hi...

 i'm new to international business... can anyone please tell me how a container is shipped from the factory in one country to my shop in another.... the procedure, the documents needed, the method of payment,...etc.

not that i am so lazy to find out but that i am confused by the amount of  terms used like T/T, L/C, bill of lading, freight forwarder and things like that.

 i'll be very thankful if u can explain this "complicated process"...

if you are lazy

then ask your supplier for CIF price , so you can save yourself from shipping hasel.

then hire a custom clearing agent , he will do all for u.

FOB is freight on board

TT : telegraphic transfer

LC: letter of credit

 

FIRST YOU SHOULD MADE AN SALE-PURCHAISE AGREEMENT

THERE YOU SHOULD INDICATE THE SIDES;

THE CERTIFICATES WICH WILL CONFIRM YOU NEEDED SPECIFICATION'S OF THE GOOD'S;

THE INSPECTION SERVICE WICH WILL CONFIR PRESHIPPING IDENTITY OF CERTIFICATES TO THE GOOD'S WHICH ARE LOADED IN CONTAINER;

CHOOSE SHIPPMENT TERM'S CONFORM INCOTERM'S2000 (CIF, FOB, AND OTHERE 11 TERM'S) THE BEST ONE IS CIF HERE WILL BE INCLUDED TRANSPORT INSSURANSE

CHOOSE THE PAYMENT TERM'S: LETTER OF CREDIT, T/T OR OTHER , I RECOMEND YOU TO USE DOCUMENTARY CONDITIONAL LETTER OF CREDIT;

CHOOSE ARBITRATION COURTH HOUSE TO PROTECT IN A CASE YOU DEAL CONFORM TO THE YOUR SALE-PURCHASE CONTRACT.
