Understanding Export Documentation for Sanitary Ware Shipments

International shipping of sanitary ware products requires careful documentation. Here is what B2B buyers should know.

Essential Export Documents

1. Commercial Invoice

Must include detailed product descriptions, HS codes, unit prices, total value, and country of origin.

2. Packing List

Details the contents of each package, including dimensions, weight, and quantity.

3. Bill of Lading (B/L)

Ocean freight requires a clean B/L. For FCL (Full Container Load), we provide direct B/L.

4. Certificate of Origin

Proves the manufacturing origin of goods. We provide Form A (GSP) or Form F/Form E for specific trade agreements.

5. Inspection Certificate

Third-party inspection (SGS, Bureau Veritas, TÜV) available upon request. We include factory QC reports with every shipment.
