Why Export Documents Must Tell the Same Story

An export document set identifies one transaction. When descriptions, quantities or names conflict, customs, carriers, banks or buyers may need clarification before they can proceed.

Matching export documents arranged beside a sealed commodity sample

Start from the agreed terms

Use the approved product description, parties, quantity basis, destination and delivery term when preparing each document.

Match final loading figures

Bag count, net weight, gross weight, container number and seal information should reflect what was actually loaded.

Confirm current requirements

The required documents vary by commodity, destination, buyer and payment method. Confirm them with the relevant authorities and service providers.

Review drafts early

Allow the buyer or its agent to check drafts where appropriate. Corrections can become harder after departure.

  • Consistent names
  • Consistent product description
  • Final quantities
  • Correct transport references

Common questions

Is there one document list for every agro export?
No. The list depends on the commodity, destination, buyer and transaction. Confirm current requirements before shipment.
