What is an Exporter of Record?

The Exporter of Record (EOR) is responsible for ensuring that goods comply with the export regulations of the exporting country. This includes export documentation, compliance with export controls, and logistics up to the point of shipment.

Why Do You Need an Exporter of Record Service?

You don’t have a registered entity in-country.

You are not registered to export goods.

You do not possess export licenses and permits for the goods.

You don’t know the specific export process, local compliance, or legal requirements.

You need a simple solution for a complex RMA requirement.

TecEx has championed RMA projects in the most obscure foreign destinations, handling the returns process –
saving you time and money on compliance and research.

No More Stuck Shipments

Any mistakes in the EOR process can result in stuck shipments and financial and legal penalties. Goods exported out of the country must follow the necessary compliance requirements and legal regulations in the Export Transaction (ET). This includes everything from classifying the required Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) to ensuring export compliance documents are sourced.

Why Choose TecEx’s EOR Service?

TecEx’s Exporter of Record service includes specialist exporter solutions based on trade regulations, optimized services for OEMs requiring Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) operations, as well as temporary imports.

Our EOR solution includes export declarations, licenses, permits, and accurate descriptions and valuations of the hardware. An EOR service provider like TecEx guarantees you’ll meet export requirements, making customs clearance seamless.

An EOR has the same level of responsibility as an IOR. It is all about ensuring the gear’s compliant exportation through the country’s customs process.

EOR In Action | TecEx UK EOR Solution

The Challenge

Our specialized UK EOR solution was born out of the Brexit pain point. It allows our clients to compliantly export their gear from the United Kingdom and reach their final destination

The Solution

Shouldering the risk of acting as the EOR, TecEx is the only entity that will remain liable to the UK customs authorities. With this, we take care of the reporting, document retention, inspection, compliance visits, and audits for up to seven years following the export.

The Result

TecEx holds a special Open Individual Export License (OIEL) that allows for the export of most controlled products out of the UK. Should this not be appropriate for your shipment, TecEx will apply for a Standard Individual Export License (SIEL). This will involve a lead time (~20 working days), but we will handle all the paperwork and administration involved.

The United Kingdom

Return Merchandise Authorization can include after-sales service aspects such as replacements, return analysis, warranties, product service agreements, and vendor management. TecEx’s EOR solution can facilitate reverse logistics shipments in cases where equipment requires repair.

EOR Solution for RMA

Forget outdated RMA processes and managing multiple vendor relationships to fulfill a single SLA. A fragmented approach like this creates two critical problems, an unreliable service delivery and fluctuating, unpredictable costs.

A specialist EOR solution is crucial to a functional RMA supply chain.
