What payment terms, shipping terms and pre-shipment inspection do you offer?
Short answer: T/T bank transfer is our standard payment method, commonly a deposit with the balance before shipment; PayPal is accepted for samples and small orders, and a letter of credit can be discussed for larger contracts. We ship under EXW, FOB or CIF depending on your preference, and pre-shipment inspection by a third party such as SGS or BV can be arranged. The exact terms are written into the quotation and proforma invoice for each order, so nothing depends on a verbal agreement.
Payment methods we work with
T/T bank transfer
The standard route for production orders, usually a deposit on order and the balance before shipment. Bank charges outside our account are normally for the buyer.
PayPal
Practical for samples and small trial orders where a bank transfer costs more than the goods. PayPal fees are added to the invoice.
Letter of credit
Available for larger contracts on request. L/C terms need to be agreed before production starts, and bank charges are usually split per the agreed terms.
Trade terms
EXW from our factory, FOB Guangzhou or Shenzhen, or CIF to your destination port. Tell us which one your customs broker prefers.
