progress of the import and export business.
