    Importing & Smuggling are trade secrets kaya I doubt kung meron magbibigay ng advise...

    Check out some freight forwarders on their services and rates. They can also help you in areas like duties and taxes as well.

    What particular items are you thinking about? I suggest items that do not have an expiration or has a long expiration period.

    the secret for successful and legal means of importing is a good custom broker.

    two sides kc dapat yung tinitignan mo mabuti one is your supplier then yung logistics mo dito sa pinas..

    yung shipping lines madami naman dyan at kailangan mo lang makipag nego ng mabuti.. maganda ang service sa shipping line APL.

    you have to have a very good supplier kung na establish mo na eto then next step yung warehousing mo at logistic sa pinas naman ang i wowork out mo.

    try to search and nego na sa mga custom broker, yan ang tutulong sa iyo ng malaki regarding sa releasing ng shipments mo... kung mabagal ang broker mo lalong lalaki ang expenses mo..

    always think the lower you store your product the higher your handling cost and risk of spoilage worst manakawan ka pa...

    difference between shipping line/ freight forwarder and custom broker

    yung shipping lines sila lang yung may ari ng container van at sila yung mag ttransfer from one port to destination point.

    and broker sila yung mag aassist syo para makuha mo yung container mo sa ship down to custom then hanggang sa warehouse mo.

    bro sa customs walang legal at illegal.

    ganito klase ang work ko kaya kahit gaano kalegal papeles mo at nakursunadahan ka lalo na alam nila bago ka at walang alam paktay ka.

    Tapos nadiskartehan kapa nang broker mo paktay ka lalo dapat kilala mo broker mo madali pera sa broker kahit hindi nakursundahan yan sila magsasabi sa custome checker na tirahin kargamento mo.

    Not worth it wag ka manghinayang dito ka na lang bumili. Sabihin sa yo ng broker mo sya bahala kaya nya pero its your money. Mas madali magpasok ng brand new kaysa used car believe me been there done that.
