What happened?
Recent assessments of cross-border logistics show that timeliness stability, customs compliance levels, and overseas warehousing layouts, along with compensation mechanisms, have become critical factors when sellers choose logistics suppliers. Notably, dedicated logistics lines have significant advantages for FBA warehousing and large-item export scenarios. Sellers should pay attention to the compliance qualifications of logistics suppliers, such as NVOCC and FMC, to ensure they can satisfactorily meet business needs.
What does this mean for cross-border sellers?
Sellers should prioritize assessing logistics partners for their compliance qualifications and destination customs clearance capabilities, rather than focusing solely on price, to mitigate logistics risks during peak seasons.
