Consultation and quotation
Merchants first need to contact a professional international freight forwarding company to provide detailed information on printing consumables (such as product name, quantity, specifications, packaging method, etc.) and destination information (designated port and shipping address in the Philippines). The freight forwarding company will provide a reasonable quotation and transportation plan based on this information.

Sign the contract
After both parties reach an agreement on transportation plans, costs, insurance, and other matters, a formal transportation contract will be signed. The contract should clearly define the rights and obligations of both parties, as well as the precautions and emergency measures during transportation.

Goods preparation and packaging
Merchants need to properly package printing consumables according to the requirements of the freight forwarding company. The packaging should ensure that the goods are not damaged during transportation and comply with the import requirements of Philippine customs.

Domestic pick-up and export customs declaration
The freight forwarding company will arrange professional logistics personnel to pick up the goods on site and be responsible for handling export customs clearance procedures. Merchants are required to provide necessary export documents, such as commercial invoices, packing lists, export licenses, etc. The freight forwarding company will declare to customs based on these documents to ensure the smooth export of goods.

sea transport
After the goods are loaded into the container, they will be transported by sea to the designated port in the Philippines. During transportation, freight forwarding companies will closely monitor the movement of goods to ensure their safe and timely arrival at the destination port.

Import customs clearance and door-to-door delivery
After the goods arrive at the port in the Philippines, the freight forwarding company will be responsible for handling the import customs clearance procedures. This includes submitting necessary import documents to Philippine customs, paying tariffs and value-added tax, etc. Once the goods pass customs inspection, the freight forwarding company will arrange to deliver the goods to the consignee's designated address.
