Bank requested additional beneficiary address proof on the SWIFT copy.

Our finance team needs clearer milestone triggers before releasing the balance payment.

  • How do you handle partial refunds on short shipments?
  • Have you used supplier credit insurance?

Appreciate any real-world examples from this board.

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

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

Agree on documenting everything in the PO appendix.

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

Happy to compare notes offline if you share your category.

Tagging you here for visibility.

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

Consider booking ocean space two weeks earlier during peak season.

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

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

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

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