5 Common Mistakes When Exporting from the U.S.
Exporting may seem simple, but small mistakes can cost you time and money.
Here are the most frequent ones:
- Incomplete Documentation → Missing or incorrect invoices, packing lists, or permits delay customs clearance.
- Wrong Cargo Declaration → A mistake on the airway bill can lead to fines or shipment holds.
- Poor Transit Planning → Ignoring transit times or holidays at the destination creates unnecessary delays.
- Wrong Transport Choice → Picking air instead of ocean (or vice versa) impacts both cost and delivery time.
- No Reliable Partner → Without the right logistics ally, risks and expenses multiply.
