Documentation & Compliance
Prepare and review all necessary export documentation, including bills of lading, commercial invoices, and customs paperwork, ensuring accuracy and compliance with Incoterms.
Shipment Tracking & Issue Resolution
Monitor cargo movements closely, proactively addressing any delays, documentation issues, or exceptions during transit.
