Navigating the import/export process requires understanding each step from documentation to final delivery. Below is a simplified flow:

Import Process:

  1. Identify supplier and finalize commercial contract.
  2. Arrange freight booking (air/sea).
  3. Prepare and verify documents (invoice, packing list, bill of lading/air waybill).
  4. Customs clearance at port of entry.
  5. Pay duties/taxes.
  6. Delivery to final destination.

Export Process:

  1. Confirm buyer’s order and Incoterms.
  2. Prepare goods, packaging, and labeling.
  3. Book freight (air/sea/courier).
  4. Prepare export documentation (invoice, COO, certificates).
  5. Customs clearance at port of departure.
  6. Delivery to buyer’s destination port or door.
