OK. Commodity inspection is really an important part of our trade contract.
Yes. Let's first define the inspection right.
Following the rules of world business, the exporters have the right to inspect the goods before the delivery, while the importers have the right to re-inspect the goods after their arrival.
Would you tell me how the inspection is conducted before shipment and by which agency?
Inspection is to be done by the China Commodity Inspection and Testing Bureau. Usually inspection is conducted within five days before each shipment.
And can you tell me about the re-inspection?
Yes. The re-inspection should be made within seven days upon the arrival, and if any discrepancy is found, the claim must be raised within one month.
I see. How do they make testing and analysis of this item?
They always use the standard and method laid down in the contract.
What if the results from the two inspections do not coincide with each other?
A seminar of technical specialists including the surveyors from both sides will be held to clarify which result is correct.
