If you are a professional in the business of imported goods, the concept of officially imported goods is probably not too strange. Especially for the enterprises, merchants who prefer Chinese products, this form is becoming more popular. Today, TGI TRANS invites you to stop by this article to learn in more detail about the advantages and process of officially importing Chinese goods..

What is official import of Chinese goods?

China’s official import is a form of transporting goods in large quantities across the border of two countries via border gates. The goods transported through official channels will be carefully censored for quality by competent authorities to ensure safety criteria for each imported industry. Therefore, it is required that official goods importers must complete all procedures and pay taxes in full before customs clearance.

Today, official import to China is considered a form of importing Chinese goods that is popular with many people and applies to all subjects, not limited to certain enterprises or companies. In Vietnam, in recent years, official import of Chinese goods has become more and more popular because it ensures legality and transparency for orders and brings many significant benefits to the merchants.

Official forms of importing Chinese goods provided by TGI TRANS

Import of official goods by airway

China’s official transport by airway has only recently been implemented. This form is quite suitable for retail customers and small-sized but high-value goods that need to be shipped quickly. Importing goods by airway ensures the quick delivery with high safety. However, the air customs clearance procedures are very complicated and face many difficulties.

Similar to roads, seaway is a popular and fast form of officially importing Chinese goods. Sea freight is often suitable for the enterprises that need to import large quantities and bulky goods. Your goods will be packed into large boxes or containers and will be supported by the carrier to load onto ships.
