Why Use a Trade Compliance Expert?
Internal Compliance Teams
The functionality of global supply chains depends on trade agreements, international trade regulations, and tariff classifications. But trying to stay up-to-date and knowledgeable about the various import licenses, sanctions, and permits is overwhelming.
Large companies often have internal compliance managers who ensure their business processes adhere to trade regulations. Even with these teams, unintentional trade violations often happen, resulting in severe delays, heavy penalties, and fines for failure to conform to source and destination country laws and regulations. This is where TecEx can step in and elevate your compliance team.
Different Trade Compliance Requirements
Your products must have a China Compulsory Certificate (CCC) marking to import into China. Any failure to comply with this certification can result in the goods being seized at customs.
Importing tech gear into India requires a lot of paperwork. As such, we manage the entire BIS, WPC, and MTCTE certification processes on your behalf.
Like the European CE marking, the KC certification ensures that all products imported to South Korea meet specific safety standards.
Avoid Stuck Shipments
Without up-to-date compliance documentation, your shipment will be seized at customs. Each country has different compliance requirements that must be fulfilled for the goods to enter the local market. Remove this risk entirely with TecEx.
