In reply to Georgina. Hi Georgina, I suggest speaking to your freight forwarder about this question.

Hi, I’m a foreign vendor selling FBA on Amazon.com. We have a full 40ft container being shipped from a foreign port to to the port in New York, . USA
We are sending it to a 3PL after arrival, before shipping to the Amazon fulfilment centre in New Jersey.
We are specifying Amazon as the Ultimate Consignee and will be using their EIN.
Can my foreign company be named as the consignee on the Bill of Lading and for customs clearance, although Amazon is the ultimate consignee?

In reply to Ashley. Hi Ashley, I would let the freight forwarder handle all of that to avoid any issues once your products arrive.

Hi there,
This is our first time shipping to amazon. Hoping you can help us.
We have a full 40ft container being shipped from vietnam to the port in Houston. We then selected fedex to ship our products in seller central to the amazon fulfilment centre in Mississippi from the port.

My freight forwarder has asked the following questions:

-who will do the customs process in the states as there are power of attorney requirements as it can get a bit messy?

-Who will do the clearance?

Is this something my freight forwarder will take care of and their broker? It’s not something fedex will do is it?

Just confused with who does what. The freight forwarder can do it, just wasn’t sure if that was the easiest and most straightforward thing to do.

Thank you!

Hi Clinton,

Yes, that is correct. If shipping through UPS, they will send you a customs invoice to pay.

Hi Brian… a BIG THANKS for all the info. It came at a perfect time. I’ve got a question. I’m just starting out. I’m planning to purchase 300 lightweight toys to sent to amazon fulfillment center. Based on what you said about the option of using ups as its a may well be under the weight you had mentioned. Once my supplier lable the goods, that’s all done in terms of paperworks and all ups would send to me is is the custom duty invoice to be paid, correct?
