Importing from China
in Business, Accounting & Taxes ·
Hi everyone,
Has anyone here actually done business with the Chinese market before? I’m looking for some clarity on a few specific points:
1. Am I strictly required to order a full container load, or are there other logistical combinations available?
2. How is the cost for the container and shipping calculated—is it based on the value of the goods, or is there just a standard flat rate out there?
3. What does the customs process look like? Specifically regarding duty payments, the actual pickup procedure, and so on...
4. If I'm importing electronics, which specific certification do I need to clear through the FCC?
I have a few more questions tucked away, so if you happen to know the answers, please feel free to shoot me a DM.
Thanks in advance 🙂
