It’s always best to know in advance. If possible, please include all corresponding tax calculations at the time of settlement. Next, learn about the documents required for international distribution. This may include: Waybill: detailed transportation label invoice, including all information and transportation expenses required for transportation and distribution: This is the necessary document for importing the package into the country, and all products, corresponding types and values are listed separately Additional forms for special and restricted goods (e.g. certificate of origin or other special case documents) for U.S. – based stores, the woocommerce shipping extension will be fully integrated with DHL for international distribution. This allows you to print shipping labels and invoices directly on the woocommerce dashboard. When woocommerce shipping is active, if you add an international shipping area, DHL will automatically recommend it as an option and guide the setting process. DHL is also a recommended partner to ensure that all other documents are correct.
The last thing to be confirmed is the local law on commodity import. Some varieties, such as live seeds, specific foods, and even books and toys, cannot be imported into some countries. Please recheck the deliverable list according to local law before providing it to the region. Communication is important for the distribution experience that allows the right distribution partner and connected customers to visit again for more information. Buyers want to know exactly where the goods they order are always and when they are expected to arrive. Distribution partners such as DHL provide the following important information on behalf of customers:
Through international distribution notification and package tracking, automatic distribution and tax calculation, customers can know all expenses in advance. The last mile delivery option allows customers to control their delivery time, including the drop-down of parcel safes or service points, all of which are automatically completed through the system established by DHL without additional setting or monitoring. The right distribution partner means that everything goes well. There is no need for logistics to start international distribution. Building an international customer base may take time to connect with overseas customers, so please be patient. Ensure that the process is prepared for a smooth launch and address distortions in the initial few shoppers’ orders. If all goes well, it’s time to expand sales overseas.
The main strategies include: Large and clear announcement of new delivery areas. Overseas shoppers are waiting, please inform them that they are ready to provide services! Promote news releases and social media services to as many people as possible. Study local cultural norms and sales skills. Please use the appropriate language in the appropriate type of advertising to attract the attention of local customers. What’s more important is to confirm whether you have accidentally hurt the other party’s mood. Local translators and marketing companies can be good investments to help you understand the best way to access the market. Explain all strategies in advance to build trust with customers. Make sure you have a very clear return policy, privacy policy and terms of use page, and allow you to easily access all of these contents in multiple languages on the website. If the freight is added to the total payment and the return option is clearly indicated, fewer shopping carts will be discarded. Provide additional return time for overseas customers, and work with distribution partners to understand the working mode of the process and be ready. The rest is just watching the online business grow into new countries and new markets. With the help of woocommerce and DHL, it is time to expand e-commerce business beyond the country.
