OP
Forwarder quoted 28 days door-to-door but customs held the entry for a harmonized code review.
We ship lithium-free goods but the MSDS request still appeared in the portal.
- Did you switch forwarders after similar delays?
- How do you document Incoterms in the PO to avoid disputes?
We can share our checklist template if helpful.

We added a second inspector and the defect rate dropped noticeably.
Happy to compare notes offline if you share your category.

Pilot orders really help before committing to a full container.
For payment terms, we never go 100% upfront with a new vendor.

Good question. In our case the forwarder clarified it within 48 hours.
Timeline slipped once, but proactive updates from the supplier made it manageable.

We pushed back on the MOQ and the supplier offered a split batch.

Not sure about your HS code, but our broker used a different chapter heading.

Following this thread; our experience aligns with yours.
We also request carton drop tests and keep photos in our QMS folder.
