Things to know before sending goods abroad.

International shipping services Currently, international parcel delivery services are experiencing a significant increase in usage, and at the same time, the number of international shipping businesses is also growing. This has led to increased competition in the logistics sector, ultimately benefiting consumers by providing faster service and ensuring goods arrive in perfect condition. Comparing quality and price for international shipping has also become easier.

However, shipping goods internationally is definitely different from shipping them domestically. Today, SME SHIPPING will share what you need to know if you want to ship goods internationally, especially for beginners.

  1. Be aware of the import requirements of the destination country. Businesses need to gather import information from the destination country, including prohibited items and import duties, such as how much tax is payable based on value exceeding a certain amount, or whether taxes must be paid on every item imported.
  1. Use a shipping service that is suitable for your goods.
  • Containerized freight services come in several forms, including FCL (Full Container Load) and LCL (Less Than Container Load). FCL means filling an entire container, ideal for wholesale businesses. LCL involves sharing space within a container with others, offering cost savings even for small quantities or small items, suitable for retail businesses. 
  • Transportation should be tailored to the distance and time. For short distances, such as to neighboring countries with road connections, road transport or rail transport can be used. For long distances and non-urgent situations, sea transport may be preferred. If urgent service is needed over long distances, businesses may opt for air transport.
  1. Parcel wrapping, identifying recipient and sender names, and specifying the type of item.  Due to long-distance shipping, senders need to securely package packages to protect the contents. For fragile items, bubble wrap and stickers should be added to encourage handling by security personnel. To expedite delivery and prevent returned packages, senders must clearly write their full name and shipping address in English, along with complete information about the items inside the box. This includes the type, quantity, and price of the goods (in USD).

  2. Items that cannot be delivered include: perishable food, hazardous or flammable materials, perfumes and sprays, counterfeit or fake goods of all kinds, obscene materials, living organisms, carcasses, animal parts, human cremation ashes, gold bars, cash, precious stones (unpolished), firearms, ammunition, explosives, and illegal goods.

Product warranty terms and conditions:

  1. In the event that goods are damaged during the delivery process, the recipient must notify the company within 7 days of receiving the goods. The recipient must collect all relevant information and details regarding the damage, such as photos of the received box, photos of the goods inside the box, shipping details, date and time of delivery, and complete recipient information.
  2. Cargo insurance coverage begins from the moment the goods are under the care of the shipping company until they are delivered to the final recipient. It covers both loss and damage that may occur during transportation, calculated based on the weight and value of the goods. In cases of partial damage, the coverage will be calculated based on the actual weight of the damaged goods.

In cases where goods are denied or seized by customs, this can occur due to illegal goods, the presence of dangerous goods, prohibited items, or goods regulated by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) that may not have been declared in the cargo manifest.

Sending parcels abroad 

 

Sending parcels abroad Currently, international parcel delivery is becoming more popular, and at the same time, the number of businesses providing international shipping services is increasing. This has led to intense competition in the logistics sector, benefiting consumers by providing faster service and ensuring goods arrive in perfect condition. It also makes it easier to compare quality and prices. However, sending goods internationally is definitely different from sending them domestically. This article will therefore tell you what you need to know if you want to send goods abroad, especially for beginners.

 

Choosing a quality shipping company.

First, choose a reputable shipping company with a service-oriented approach that prioritizes customer needs. Currently, there are many international shipping companies offering a wide range of prices to suit your needs. Both Thai and international shipping companies are available, each with different services and pricing. Therefore, it's essential to compare information before making a decision.

 

First, we might compare prices, services, and inquire about warranties and after-sales service to ensure our product reaches the recipient safely. Additionally, we should read online reviews when choosing a shipping company for added assurance.

 

Parcel packing

Packing a parcel is just as important as choosing a shipping company. If you don't pack properly or are careless, the chances of your parcel being damaged increase. Therefore, proper packing will help protect your parcel from damage during transit. Choose packing materials appropriate for the size and weight of your parcel, such as cardboard, bubble wrap, and tape, and pack securely to prevent breakage or damage.

If your items are very fragile, we recommend informing the shipping company and attaching a "Fragile" sticker to alert their staff.

 

Document preparation

When sending parcels internationally, proper documentation is crucial; otherwise, your goods may be returned and never reach the recipient. For valuable items, it's recommended to use a company that handles all the necessary documentation for international shipping. This simplifies the process and reduces the risk of the parcel being returned by the destination. However, we should prepare all the necessary documents, including the bill of lading, tax invoice, export declaration, and other relevant documents.

 

Payment for shipping and parcel delivery.

International shipping costs depend on various factors such as the size and weight of the package, the distance traveled, and additional services like package insurance and express delivery. Once payment is complete, we will hand over the package to the service provider for processing. The staff will then provide a tracking number for you to monitor the shipment. You will then provide this number to the recipient so they can track the package further.
