Import agents of coral bone must pay special attention to compliance: If the coral bone involves endangered species (such as some coral varieties)，they must obtain import and export permits in accordance with the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES)，and verify in advance whether the species are on the controlled list. The HS code must be accurately classified (such as 95089000，etc.)，and the customs will strictly verify the consistency between the documents and the goods. At the same time，it is necessary to obtain animal and plant quarantine permits (if applicable)，otherwise the goods may be detained，face fines，or even criminal liability. It is essential to ensure that the goods come from legal sources and avoid involvement in illegal transactions.

In terms of logistics operations, Coral Bone recommends selecting sea freight (due to its large batch size and low cost), which requires special packaging to prevent damage. For customs clearance, you need to provide endangered species certificates, quarantine certificates, commercial invoices, packing lists, bills of lading, etc. It is advisable to work with experienced customs brokers and freight forwarders who are familiar with customs supervision requirements to avoid delays due to incomplete documentation. Logistics costs should cover packaging, transportation, customs clearance, and quarantine, etc. Confirm the quotation with the freight forwarder in advance to ensure timeliness and safety.

During business negotiations, first clarify the client's intended use (decoration, aquariums, etc.) and demonstrate compliance and logistics expertise. For payment methods, recommend letters of credit or collections to reduce risks. Contract terms should clearly define compliance responsibilities, customs clearance obligations, and delivery timelines (e.g., if customs clearance delays occur due to client-provided materials, the responsibility lies with the client). Emphasize service advantages (compliance consulting, one-stop logistics services), and provide clear operational processes and timelines during communication to enhance client trust.
