Entrustment
Import and export entrustment means handing the whole export or import job to a company with the legal standing to act as the named party: the sales contract, international payment, customs, specialised permits, quarantine and the C/O.
New companies, household businesses and companies whose commodity needs a special permit can all use it. We are the named party on the paperwork, and you get on with your cargo and your customers.
Scope of work
Drafting and reviewing the contract terms, the Incoterms delivery term, the payment method and each side’s obligations before signature.
Opening the letter of credit (L/C), telegraphic transfer (T/T) and bank collection, with the document set followed through to settlement.
Every export and import customs formality carried out under the company’s licensed customs broker status.
Permits for chemicals, pharmaceuticals, medical devices and other conditional commodities, together with quarantine and specialised inspection.
Preferential form certificates of origin (C/O) so your buyer at destination gets the reduced import duty under the agreement.
Carried on by Morning Logistics’ own ocean, air or road services, with nothing handed to a third party.
We take the shipment file, advise on the commodity policy, obtain the permits, file the import declaration, pay the duty and deliver to your warehouse.
Your contract terms, buying and selling prices and counterparty identities stay confidential and go to no third party without written consent.
Importing to resell or to produce, but with no legal entity and therefore no standing to be the declarant. Entrustment is the only lawful route to clearance.
No dedicated import export function yet, or no firm grip on the process. Entrustment lets the company sell abroad straight away and keep its resources on the product and the market.
Supplements, cosmetics, medical devices, chemicals and machinery with control boards all need permits and specialised inspection, where the process is involved and risk is easy to run into.
Language and legal barriers, international payment, or an unproven supplier. The entrusted party acts as the middle party that verifies, negotiates and makes sure delivery matches what was agreed.
We establish the commodity, the market, the likely HS code and the permits needed.
Scope of work, the entrustment fee and each side’s obligations agreed.
The international sales contract, invoice, packing list and the specialised file drawn up.
The L/C or T/T carried out on the terms agreed.
Customs declaration filed, the cargo loaded and followed through to destination.
Cargo delivered, the document set handed over and the costs settled.
