FAQ

Questions you may care about

Can customs duty and VAT be calculated automatically?

Yes. The system automatically matches duty rates by HS code, adds VAT, consumption tax, surtaxes and more, and fully calculates landed cost (CIF + taxes & fees + inland freight); preferential trade agreement rates (RCEP, free trade zones) are matched automatically.

Can it integrate with China's International Trade Single Window?

Yes. We provide standard integration with the Single Window and the e-port, so import declaration data is entered once and used everywhere, avoiding repeated filing and manual errors; integration typically takes 3-5 business days.

Can international logistics be tracked in real time?

Yes. Full API coverage of mainstream forwarders (Sinotrans, Kerry, Sino-Shipping), shipping lines (MSK, COSCO, Evergreen) and air carriers (FedEx, UPS, DHL), with schedule, clearance and delivery progress sent back in real time.

How are multi-currency payments managed?

Supported. With 30+ built-in real-time FX rates, deposits, balances, freight and insurance are paid in their respective currencies and the system automatically converts to the base currency; FX locking and forward settlement vouchers are supported to reduce FX risk.

Can it integrate with existing ERP/finance systems?

Yes. We provide REST API + Webhook event subscription, with standard integration plans for common ERPs (Yonyou, Kingdee, SAP) and finance systems; purchase orders, landed cost and accounts payable sync bi-directionally.

What are the implementation timeline and pricing roughly?

The standard edition works out of the box and account setup plus initial configuration take just 30 minutes; custom development typically takes 2-6 weeks. For exact pricing, please contact our inquiry hotline 400-003-2253, and we'll tailor a plan based on team size and business complexity.
