Global Expansion: Go Global Not Postal
Registration Assistance
It's a big world full of customers. In order to reach them, you have to clear some registration and foreign tax compliance hurdles. We will guide you through this process so that you can reach new markets with ease.
Simplifying Customs
Figuring out country of origin isn't so hard, but you may ask "what the heck is an HTS code?" Without properly labeling your items, shipments can get lost or delayed. We will help you categorize your products correctly so that you can clear customs effortlessly.
VAT Tax Reporting
Death and taxes may be the two certainties in life, but you don’t have to let VAT tax reporting be the death of your business. We love Excel and can assist you with preparing and filing the required documents.
DDU vs DDP
We could probably write an entire handout on this topic. The key part to remember is that DDP makes your customers' lives a little easier when you ship to other countries by collecting VAT tax upfront. Unfortunately, it does require a bit of work on your end and fortunately we can help you with that.
EU IOSS
IOSS registration in the EU is optional but highly recommended for many reasons. It allows customers to prepay VAT at checkout which saves money, time, and improves deliverability. We can assist you with registration as well as with fulfilling the ongoing legal and compliance requirements.
The Truth
There is no nice way to say this but some packages will get lost if you choose the wrong shipping carrier. Others may be held in customs so long that they start to grow legs. We'll share what we've learned so you don't have to feel the same pain.
