This document must include the names of the buyer and seller, the type of goods, and the price you paid for them. For your items to be cleared by customs, you will require the original invoice. Verify that the packing list and the original invoice are identical.<\/p><ul><li>Bill of Lading\u00a0<\/li><\/ul><p>Document issued by the carrier. It attests that the exporter provided the items that were specified. It is a contract that details the specifics of an agreement between a shipper and a transportation firm and confirms receipt of the goods. Furthermore, it designates the type of cargo that will be transported between certain locations at a certain cost. The most fundamental document used in the transportation of goods serves as the goods&#8217; title, contract of carriage, and receipt. On forms provided by the carrier, the shipper prepares it.<\/p><p>This could be an airway bill (AWB) for airborne cargo.<\/p><ul><li>Packing list<\/li><\/ul><p>A document filled out by the shipper outlining the contents of the shipment. It includes the weight (gross and net), measurements, contents, and the numbering of each package in the shipment, as well as any distinctive characteristics (such as serial numbers), must be included. The buyer only pays duty on what they really received; it can also be used to spot things that are damaged or missing.<\/p><ul><li>Certificate of origin<\/li><\/ul><p>A Certificate of Origin (CO) is a document used in international trade that historically identifies the country of origin of the goods transported. However, the term &#8220;origin&#8221; in a CO refers to the place where the items are actually created, not the location from which they are shipped. The CO&#8217;s function is to verify the country of origin of the sent products. This certificate certifies that the products being exported were truly produced in one of the nations listed on the certificate. If you want to take advantage of preferential rates of duty on particular products, this is crucial.<\/p><ul><li>Restricted and prohibited products<\/li><\/ul><p>The importing of some goods into the US is restricted.
