Incoterms Management

We simplify international sourcing by managing your Incoterms at every step. From selecting the right terms to coordinating shipping, logistics, and handling risk, we ensure a smooth and cost-effective experience for you.

Choosing the Right Incoterm

We begin by carefully evaluating your unique business needs to recommend the best Incoterm for your transaction. Whether it’s FOB, where you retain control once the goods are on board, or CIF, where we ensure insurance and freight costs are covered, we ensure the term aligns with your risk tolerance and delivery preferences.

Shipping and Logistics Coordination

Once the Incoterm is agreed upon, we handle all logistics to ensure timely and safe delivery of your goods. We coordinate with reliable carriers for sea freight, air freight, or trucking, and manage shipment details to avoid delays.

From booking cargo space to arranging pickup and final delivery, we ensure that your goods are transported according to the agreed Incoterm, with every step tracked and managed for efficiency.

Shipping and Logistics Coordination

Risk and Cost Allocation

We take the guesswork out of international shipping by clearly defining who is responsible for what costs and risks at each stage of the process. Whether it’s determining when the risk transfers from seller to buyer or ensuring proper insurance coverage, we handle the complexities so you don’t have to.

Our transparent pricing model ensures there are no hidden fees, and we provide detailed updates throughout the process, so you always know where your goods are and what’s happening at every stage.

Still Have Questions? We’re Here to Help

What is the best Incoterm for my business?

We take the time to understand your business needs, shipment volume, and preferred level of control over the delivery process. Based on this, we help you choose the most suitable Incoterm—whether FOB, CIF, or EXW—to balance cost, risk, and responsibility.

Our goal is to ensure that the selected Incoterm aligns with your operational priorities, whether you want to minimize upfront costs or take control of delivery logistics.

How do I know if my shipping costs are competitive?

We analyze all aspects of your shipment, including the chosen Incoterm, transportation method (air, sea, or land), and final destination. By working with a network of trusted carriers, we select the most cost-effective shipping routes and ensure that you’re not overpaying for freight or customs.

Additionally, we continuously monitor market trends to provide you with competitive rates, ensuring you always receive the best value for your shipments.

What documents do I need for international shipping?

International shipping requires a range of essential documents, such as commercial invoices, bills of lading, certificates of origin, and packing lists, all of which we handle for you. We ensure that documentation is accurately completed and compliant with both Chinese export regulations and the requirements of the destination country.

Our team works closely with customs authorities to minimize delays and ensure smooth clearance, helping your goods reach their destination without unnecessary holdups.

How do you ensure my goods are protected during shipping?

Depending on the Incoterm you choose, we arrange the necessary insurance coverage for your goods. This includes ensuring that the insurance policy covers risks like damage, loss, or theft during transit.

We also work with trusted packaging suppliers to ensure that your products are securely packed to withstand the rigors of international shipping, whether by sea, air, or land.

What happens if my goods are delayed or damaged?

We closely monitor every stage of your shipment, tracking it in real-time to detect any potential delays or issues as soon as they arise. In the event of damage or delays, we immediately notify you and coordinate with the carrier to resolve the situation quickly.

Our team works directly with freight providers to investigate the cause of the problem, claim compensation where applicable, and ensure that the disruption is minimized.
