How to avoid the logistics risk in international logistics

Logistics risks often occur in the process of international logistics transportation mainly include cargo transit risk, lost pieces and damage, customs inspection and other problems. Next, we will talk about how to deal with these three problems.

1. Cargo transit risk

In the process of transportation, goods will go through several transfers, which is prone to problems. For example, in the transfer process of international logistics, there will be lost pieces, packaging damage caused by unpacking, violence risk of sorting personnel, delay of parcel delivery caused by weather, and so on.

Corresponding measures: we should strengthen the product when packing the goods, for fragile items to stick the corresponding label, need to use foam, bubble bags, wooden cases of goods to be packed, to ensure the safety of the goods; Secondly, we can buy insurance to guarantee the safety of goods. For those with high timeliness requirements, we can choose logistics channels with fast timeliness.

Lost and damaged items are common problems in both domestic and international express. The following reasons may lead to the occurrence of these situations. First of all, in order to pursue more profits, some logistics forwarding companies choose remote logistics channels, resulting in slow Internet information, slow time. Secondly, because of the long logistics route, the long road leads to the occurrence of bumps and collisions in the transportation of vehicles, resulting in loss and damage. Finally, the logistics personnel's operation is not standardized or violent sorting led to the loss of pieces and damage.

Corresponding measures: We should choose a more professional and reliable freight forwarding company to cooperate with; The goods should be packaged in strict accordance with the product package, and the corresponding special goods should be packaged in special order to ensure that no accidents will occur during the transportation of the goods.

3. Customs inspection risk

The inspection of goods by the customs is mainly strict in the inspection of fake and shoddy products and articles expressly prohibited by the customs. For the goods with false value or large quantity that are inconsistent with the price, the customs will find out that they will be returned or fined.

Corresponding measures: goods should be transported in strict accordance with customs regulations. We need to understand clearly the items prohibited by mail. Those who need to provide export list materials or relevant certification materials should be prepared in advance.
