📦 Importing from Asia to Brazil? Avoid these five costly mistakes.
A competitive freight rate is only one part of a successful import operation. Poor planning can quickly lead to delays, unexpected charges and compliance risks.
1️⃣ Incomplete documentation: errors in invoices, packing lists or certificates can delay customs clearance.
2️⃣ Unrealistic lead times: production, transit, customs procedures and local delivery must be planned together.
3️⃣ Incorrect HS/NCM classification: the wrong code can result in cargo holds, penalties and unexpected taxes.
4️⃣ Looking only at the freight rate: duties, terminal fees, storage, local charges and inland delivery also affect the total landed cost.
5️⃣ Choosing the wrong logistics partner: proactive communication, reliability and local expertise make all the difference.
