At this time, the shipping representative will collect the 2nd and 9th couplings and affix special seals for declaration on the 6th and 8th couplings
2. Inspection declaration is to obtain a customs clearance form for the goods to be exported after inspection by the Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau when customs declaration is required by customs supervision. 1. If the export commodity is an item that needs to be inspected by the state, the cargo owner is required to provide relevant documents for inspection and replacement. The customs broker shall provide the consignor's invoice, packing list, sales contract, as well as the cabinet inspection form, the inspection authorization letter and a copy of the loading slip that has been stamped with the entry seal, and entrust the customs broker to handle the customs exchange clearance form. When declaring customs, the customs declaration form must be submitted to customs together with the customs declaration materials. 2. When the inspection encounters the inspection of the customs clearance merchant (technical inspection/random inspection), you must make an appointment with the commodity inspection bureau through the customs broker. The goods to be inspected do not need to enter the wharf, as long as the goods are loaded into the container, you can directly bring the inspector of the commodity inspection bureau to the site for inspection. At this time, the inspection is mainly for the packaging performance and production batch number of the goods. After the inspection is possible, the customs clearance documents can be exchanged.
3. If foreign cargo owners need to report for inspection at the exit in Xiamen, the local inspection and epidemic bureau should apply for inspection in Xiamen with a certificate replacement voucher.
3. Customs declaration 1. After declaration, transfer the 6, 7, 8 and customs declaration materials to the customs broker for customs declaration.

The declaration data is entered into the electronic computer, and only after receiving it can the customs formally submit the relevant customs declaration documents to the customs.
IV. Stowage (Loading Plan)
After the release of the goods, they should be sent to the terminal for loading in time; The second link is generally operated by a customs broker, who sends the 6th, 7th, and 8th coupons stamped with the "Customs Release Seal" to the dock stowage room. After receiving it at the terminal, it will be stamped on the 8th coupon, returned to the customs bank, and transferred to the forwarder to use when signing the bill of lading, and 6 and 7 coupons will be left. The 7th link is transferred from the terminal to the first mate of the exporting ship as the basis for loading the vessel, while the 6th link is handed over to the freight forwarder after the ship is opened.
V. Possible Situations 1. Due to the shipowner's storm of the cabin, the cargo is dumped (1) The shipowner always confirms a few more space to the booking forwarder when booking out of his own considerations, so as to prevent the consignor from returning the load, and the voyage is not fully loaded and suffers losses. Until the cabin cannot be carried after the explosion, the cabinet is dumped. (2) After the burst of the cabin, the shipowner promptly notified the company's route supervisor that the container was dumped. Under normal circumstances, the shipowner will entrust a customs broker to do the load change, and each shipowner has different requirements, depending on the specific situation. (3) OP to the document department according to the new ship name, voyage to re-type the new 6, 7, 8 and packing list (4) after the new 6, 7, 8 and 8 lines are arranged, and the old 8 links are used to replace the old 6,7 links (5) The new 6, 7, 8 links are used to stamp the entry stamp (6) Finally, the old 6, 7 and the new 6, 7, 8 are replaced 2. After the cargo is declared and the data is changed again, it is generally not allowed to change the data again, and if it needs to be changed, a letter of guarantee with the official seal of the freight forwarder should be presented, indicating the consignor, bill of lading number, ship name and voyage, Sailing date and old and new data. 3. The shipping agent has been intercepted and arranged, and the goods urgently need to be exported, and a loading guarantee letter (stamped with the official seal of the freight forwarder) to the shipping agent is handed over to the customs broker, which can be scheduled, declared, and declared at the same time. 4. If the cargo exceeds the weight limit of the destination port, it is impossible to enter the site and issue a letter of guarantee to the shipowner, stating that all consequences shall be borne by the freight forwarder, and the official seal of the freight forwarder shall be affixed. 5. The departure port, the wharf and the pick-up location are in two different areas on or off the island, which has a crucial impact on the cost of towing, pay attention to the generation of new tolls. 6. The container has entered the yard, but due to special reasons, it is necessary to leave the site after the heavy container enters the dock, for some reason it must be moved out of the terminal for processing and re-enter the terminal exit, or move to another terminal exit, you need to provide the relevant instructions of the consignor/trailer company and the inspection and release information of the customs, the rearranged consignment note and the container coupon, etc., and go to the shipping agency to handle the heavy container transfer procedures.
(4) Review the bill of lading→ the shipowner confirms the fee→ pre-borrows and purchases, pays the foreign exchange union→ pays all fees → signs the bill
1. What is a bill of lading?
1. Bill of lading means a document evidencing the contract of carriage of goods by sea and the fact that the goods are taken over or loaded on board a ship by the carrier, and that the carrier guarantees delivery of the goods. It is the proof of pick-up by the consignee.
2. Content of bill of lading:
(1) Ship name, voyage
(2) Bill of Lading number
(3) Name of carrier
(4) Consignor
(5) Consignee
(6) Notifier
(7) Port of loading, port of discharge, port of transshipment
(8) The name, mark, packaging, number of pieces, weight, volume of the goods
(9) Terms of payment of freight
(10) Date, place and number of copies of the bill of lading
The most important thing is the signature or seal of the carrier or by its authorized person
2. Review of documents
1. The verification and change of the bill of lading must be handled before the time specified by the shipowner to avoid unnecessary bill change fees.
2. To issue a bill of lading or do electric discharge, you need to go to the shipowner or the designated ship agent to handle it, and at the same time, you must prepare the eighth coupon and the relevant letter of guarantee, as well as the bank payment slip that has paid the fees of each project (the letter of guarantee is issued to advance the purchase and payment of the foreign exchange coupling to pay the sea freight USD). At the same time, you can also issue an invoice for the paid expenses with the water bill and submit it to the financial account. 3. Ordering, electric discharge, SEAWAYBILL
1. First of all, you should go to the customs broker in time to retrieve the eighth joint stamped with the pier seal after the release.
2. Pay the document fee on behalf of the fourth joint to the ship, if it is prepaid, when the freight owner has paid the water bill (the original copy of the city, not the city can be a copy but the freight forwarder letter is required) and the fourth joint issued freight invoice.
3. Receiving orders (Directing MASTER B/C)
(1) To receive the bill of lading is to take the eighth coupon and document fee invoice, freight invoice (business coupon) to the ship to issue the bill of lading
(2) If the content of the bill of lading is different from the information on the eighth link, or some special content needs to be displayed on the bill of lading (such as non-wood packaging on B/L, ALSO NOTFY CLEAN BOARD) and ship certificate, etc.), the cargo owner needs to provide the original letter of guarantee and let the shipowner confirm its consent, plus the freight forwarder's letter of guarantee to sign for the bill of lading.
(3) If the cargo owner allows the reverse bill of lading to provide a letter of guarantee in the form prescribed by the external agent, the shipowner must confirm the consent of the cargo forwarder to add the forwarder's guarantee.
Note: The time of collecting the bill of lading should wait for the ship to leave, the first mate receipt (seventh link) will be issued by the ship owner after the ship takes it back to the ship after verification, generally it is half a day after the ship opens, but if the ship owner can issue the bill of lading himself, he can issue a bill of change after the ship opens, as long as the cargo owner's is OK.
4. Electric discharge
In the case of cargo loading and the shipping company issuing a bill of lading, the consignee must surrender an original bill of lading duly endorsed (usually the full set of original bills of lading when changing the port of discharge or in other special circumstances) (Note: This is the nature of the bill of lading as a surrender of securities, that is, the realization of the right to request delivery on the bill of lading must be required by the surrender of the bill of lading), and also pay all the costs due, before the bill of lading can be obtained at the port of discharge (DeliveryOrder, D/O), pick up the goods.
When the consignee is unable to obtain the bill of lading in a timely manner, it is usually the consignee who takes delivery of the goods after exchanging the letter of guarantee for the bill of lading (Note: Please distinguish between the concept of "letter of guarantee", which is commonly used in shipping practice, and the concept of "guarantee" in guarantee law). However, the shipping company cannot use a guarantee against a third party (the true consignee holding the bill of lading), which is the document by which the carrier guarantees delivery of the goods. The terms set forth in the bill of lading for delivery of the goods to a named person, or to the instructions of the person instructing, or to the holder of the bill of lading, constitute a guarantee by the carrier to deliver the goods.
In order to enable the consignee to take delivery of the goods in a timely manner under certain circumstances where the bill of lading cannot be obtained in time and the shipping company is unwilling to deliver the goods with a letter of guarantee, the practice of "electric discharge" has emerged in practice. What is commonly referred to as "electric discharge" is a narrow concept in which the shipper (consignor) loads the goods on board the vessel and returns the full set of original bills of lading issued by the carrier (or its agent) to the carrier (or its agent) and designates the consignee (in the case of a non-bearer bill of lading); The carrier authorizes (usually by telex, telegram, etc. of communication) its agent at the port of discharge to deliver the goods without the consignee producing the original bill of lading (recovered).
Therefore, the legal principle of "electric amplifier" is that, in the case of a bill of lading issued by the carrier, the goods (or the bill of lading) can be delivered when the bill of lading is withdrawn. Since the place where the carrier takes the bill of lading is at a place other than the delivery of the goods (the port of discharge) (usually at the port of loading), it is considered an exceptional case to recover the full set of original bills of lading. However, at present, there is no definition of "electric discharge" in relevant international conventions, national laws (such as China's maritime law) and regulations.
The electric discharge shall be provided by the shipper with a written application or letter of guarantee, and in the case of the original bill of lading has been issued, the full set of the original bill of lading shall be recovered before the electric discharge can be made.
5, SEAWAYBILL: basically equivalent to electric discharge, but not every destination port is allowed to do SEAWAYBILL. (Generally, no fee) * With the eighth link, document fee invoice, sea freight invoice (attachment) in addition to the original letter of guarantee of the cargo owner to the shipowner, pay the shipowner's electric discharge notice.
4. Dunning: 1: Ticket settlement: Ticket settlement customers should abide by the principle of seeing the payment order
2: Monthly end: Monthly customers can directly release orders to customers after sailing.
