Commercial documents
A shipment normally relies on documents describing the transaction and the goods, such as the contract, invoice, packing information and other materials required by the parties.
Transport documents
The transport document depends on the mode used. Cargo, shipper, consignee and route information should remain consistent across the document set.
Permits and confirmations
Certain product categories may require certificates, permits or other confirmations. These should be checked before dispatch rather than after the cargo reaches the border.
Why the list must be confirmed
Requirements vary from shipment to shipment. Before dispatch, confirm the document set for the specific goods and route with the logistics and customs specialists involved.
