Como importar materiais de construção da China

Importing building materials from China can save you 30-50% compared to local suppliers — but it requires careful planning.

Step 1: Find Reliable Suppliers

Start with platforms like Alibaba and Made-in-China, but always verify suppliers through video calls and third-party inspections.

Step 2: Quality Control

Never skip pre-shipment inspection. Hire a third-party QC company or work with a sourcing agent who can visit factories.

Step 3: Shipping & Logistics

Choose between FCL (full container) and LCL (less than container). Plan 30-45 days for sea freight plus customs clearance.

Step 4: Customs Clearance

Work with a licensed customs broker. Prepare all documents: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and certificates of origin.
