Amazon FBA in the United States limits the number of products to be warehoused according to the sales volume.

Then、 it will save a lot of costs to fill at least one container at a time.

At this time、 the most necessary is the American overseas warehouse.

Therefore、 the most obvious cost savings are transportation fees (including customs duties、 AMS、 IFS declaration fees、 BOND fees、 importer agency fees、 etc.).

And the recent trip to the United States has been delayed.

So now it has become a necessary choice for Amazon sellers and overseas warehouses

Some precautions for international maritime moving: when we choose an international moving company、 we must know its subject qualification and contract performance ability、 so as to determine whether the other party has the shipping qualification and the ability to ensure the safe arrival of goods at the destination. The contents of the consignment note should be true、 because the contract of carriage of goods will be established when the completed consignment note is accepted by the carrier and the carrier fills in the consignment note. The shipper must indicate the departure and arrival stations、 the units、 names and addresses of the shipper and the consignee、 and the packaging、 storage and transportation instructions in accordance with national regulations. Goods under the care and supervision of specially assigned personnel during transportation. The supercargo shall be responsible for the safety of the goods and abide by the relevant regulations on transportation. Before consignment of goods、 we must first understand the contraband and dangerous goods subject to transportation restrictions、 so as to avoid unnecessary trouble and delay in transportation caused by customs inspection. The articles shall be well packaged、 meet the transportation safety requirements、 and avoid loss of articles due to damage during transportation.

1. Professional team in China and the USA

If the selected American overseas warehouse has a dedicated team at home、 they will consider some problems that may be encountered after the goods are warehoused overseas and avoid it in advance. In this way、 the situation that the goods have been sent overseas but have encountered problems and are not easy to handle is reduced.

2. Warehouse provides insurance

The goods may be lost、 damaged、 delayed、 etc. in the operation process. Some overseas warehouses will introduce various types of insurance、 cargo damage insurance、 loss of parts insurance、 delay insurance、 etc. In case of problems in the warehouse、 these types of insurance will enable the seller to obtain reasonable claims without loss.

3. Scale and hardware facilities

The small American overseas warehouse has its own limitations. For some emergencies that may not be handled well and cause losses to the seller's interests、 it is recommended to choose an American overseas warehouse with complete hardware and software equipment and complete systems.

4. Independent taxation

The protection of tax and law is not only that your process is legal、 but also that of other customers in the overseas warehouse. In a common warehousing system、 only when everyone is legal can it be truly guaranteed.

5. Clear billing method

Not all American overseas positions are reliable. When choosing、 sellers should remember to look for those whose charges and prices are clear and unambiguous.

6. Provide a mature management system

A mature management system includes inventory、 sales order、 inventory and other data reports、 supports barrier free communication between customers、 goods、 overseas warehouses、 and logistics companies、 and provides accurate and timely information.

Consideration factor 1. Whether the expected delivery time of the goods is consistent with your own requirements

Although the Japanese special line is a good transport scheme for goods to be delivered directly from the current region to the destination、 the main means of transportation and specific driving routes used by the Japanese special line developed by different logistics enterprises are not identical. Therefore、 when choosing the special line in Japan、 enterprises need to confirm the expected delivery time of goods to the logistics enterprises that provide the route in advance. If they find the special line that takes a relatively long time to transport goods、 they should try to avoid it.

Consideration 2. Whether there will be additional costs after the goods are delivered to the destination

Because the charging standards and cooperation process rules of logistics enterprises corresponding to different Japanese special lines are not completely consistent、 some logistics enterprises even require the pickup person to pay a certain service fee after successfully delivering customers' goods to the destination. Therefore、 when choosing the Japanese special line、 the enterprise must understand the charging system from the logistics enterprise in advance、 including whether there will be additional charges during the delivery of goods or after the goods are delivered to the destination、 so as to avoid the impact on the process of goods delivery due to the lack of consensus on costs.

For medium and large products、 the cost of logistics and express delivery is a big part、 and the seller's top priority is to give consideration to freight and timeliness、 which directly determines whether he can have greater competitiveness in the competition with peers. The following factors need to be considered when selecting the overseas warehouse storage and final process one piece delivery mode: overseas warehouse location、 final process channel and storage system、 response speed、 ability to deal with emergencies、 peripheral supporting services、 etc.

The location of overseas warehouse mainly depends on whether it is distributed in the region of its main purchasing group、 whether it is close to the port、 whether it covers the United States、 etc. Among them、 whether it is close to the port will affect the timeliness and cost of trailer warehousing、 and the other two will directly affect the high and low cost of the final journey and the length of the timeliness、 which cannot be ignored.

However、 the tail channel is equally important. Besides the high and low cost、 we should also consider the stability of the tail channel and the ability to deal with emergencies such as stock explosion. It is better to choose your own tail channel. If it is the tail channel of others、 the price (changed) is not superior. Besides、 the response speed to deal with various problems is also unmatched. The experience is greatly discounted、 and even the problem cannot be solved at all. In addition、 such as the storage system、 surrounding facilities、 and whether the warehouse specializes in medium and large items are also factors that sellers need to consider when selecting cooperative overseas warehouses.
