| About Import Procedures | |
| - what is CIF ? | |
| CIF means Cos, Insurance and Freight. If our quotation states CIF Los Angeles, the quoted price include insurance coverage and freight up to Los Angeles. | |
| - what are the payment terms ? | |
| You may pay by L/C or T/T. In the case of an L/C, please open an "Irrevocable
L/C at Sight" when your order is confirmed. In the case of a T/T,
we require you to forward the full amount upon confirmation of your order. We accept card payment, too. |
|
| - What is an T/T ? | |
| T/T means Telegraphic Transfer, sometimes called Wire Transfer or SWIFT. In the case of a T/T, we require you to forwards the full amount at the same time as you submit your order. You simply pay the funds into your bank, which will then transfer the payment into our bank account within a few days. This transaction is simple but requires that you trust us because we receive your money before the shipment is made. | |
| - What is an L/C ? | |
| L/C means Letter of Credit, which will be issued (opened) by your bank.
This is the preferred method of money transfer in international business.
An irrevocable L/C is a Letter of Credit that cannot be canceled. This
guarantees that a buyer's payment to a seller will be received on-time
and for the correct amount. Please consult with your bank. As soon as the
order is confirmed, we will send you our pro forma invoice. This may be
required for your bank to open an L/C. This site can help you learn more about L/Cs. http://www.bizhelp24.com/export_import/letter_of_credit.shtml |

| - Do we have to pay shipping costs ? | |
| Our CIF prices include freight charges up to a port of entry or a container depot nearest to you. Please ask your freight forwarder to collect the container from the yard and transport it to your site at your cost. In the case of the U.S.A., we can quote prices CIF according to your specified destination, which includes freight charges up to your door. Additional costs for which you are liable may include import duty, some port charges, customs fees or forwarder charges, etc. Please consult with your local freight forwarder for more details. If you do not know of any forwarders, please refer to your local telephone directory or do a local Web search. |
