How to export/import – introductory

Import and Export cater to a very big section of revenue generation in India. Especially since the dawn of Globalization, International Business has taken a high wave. Export can be understood as the process where the goods that are produced domestically using our very own resources, are transported to another country. This can be through air or sea. Import means the goods produced in a foreign country using foreign resources are transported into our country. Exporting leads to an increase in our national income while Importing helps increase our global presence.

The process of exporting is said to be highly complicated, and there is no need to understand every details either. Usually the Exporter outsources such procedures to an external agency. There are certain procedures that a person has to go through in order to Export goods, such as establishing an organization, opening a bank account, obtaining PAN, IEC, RCMC and finally selection of products for Import. Then there are steps like finding the right buyers, sampling of products, pricing, negotiation with buyers and so on. An important authority that looks over the trade practices across India is the Directorate General of Foreign Trade. They regulate the Free Trade Policy, create guidelines on importing and exporting and so on. They also facilitate benefit schemes and give guidance to Importers and Exporters. It is also important to know about the documents required for Customs Clearance in India for the process of Import and Export of goods to and from the country.

Finding the right freight forwarder training course

 International freight forwarders help importers and exporters to move out of the country or into virtually any country. It’s a little more complicated than that, but at least its essence. Not all freight transporter companies will do everything you need. Often a company will specialize in road freight transport, sea freight or sea freight, or just air fares. This makes it a little easier for freight forwarders to choose because freight courses are more compartmentalized, but that can still be a difficult case for many.

Learning import and export duties

In a way, international freight forwarding training manual can be seen as a kind of travel agent for the import-export services of international trade. When you look at it this way, it makes more sense to use a light sender. They are simply transporting your goods across the border, or arranging other trucking services to allow safe delivery of goods to other destinations.

Knowledge of legal documentation

Of course, shipping and forwarding international goods requires a lot of unequal documentation and logistics. This kind of thing scares most people, so, it would be a great relief to know that the freight and freight forwarding companies will do all such boring stuff for you. You need to tell him where to pick it up, where to drop it off and pay for freight costs and service. They will take him from there. It can't be easier! The freight forwarding process include all the details of the necessary documentation required for the transportation.

Organization and integration of goods

You can save money by enrolling yourself with a freight forwarding training manual. This is because they organize and integrate a lot of goods with different locations. In this way the value of each individual or company is reduced, what would happen if he were alone. An established and experienced freight forwarding company values ​​gold in its weight for money and it saves you headaches, so you are advised not to try to do so on your own. You can definitely if you really want to, but why bother?

Finding the right freight forwarding course

Not all international freight forwarders are the same. You believe that you should check the right points and shorten your choice until you choose the freight course. Prices and services will change. Also ask for references. You're a customer, so look for people who are more focused on customer service, as well as freight forwarding. Only when you are really ready should you choose the right international freight forwarder for you.

UNDERSTANDING DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AIR CARGO AND SEA CARGO

 
In an Export Import business, different modes of transportation like Land, Air and Sea are made use for the movement of goods, and they play a significant role in connecting the buyer with the seller thereby fulfilling the demand of the buyer. The ocean shipping is the process of transporting goods to overseas buyers with the help of container ships. Basically, water transportation is of three types; through rivers and canals, coastal shipping and ocean transport. Air transport is one of the important modes of transportation which makes use of advanced technology. It offers the highest speed and a safe movement of the cargo, but is also one of the most expensive modes of transportation. Transport cost is influenced by factor like distance, volume, density, stow ability, handling, liability, and market factors.

A Freight Forwarder is a person who helps the Importers by maintaining contacts with carriers, liners and shippers.  A Freight Forwarder could help in deciding the Freight by providing information about rates and services offered. Information Technology also has an important role in Export and Import which helps in database management, data integration and provides speed, accuracy and customized reports. 

The webinar session on the differences between the two modes of transport conducted by JBS Academy was engaged by Professor Mrs Manisha Thaker, an expert in Logistics and Freight Forwarding with an experience of about 20 years. She has managed many odd dimension and breakbulk cargo projects and has served many manufacturing companies.
