Where to start importing goods?

You may be planning to enter the import business or buy and import goods for a few times (even once). In both cases, it will be useful for you to get familiar with the import process and how to start importing goods, which is summarized in the following three steps.


Preparation of commercial information in Iran.

Starting to import goods can include different steps such as consultation with commercial teams, familiarization with import laws, etc.; But the three steps of learning the steps of importing goods, researching, and preparing commercial information are the most important steps to start importing goods, which we will explain below.


Learning the steps of importing goods

Research and investigation

The next step is research and investigation about the market and customer needs. You should check the various markets and inspect the products you want to import. Attending business boards, using internet search, attending international exhibitions and referring to chambers of commerce, all are suitable for finding a good source for importing goods.


Preparation of commercial information

What are the steps involved in importing goods?

There are different opinions regarding the order and priority of each step of importing goods. Knowing about the list of permitted and profitable goods for import, choosing the country of origin, inspection to ensure the authenticity of the goods, money transfer, choosing the shipping method (air-sea-land) etc. are among the steps of importing goods to the country. Panel Tejarat Company (Mako Free Zone) with a brilliant history in importing goods to the country, recognizing the prioritization of steps, suggests the following:

  • Sourcing
  • Bargaining and negotiation with the seller
  • Receive pre-invoice (proforma)
  • Quantitative and qualitative inspection of goods
  • Order
  • Payment and currency transfer
  • Transportation
  • Issuance of goods bill of lading
  • Obtaining a license from the shipping company
  • Declaring goods to customs
  • Performing customs procedures
  • Loading and delivery of goods


If we want to categorize all the mentioned steps into two general steps, the first step is choosing and buying goods, which includes the following:

Sourcing Sourcing

is the first step for importing goods, sourcing or sourcing. Sourcing includes determining the best supplier as well as inspection to ensure the authenticity and authenticity of the product. Sourcing requires a lot of knowledge and experience; If the importer does not pay attention to these things, he may face financial problems or import low-quality and fake goods! Therefore, it is better to get help from a specialized and experienced team for sourcing. Panel Tejarat Company will be with its customers in this regard.

Bargaining and negotiating with the seller

is the second step in the import of goods after sourcing, negotiating with the seller and getting information about the goods and financial and insurance obligations. Bargaining and getting discounts for purchases requires experience and expertise so that in addition to ensuring the quality of the purchased product, you can also increase your profit margin. Finally, after bargaining, you should order the product and if necessary, take a sample of the product from the seller.

Receipt of proforma invoice from the seller

after negotiation, the next step is to receive the proforma invoice from the seller. Proforma is a document in which the following items are mentioned:

    the number and date of issuance of the proforma invoice and its validity date :
    the full name and address of the seller, the full
    name and address of the buyer, the full
    description of the product, with qualitative, quantitative, quantity, quantity, dimensions, net and gross weight.
    The customs tariff number of the total amount
    with the mention of the type of currency according to the unit price, packaging cost and shipping cost, the description of the division of
    duties and responsibilities between the buyer and the seller based on the rules of Incoterms,
    the origin and final destination of the goods, the description of the ports or the place of loading and unloading of
    the means of transportation of the goods
    . Payment of the goods (advance payment, etc.)
    Country of manufacture of the goods COUNTRY OF ORIGIN

Important point:

check the proforma invoice and at what price and under what conditions the proforma invoice was received and study the Incoterms (product quantity, product price and product delivery conditions) and...) is very important.

Quantitative and qualitative inspection of goods

in international trade, one of the main concerns of the buyer of goods is that the seller sends the desired product with the quality and specifications included in the contract.

In order to prevent any discrepancy, some commercial companies are required to check the quality of the product according to the documents included in the contract during a stage called product inspection. This process includes qualitative and quantitative product inspection, sampling and testing. And finally, if the results of the inspections match the product specifications in the contract, a product inspection certificate is issued as a document confirming the quality of the desired product.

In order to estimate the costs and check the quantity of the goods, you should pay attention to the price of the goods, transportation costs, clearance costs, side costs such as licensing costs.

After placing the order,

after checking the proforma, it is time to check the goods. At this stage of importing goods, you need a commercial card. Checking the goods is done by uploading the pre-invoice in Iran's Comprehensive Trade System (NTSW). Checking the goods as a whole means: checking whether your imported goods are free, which includes checking whether the goods are domestically produced, whether the goods are not prohibited, and checking the priority of the goods (to find out about the first or second hall or the allocation of imported currency, etc.). Finally, after uploading the proforma, you will be issued an order registration and import license. It should be noted that for some goods, it is necessary to obtain a product ID or permits such as health or IRC or...

Payment and currency transfer

The payment stage includes having a foreign currency account, presenting the desired bank account when placing an order, requesting currency allocation from the central bank, confirming currency allocation by the central bank, paying the fee to the agent bank and transferring the amount. All these steps require a business card. According to the new rules, 5% of the amount of the invoice must be blocked in the bank before requesting currency allocation, and 35% of the invoice amount is also blocked before providing currency.

Transportation

at this stage is how the goods are transported by the buyer and with the approval of the seller. The method of loading the goods is already specified in the contract between the buyer and the seller. The types of cargo loading are EXW (factory door delivery), FOB (shipment delivery), CFR (customs delivery).

Choosing the shipping method

At this stage, you need an international shipping company. According to the obligations mentioned between the buyer and the seller in Incoterms and Proforma, the cost and method of transportation varies. If the seller's company accepts the shipment of the goods, for example, they can deliver the goods in Bandar Abbas, Bushehr, etc. In this case, you no longer need a shipping company. Otherwise, the buyer will sign a contract with a shipping company (air, sea or land) and after inquiry, the goods will be shipped.

The selection of the shipping method is based on international shipping methods as follows:

    air transportation, delivery of goods by air transportation companies, sea
    transportation, delivery of goods by sea transportation companies,
    land transportation, delivery of goods by transportation companies. And ground transportation,

of course, there is another method of transporting goods under the title of combined transportation; Combined transportation includes the transfer of goods from the country of origin to the country of destination with several different transportation methods. For example, in a part of the route where there is a blue border; Transportation is carried out by sea and the other part of the route, the goods are transported by land.

Issuing the bill of lading

After choosing the shipping method, it is time to issue the bill of lading. As we explained, the responsibility of transporting the goods according to the mentioned provisions (Incoterms) is with the seller or the buyer. The seller delivers the goods to the selected shipping company and receives a bill of lading (BL - Bill of lading) from the shipping company. The type of bill of lading is different according to the chosen shipping method of air, sea and land.

The second step of importing goods is clearance. This stage generally includes the following.

Obtaining a license

To obtain a license, the buyer or the buyer's legal representative (the person whose name is included in the bill of lading) must go to the shipping company with three original copies of the bill of lading or a copy of the released copy. In addition to obtaining the license, he must also receive the warehouse bill and receipt. At this stage, an electronic receipt is also given to the importer, where all the information can be viewed online.

An electronic receipt is actually a document that is issued by shipping companies when delivering cargo, which contains information about the cargo such as the type and weight of the cargo, origin and destination, method of transportation, etc.

Declaration to the customs

after buying and importing the goods, the person is obliged to declare the goods to the customs. You must declare which country you bought the goods from and at what price. Reporting to the customs includes: registration of clearance details in the EPL system, evaluation of the goods if needed, obtaining necessary permits (standards, etc.), payment of customs fees and duties, receipt of electronic license, loading of goods and departure of goods to the warehouse. The mentioned items are all a part of the customs clearance process, and by presenting these items and going through the legal steps, a person can take his goods out of customs.
 
Capital required for importing goods

The amount of capital required for importing goods depends on the type of goods, the amount and volume of imports, transportation costs, insurance, taxes and other costs related to imports; Therefore, this amount cannot be determined in general and must be determined based on the conditions of each importer and the product in question. In any case, importing goods requires significant capital due to costs such as customs fees, taxes, and transportation; Therefore, it is better to first design a comprehensive business plan and calculate the costs and capital required to import goods. Also, you can consult with consultants and business experts to find the best possible solutions for importing goods.

What are the popular sources of imports to Iran?

Choosing the source of import to Iran depends on various factors such as the type of goods, market demand, trade relations, international sanctions, price, quality of goods, etc.

Some of the popular sources of imports to Iran are:

Imports from China

due to its large economy and high production capacity, China is considered one of the most important sources of imports to Iran. Many companies and production groups prefer to meet their needs by importing due to the high cost of basic items. The most important goods imported from China include consumer goods, industrial devices and parts. In recent years, due to the restriction of Iran's relations with other countries, business activities between Iran and China have increased.

Imports from Turkey

Iran and Turkey have good trade relations, and Turkey is one of the main obstacles for imports to Iran. In recent years, imports from Turkey to Iran have increased due to the presence of sanctions and the reduction of Iran's trade relations with other European countries, as well as the price of the dollar. Because due to the small distance, both the transportation costs should be reduced and sometimes the customs exemptions applied between the two countries make the import more economical. There is no legal procedure. Currently, auto parts and agricultural machinery are imported goods from Turkey.

Importing from Dubai

Dubai is Iran's neighbor, and for reasons such as having one of the largest ports in the world, being close to Iran, and the low cost of transportation and clearance services, it is one of the most popular imports to Iran. Currently, it is not possible to buy from many countries due to sanctions by Iranians; Meanwhile, Dubai plays an intermediary role and facilitates the process of buying and importing goods.

It should be noted that the list of imported sources to Iran is very extensive and the choice of source for importing goods depends on the type of goods and other conditions.

Examining different types of import of goods

Import of goods can be done in two ways: definite import of goods and temporary import of goods. In definite import of goods, for example, the import of electronic parts for the production of electronic products such as televisions, mobile phones and laptops, etc., is done by paying the entry fee, the costs of performing customs services, and performing all customs duties. But in the temporary entry of goods, the goods are used for a certain period of time for specific purposes such as use in a specific project, exhibition, construction, etc. Temporary import of goods is usually for a limited period of time, and at the end of this period, the goods must be exported from the country.
