The Difficulties of Importing to Global Events
As you are aware – there are a lot of moving parts when organizing and attending global events. However, global event companies struggle to get their gear through customs.
There are a few challenges at play:
- Product classification: Ensuring compliance and accurate classification of imported goods.
- Country-specific regulations: What may be a crucial requirement in one region may be completely different for its neighbor. Furthermore, these regulations and restrictions change regularly, so staying up to date is a full-time job.
- Strict deadlines: Ensuring efficient and timely delivery to the dedicated locations within specified time slots.
- Stakeholder management: Many parties are usually involved in exporting, importing, and delivering goods, so effective communication is crucial.
