# Importer assistant

Send your invoice, packing list, forwarder quote or bill of lading. You get back at most three findings, ranked: first anything that would stop clearance, then money, then time.


## What you send

- Commercial invoice and packing list from the factory
- The forwarder's quote
- The bill of lading, when you have it

## What comes back

| Axis | Example |
|---|---|
| Cost | "Your quote is 12% above the median of 5 forwarders on this lane." Duty and tax estimate for the destination. |
| Risk | "Invoice and packing list weights do not match." "This product needs a conformity certificate in Saudi Arabia." |
| Speed | "Get the certificate of origin before the goods arrive." |

The numbers in this table are examples.

## Rules we keep

- At most three findings and one next step. Details and sources only when you ask.
- Every number is an estimate, not a bookable price or a customs ruling.
- If we have fewer than three rate sources for your lane, we say so and leave rates out.


## FAQ

**What can an importer send?**

The commercial invoice, packing list, the forwarder's quote and the bill of lading, as PDF, photo or Excel.

**Is my quote shared with forwarders?**

No. Your quote is shown only to you. It enters the anonymous market median only if you explicitly agree.
