In the agency export business, the domestic consignor is usually the company entrusting the agency export, that is, the party actually providing the goods and assuming the responsibility for the exported goods.
This is because although the agency company assists in handling many export-related affairs, the ownership of the goods and the responsibilities related to the export essentially still belong to the entrusting party. For example, the responsibility arising from the quality problem of the goods is mainly borne by the company entrusting the agency export.
From the perspective of customs declaration, filling in the entrusting company as the domestic consignor can truthfully reflect the actual source and ownership of the goods. Such a definition helps to clarify the rights and obligations of all parties in the export process and avoid situations of unclear responsibilities. If the agency company is wrongly regarded as the domestic consignor, it may cause confusion when tracing the responsibility in case of problems with the goods, affecting the subsequent handling of the business.

To put it simply, the domestic consignor is the owner of the goods, that is, the party entrusting the agency export. The agency company just helps with the work, and the real consigning entity is still the entrusting party.
