Secure an international order before payment

Product, supplier, quotation and shipping: decisions to document before ordering.

01

Specify the product

A commercial name is not enough. Define dimensions, materials, performance, variants, quantity, packaging, marking and expected quality.

02

Verify according to risk

  • supplier identity and activity;
  • fit between product and capability;
  • useful evidence or sample according to the stakes;
  • payment and production terms;
  • defect handling and responsibilities.
03

Read the complete cost

Separate product price from service, packaging, transport, transit, taxes and other services. An incomplete quotation cannot be compared reliably.

04

Approve before payment

  • selected model and specifications;
  • quantity and price;
  • terms and timeline;
  • shipping mode;
  • expected documents and evidence;
  • owner of every stage.
