Additional packaging and cargo insurance from China
Undoubtedly, when planning cargo transportation from China, it is necessary to take into account all aspects, risks and pitfalls. In addition to finding a supplier for your product, you need to think about how to deliver the cargo safely and in full.
If the issue is quite clear in terms of volume: use official delivery services with a full package of documents to avoid confiscation or seizure of partial/full cargo during customs inspection.
However, do not forget about additional security measures. Therefore, we recommend that you apply for additional insurance and packaging. You should not blindly rely on the packaging from the manufacturer, because some of them aim to sell and enrich themselves, not you.
