Dear Patty,
The po# in this shipment is 90013&90014.
1) We he used the same HS code for Custom declaration for many years.It's Customs' regular inspection and??because there is a wording on the header card " intended as a treat, not food", which looks not consistent with the HS code, since the HS code cover a range of food product, they want us to clarify. We explained to Customs today, and they accept our explaination and release the cargos today.
For the next ETD, Forwarder said there is no shipping space next week, and the earliest shipment will be Sept.8.We can do nothing at this moment.
2) You asked us to check with your forwarder for more shipping info., but in the actual operation for the past several shipment, we meet some problems with the forwarder. Below is a recap of the problems:
2.1.Lack of logistic knowledge, for each shipment, we will ask the forwarder for discharge port, and place of delivery, but it seems they are not clear.
2.2.Not formiliar with your docs requirement and logistic requirement, we asked shipping instruction from the forwarder, but finally we he to wrote emails to you back and forth, and verify each point with u, this cause low efficiency and extra workload;
2.3.Not proactive enough, this forwarder is late in confirming booking shipping space, normally in China, forwarder is able and should cfm the booking info. 7 calendar days before ship date, but this forwarder can only cfm the booking info. 4-5 days before ship date, this has happened in the past two booking. And this affect our container loading.
2.4. Lack of operation plan. When Customs inspected??po#90013&90014, they did not he any schedule to maintain the best ETD, just wait, and when we informed the forwarder that Customs released the shipment, forwarder advised no shipping space ailable in the next week.
Surely we will try our best to work with your forwarder in ongoing shipment. But considering the reason above, we may he some questions about shipment & docs and need to??go back to you directly, especially for??the first several shipment.We'd like to solicit your understanding and patience for this.BTW, do you he shipping instruction of your company can send us?
Best regards,
Michael Wang[收起]
