Ủy thác nhập khẩu – Tối ưu cho doanh nghiệp đưa hàng về Việt Nam Import consignment – The optimal solution for businesses bringing goods to Vietnam.

In the context of integration and globalization, importing goods from countries such as China, South Korea, Japan, the US, and the EU is becoming increasingly common for Vietnamese businesses. However, along with opportunities come a series of challenges such as complex customs procedures, changes in trade policies, quality inspections, and logistics cost control. Therefore, import consignment services have become an optimal solution to help businesses save time, costs, and minimize risks.

At Expeditors Global, we provide comprehensive import consignment services – from consultation, ordering, international shipping, customs clearance to domestic delivery – ensuring goods arrive in Vietnam quickly, safely, and transparently.

What is import consignment?

Import consignment is a form of business where a company does not directly sign the foreign trade contract and customs declaration but instead authorizes an entity with import-export functions (the consignee) to represent it in carrying out import operations from abroad into Vietnam in accordance with legal regulations.

In this model, the consignor remains the principal party of the goods, responsible for providing complete product information, technical specifications, and related documents, including but not limited to:

• Sales contract, invoice, packing list

• Certificate of Origin (C/O)

• Specialized inspection and quality control records

• Food safety certificate, hygiene certificate, conformity certificate/standard compliance certificate (if any)

Based on the documents provided by the business, the entrusted unit will represent the business in performing specialized tasks such as customs declaration, customs clearance procedures, tax payment, transportation and warehousing arrangements, and timely delivery of goods.

Why choose import consignment services? 

Save time and effort.

Import procedures, especially for specialized goods or those from demanding markets, require legal knowledge, paperwork processing skills, understanding of tax rates, HS codes, etc. A small mistake can cause goods to be held up or incur significant costs. Import consignment services allow businesses to focus on their core operations without worrying about complex procedures.

Minimize legal and financial risks.

In the import consignment model, the consigning enterprise remains the owner of the goods and is responsible for the legality and accuracy of the information and specialized documents. However, the consignee, with practical experience and understanding of policies, will act as a consultant, review documents, warn of risks, and support the handling of the transaction from the outset.

As a result, businesses can mitigate common risks such as incorrect HS codes, incorrect tax rates, missing or inappropriate inspection documents, and prolonged specialized inspections.

Optimizing logistics costs

Small-scale import businesses often struggle to access optimal shipping, warehousing, and customs clearance rates. Meanwhile, companies like Expeditors Global possess the capacity to consolidate goods, handle customs declarations centrally, exploit tariff preferences, and operate a wide-ranging transportation network, significantly reducing costs for customers.

Ensure timely delivery.

A professional company will have a clear processing procedure, continuously update the order tracking, and minimize delays, discrepancies in goods, or losses.
