SRF 2024-10-14 14:54

Part I
1. Before the cabinet arrives at the port, the ship at the port of destination will send a notice of arrival to the consignee (the ship will usually send the notice of arrival 3-5 days before arrival);
2. After receiving the notice of arrival (Arrival Notice, referred to as AN), the customs clearance bank can arrange pre-customs clearance (pre-customs clearance is CUSTOMS ENTRY, which is the customs declarant who enters the product information/declared price and other information of the goods in the customs system. After there is no problem, the customs declarant clicks confirm in the customs system and the tax bill will come out). Note that customs clearance cannot be completed without, because the customs clearance bank needs Firms Code (cargo location) when making DO(Delivery order bill of lading), and Firms Code is available on;
3. Waiting for the release of customs documents, the release of customs documents requires the customs clearance bank to go to the customs system for inquiry (customs document release, that is, the goods information CUSTOMS ENTRY has no problem after customs examination, and the customs does document release processing, which is only the release of customs; If there are goods involving FDA declaration, DOT declaration, CPSC declaration, EPA declaration, etc. in the cabinet, even if the customs has released the documents, however, it is also possible that FDA/DOT/CPSC/EPA and other departments require inspection of this cabinet. These departments are separate and independent from the customs. They can also see the declaration information of cabinet goods in the customs system).

Part II
1. When the cabinet arrives at the port, it usually takes 2-3 days to unload the cabinet (individual shipowners such as Meisen Yixing will be faster);
2. The truck line went to the dock website to check whether the status of this cabinet is avaiable (if the status is avaiable, it proves that we can make an appointment with the dock to lift the cabinet. At present, only Meisen and Yixing Ships do not need to make an appointment, and the goods can be picked up directly after the available is displayed);
3. After having the appointment time, the driver takes DO to the dock to pick up the goods;
note that if the destination port is an inland port, the shipping company will give a PICK UP#(PU# for short) after customs clearance. the agent will notify CNEE after receiving the PU#, and the truck company will pick up the goods with this number. the number will have to wait until: a, the goods arrive at the storage yard and get on and off the cabinet B from the train, the customs release, c, the shipping company release, and can't get any missing items, that is, the cabinet of the inland port needs not only DO but also PU#.

Part III: Tracker Number and POD for Truck Delivery
1. The tracking number (I. e. PO NUMBER) and POD will only be available if the services of a third-party truck company (such as Estes Express) are used;
2. Own dedicated truck delivery SNA / LGB / ONT / OAK / SJC / PHX / FTW / DFW / IND / CLT / ABE / MDW / AVP these Amazon warehouses, such special-line trucks have no tracking numbers and have PODs.
