2customs helps solve many problems related to shipment management for foreign trade. Here are 2customs' solutions against the difficulties you may experience
Providing incorrect or incomplete documentation is an important problem in customs procedures. Customs declarations, invoices, packaging lists or other required documents may cause delays and potential penalties. It is very important to make sure that all documents are correct, complete and suitable for customs arrangements and examine it carefully.
Each product has a specific tariff classification, and the appointment of the wrong classification code can cause customs problems. False classification can lead to higher customs duties and even rejection of shipment. It is important to define and classify the products correctly according to the harmonized system (HS) code and to consult customs authorities or classification databases if necessary
Lack of understanding or awareness about customs regulations and adaptation requirements can be a trap. Each country has its own import and export regulations, including limited goods, permits, licenses and documents. In order to be aware of these regulations and to ensure compliance, it is very important to get guidance from customs consultants or trade consultants.
Many countries have trade agreements or preferential trade programs that provide discounted or zero customs duties for appropriate goods. Failure to use these agreements or not correctly documented the origin of the goods may cause unnecessary tariff costs. It is very important to investigate the current trade agreements and to benefit from them and to ensure appropriate certification.
Weak communication and coordination between all parties involved in customs procedures may lead to delays and complications. The lack of timely and accurate information sharing with customs brokers, shipping companies or other stakeholders may cause delays or false statements in customs procedures. Continuing effective communication and coordination is essential for the customs procedures to be carried out without any problems.
Import and export controls, such as sanctions, embargoes or export license requirements, should be complied with. Failure to comply with these controls may lead to serious penalties, legal consequences and loss of reputation. It is important to understand and follow all valid imports/export controls and monitor the changes in regulations regularly
