Discuss freight and destination responsibilities for the actual goods and shipping batch.
Describe the cargo
Provide the product, origin, destination, quantities and available packed measurements. Identify the importer and any special handling or documentation requirements.
Review the proposed arrangement
Check the route, delivery point, charging basis, documentation and responsibilities. Ask which freight, clearance, duties and taxes are included, estimated or pending.
Approve the shipment
Confirm the measured batch and written scope before dispatch. Import requirements and route availability depend on the goods and destination.
Work backwards from the receiving point
Identify the actual delivery location and any receiving or unloading instructions already known. Share the cargo details and documents available from suppliers. Use that information to discuss the transport scope and destination handover, with outstanding requirements assigned before dispatch.
Prepare the cargo and delivery details
Send the goods, supplier or pickup location, delivery point and available packing record. Identify the importer and outstanding document questions where known.
