americanson:You need SONCAP. It is usually issued in the country of goods manufacture after SON officials visit. Obtaining it is quite easy and straight forward. If you are dealing directly with the product manufacturer in China. Tell the manufacturer you need SONCAP certificate of the products to be sent with your bill of laden. The manufacturer will include the cost of the SONCAP to cost of goods and issue you invoice. (Note that your manufacturer will advice you of a Shipping company) Once you pay, manufacturer handles the remaining process. You only need to make sure your bill of laden, SONCAP and any other documents specified in your Form M gets to your Clearing agent in good time to avoid demurrage. You need a good and honest Clearing Agent at this point. Lots of tout without an office claim to be a Clearing Agent. The Clearing Agent is the one in position to answer all the questions you have been asking. Hope this helped. Wishing you success ahead. 2 Likes |

Connoisseur: Good morning sir. Was just going over the thread again to take down any point I must have missed. Based on your submission Here it means before I even pay for the goods or shipping, it is therefore imperative that I should get an agent FIRST, am I right? |

sonnie10:hello, if I am gonna do groupage, whom do I tell to make it so? That is, is it the manufacturer or the shipping line that would be told to make it groupage? |

americanson: You do not need to have an agent before you pay for your goods. You need to have an agent before the seller ships or at the point of shipping. This is because the agent would have to guide you on some of the process to make clearing easier. |

Connoisseur:I understand but I was talking with respect to the Form M requirement, since it is stated that one should open a Form M first before importing and you also mentioned that agent can help with theirs (Form M). I interpreted it to mean that I have to get an agent FIRST to sort out the Form M before proceeding to pay the manufacturer. |

americanson: Yeah based on your status, I think you should get an agent first. He would be able to guide you. 1 Like |

sonnie10: According to Connoisseur, some Agents apply for the Form M from the bank in advance in expectant of a prospective client and by extension, they use their own Form M and act as the importer, which allows the client (me in this case) to use theirs. He didn't say agents issue Form M. What he meant is that the agents go to the bank and apply for it but front as the importer, using his or her name but the client will be aware of all these while it is on going, which saves time too! I am also aware that a form M is valid for 180 days and can be extend to another 180 days, bringing it to 360 days validity usage. |
