What would you clarify before accepting a supplier's offer to handle everything through delivery?

- Ask who will be named as importer of record and whether they can lawfully perform that role in the destination. 'We handle everything' isn't a substitute for that answer.
- Confirm the exact delivery term, named place and included charges. Marketing language such as door to door can be less precise than it sounds.
- Find out how duty and tax documents will reach your finance team. A smooth delivery can still leave you missing records needed for accounting or review.
- For a new supplier, ask the destination broker to check the arrangement before the first order. It's easier to resolve responsibility before goods are moving.
