FAQ
Importers’ main concern is avoiding scams and poor quality. To mitigate this, they should use reputable platforms (Alibaba, Made-in-China, Global Sources) to check supplier certifications, always order samples before bulk purchasing, and verify that suppliers can provide required import certificates (e.g., KEBS for Kenya, SONCAP for Nigeria) for products like electronics, textiles, and toys.
Importers need to consider more than just the purchase price from China. The total landed cost includes:
· Customs duties and VAT (rates vary by HS code and country; e.g., Kenya 16%, South Africa 14%)
· Transport costs (sea freight: $120–$250/m³, slower; air freight: $6–$12/kg, faster)
· Clearance fees (agents, inspections, port handling)
Calculating all these components is essential for accurately determining profit margins.
Delivery time affects stock and cash flow. The key considerations are:
· Sea freight: cheaper, suitable for bulk, takes 25–50 days.
· Air freight: faster (5–10 days), costlier, ideal for urgent or high-value goods.
· Incoterms: FOB is preferred as it gives importers control over shipping costs, while CIF may result in higher charges from the supplier.
Customs clearance can be complex and delay‑prone. Key requirements include:
· Essential documents: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and import permits.
· Country‑specific conformity certificates: e.g., PVoC (Kenya), SONCAP (Nigeria), SABS (South Africa).
· Hiring a freight forwarder or customs agent is highly recommended to navigate local regulations smoothly.
