We attach photos per SKU and compare against approved PPS.

Third-party inspection caught label language mismatch before containers gated in.

  • Is inline QC better than final PSI for electronics?
  • Who pays re-inspection after rework?

Appreciate any real-world examples from this board.

We added a second inspector and the defect rate dropped noticeably.

Our QC checklist is based on AQL 2.5 with a tightened level for critical dimensions.

Following this thread; our experience aligns with yours.

Timeline slipped once, but proactive updates from the supplier made it manageable.

Agree on documenting everything in the PO appendix.

We also request carton drop tests and keep photos in our QMS folder.

Good question. In our case the forwarder clarified it within 48 hours.

For payment terms, we never go 100% upfront with a new vendor.

Tagging you here for visibility.

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