FAQ
Q: How do I ensure qualification for Form E tariff reductions?
A: Form E must be issued by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) or customs authorities prior to vessel departure. Our operations team audits commercial documents for exact HS code alignment before submission.
Q: What is the claims protocol for transit damage or loss?
A: Shipments managed under our DDP/DDU frameworks include standard carrier liability. Optional All-Risk cargo insurance is available, with valid claims processed and settled within 14 business days following document submission.
Q: Are there special requirements for battery-powered items or chemicals?
A: Yes. Lithium batteries and chemical products require prior validation of the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) and UN38.3 test summaries before booking acceptance.
