When it comes to international logistics shipping, it's such a simple thing for many foreign trade people. Shipping every day may seem theoretical but not practical for some newcomers. Perhaps even beginners and veterans can benefit from reading this article.

Firstly, explain your product information clearly. What is the product you have come up with?

With accurate product information, international logistics companies can provide you with accurate quotations. A professional quotation response requires you to provide detailed product information. In terms of product classification, there are general and special goods, and almost all general goods can be mailed. Special goods are not completely mail able, most special goods can be mailed, but we need to distinguish them. Let's talk about special goods first!

1、 As the name implies, special goods are called special goods. The characteristics of special goods (imitation brand goods, pure battery goods, goods with batteries inside, goods containing liquid or liquid, paste like goods, powder or powder, compressed gas, magnetism, flammable, toxic substances, radioactive materials, animals and plants, seeds, biology, precious metals, food, cultural relics, super long pieces, super large pieces, etc.), Contraband will not be mentioned, Everyone should know what Contraband is, but some countries may mail knives, bullet proof vests, sights, and other commemorative goods.

2、 Ordinary goods refer to goods other than special goods and Contraband goods. It is better to provide HS information to find out whether they are anti-dumping products in the destination country, especially the more serious information in the recent trade war (according to personal needs)

3、 Clarify where the goods are going? The most important thing is the postal code of the recipient's country address (postal code is mainly used to determine whether it is remote). Although most areas are not remote, what if there is a remote fee of several hundred or even thousands? It is particularly noteworthy to travel to South America and Australia. Different channels with the same address may result in remote delivery to the same address, and DHL may not be remote if it finds out. Therefore, when checking for remote delivery, you need to choose your own shipping channel.

4、 The number, size, weight, and cost of the goods shall be strictly executed in accordance with the contract. The quantity and weight of parts first depend on whether the individual piece is overweight, and then calculate the volume weight of the goods based on their size to determine whether they are overweight and why a relatively accurate weight should be provided. To determine the billing weight, the following is the general international logistics volume weight algorithm.

When measuring, remember to measure as much as possible, based on the maximum amount on one side. For small pieces, if the measured reading is 49.4cm, the integer 50cm should be taken for calculation. Don't ask why the rules are like this.

5、 Billing weight unit: The international express industry uses 0.5KG as the billing unit for goods below 21KG, such as 1.5KG for 1.1KG, 1KG for goods above 21KG, and 22KG for goods above 21.3KG. The price range for bulk delivery varies from household to household.

6、 Postal EMS, postal packages, and postal packages are all charged based on actual weight. Other channels need to calculate based on the actual weight and volume weight, which is the largest. The larger weight is used as the billing weight when comparing the actual weight and volume weight. The volume weight algorithm is to multiply the length of the outer box by the width multiplied by the height divided by 5000 (in centimeters) to obtain the volume weight of each item. For irregular outer boxes, the maximum length multiplied by the width multiplied by the highest edge divided by 5000 (in centimeters), The billing methods for UPS and ARAMEX are different.

The above mentioned several important factors in the inquiry. Only after providing information about these goods can an accurate quotation be provided, otherwise it will seriously affect your cost accounting and budget. Firstly, your cost accounting and budget, and secondly, your own cost accounting and budget.

Why do you need to consult an international logistics company for shipping? For example, there are no less than 50 channels for a shipment to France, even if the discount price of DHL UPS TNT FEDEX international logistics company is much better than that of foreign trade companies, and the advantages of each country and channel are different. Therefore, finding a high-quality international logistics company to send express goods is worry free, professional, and cost-effective, Many goods that cannot be shipped can also be delivered to these international logistics companies.

International logistics companies have achieved high-quality matching of goods market resources, and can access many mainland channels for express delivery. Different accounts include international logistics companies, Hong Kong express delivery channels, air delivery channels, and Shanghai delivery channels, among which there are many branches. In short, various channels make you dizzy.

As a professional international freight forwarder, in addition to informing customers of the above cargo information, we will provide you with the most suitable choice as soon as possible and provide you with professional services. We hope to also respect those who provide you with professional services, such as changing packaging, changing packaging, reinforcing packaging, and so on.

It may take half a day to compile a single quotation, especially for those who need to communicate with foreign agents. International logistics companies sometimes find it difficult to respect the efforts of others. What ultimately needs to be collaborated on is what needs to be done.
