How differs an Import from Export shipment?
In respect of dealing with an U.S. Freight Forwarder, when importing goods to the USA, shipper should understand that unlike with export, U.S. Freight Forwarder initiates import via its worldwide service partners network and continue to work on shipper’s behalf as soon as goods are entered in the U.S. Commerce zone. I.e. when importers tender goods to the international shipment they work directly with a carrier’s agent in the country where goods are being shipped. Contact information of carrier’s agent at origin provided in booking confirmations and/or shipping instructions.
