First Sale Valuation: The File CBP Expects to See
First sale valuation can lower the duty base when a manufacturer sells to a middleman and the middleman sells to the U.S. importer. You declare the earlier, lower price instead of the middleman’s marked-up price. The rate stays the same; the value it applies to changes. The method is not automatic. The importer must prove […]
VGM Handoff: Who Weighs the Container and Who Signs
The VGM is not a number the forwarder can guess. Under SOLAS, the shipper named on the bill of lading is responsible for the verified gross mass, even when a trucker, warehouse, or forwarder does the weighing. The container cannot be loaded without a VGM that reaches the carrier and terminal before the cut-off. A […]
공장에서 선박 누락: 비용 회수 패킷
When a factory misses the vessel, the carrier usually bills the party that made the booking, not the factory that caused the delay. That means you may pay storage, rebooking, and equipment charges first, then try to recover them from the supplier. Recovery is not automatic. It depends on what your purchase order says, what […]
일반 평균: 기여도 계산 방법
General average is not a fine and it is not a normal damage claim. It is a shared bill for an extraordinary sacrifice or expense that saved the ship and cargo together. Your contribution is based on the value of the property saved, not on the size of the casualty, and it can be demanded […]
결제 전 중국 화물운송업체를 확인하는 방법
A low quote is not evidence that a Chinese forwarder can carry your cargo. Before you send a deposit, verify four things: the legal entity behind the brand, the scope of its Chinese freight-forwarding registration, its NVOCC status for the route you are booking, and the party that will issue your bill of lading. Then […]
세 개의 공급업체, 하나의 컨테이너: 통관 및 ISF 작동 방식
Yes, three suppliers can share a container. No, that does not make them one shipment in the eyes of customs. A forwarder can consolidate the freight under one booking, one container, and one master bill of lading. Your broker still needs a separate commercial invoice and packing list from each supplier, each product’s HTS classification, […]
체선료 및 구금: 실제로 돈을 지불하는 사람과 청구서에 맞서 싸우는 방법
A container stuck at the port is not just a growing bill; it is a bill you may be able to challenge. Demurrage applies while a full container sits inside the marine terminal, and detention applies while the carrier’s container is outside the terminal, from gate-out until the empty is returned. The models and generic […]
공급업체가 귀하에게 잘못된 HS 코드를 제공했습니까? 세관이 수리하기 전에 해결하세요
Your supplier’s HS code is a starting point, not a legal shield. In the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and most other markets, the importer of record carries the legal duty to declare the correct tariff classification, even when the code came from the factory or a customs broker. The model answers […]
