First Sale Valuation: The File CBP Expects to See

Cardboard boxes and keyboard representing import order records

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

Forwarder and customer inspecting a container yard before VGM submission

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 […]

Fabrica a ratat nava: pachetul de recuperare a costurilor

Container truck on a highway after a missed vessel booking

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 […]

WanSea representative with ship, aircraft and truck logistics

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 […]

Cum să verificați un expeditor chinez înainte de a plăti

WanSea logistics team ready to verify a freight forwarder

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 […]

Trei furnizori, un container: cum funcționează intrarea vamală și ISF

Trucks queued at a warehouse loading dock for consolidated cargo

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, […]

Furnizorul v-a dat codul HS greșit? Remediați-l înainte ca vama

Import staff reviewing cargo documents at a container yard before customs classification

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 […]
