Frequently asked questions

Is freight insurance worth it for Box 4 orders?

For container level orders it is; the premium is small relative to the exposure from loss, theft or water damage.

Is documentation provided for customs?

Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.

Can packaging be adjusted for our market?

Artwork localisation is straightforward; structural changes need larger volumes and a longer lead time.

What happens if a batch fails inspection?

The agreed procedure normally covers replacement of affected units or credit against the next order, documented before shipment.

Final word
