When it comes to shipping, it is necessary to know the common terms about shipping: container transportation, S/O, bills of lading, warehouse explosion, container dumping, customs declaration, bill payment, cut-off weight, cut-off release slip, free container period and so on
Container transport: Container transport is also known as liner transport。The meaning of liner transportation is the same as that of shuttle transportation。The shuttle bus runs several times a day, the liner runs once a week, several times a month。Container transport can effectively improve the efficiency of maritime transport and improve the speed of cargo turnover。Why use containers？This is for standardization。Only standardization can improve the speed of freight transport。In general terms, container transportation we colloquially called full container, container cargo。
S/O: Warehouse storage paper and warehouse notice。In popular terms, S/O is equivalent to a train ticket。Placing S/O means that the goods ordered by the customer have been reserved for shipping。
Bill of Lading: Bill of Lading (B/L,M/BL,H/BL,SEAWAYB/L) A bill of lading is a document used for shipping。
Warehouse explosion: There are a lot of goods on the market, and the shipping company's positions can not meet the market demand within a certain period of time, so there is a phenomenon of warehouse explosion。The warehouse explosion will lead to a chain effect such as rising shipping prices and dumping cabinets。It means that we buy tickets in the Spring Festival rush, and the principle is the same。
Dumping: Dumping means that your container is loaded from the factory and returned to the dock, but it does not catch the ship you booked first。The main reason is that the shipping company has received more goods。
Customs Declaration: All goods shipped from China to any overseas country or region must be declared to the Chinese Customs。This declaration process is called customs declaration。The following information must be provided for the normal customs declaration: a, you must have an export qualification。B.Packing list and invoice of goods C.合同。
Pay the bill: If the factory is not qualified for export, it will be borrowed from a factory that is。It's called paying the bill.。Others are willing to borrow money and charge some, which is called a foot charge。Paying the bill is a grey concept。The State has not made it clear that this can be done, but it is normal not to carry out inspections。Here, many companies have the misconception that any goods can be paid for, which makes commodity inspection and payment confusing。
Some export commodities need inspection, so it's no use just paying the bill。For example, mechanical equipment。For example, medicines and food require additional food inspections。Some can be done with money, some cannot。We will continue to help our customers inspect all pharmaceutical and food exports that involve the safety of human lives。If the customer does not have customs declaration materials, we will not accept。Here I repeat: freight forwarding is not just a day or two, we must do it safely for a long time。
Others have load, cut-off release, free container period, free pile period, direct flight, transit, barge and so on not one to introduce to you, if there are questions welcome to consult the station manager Yang。
