Check the importer's invoice details first
Andorra's government states that invoices must include the tax registration number. Before placing an order, send your importing company's details to your own Andorran customs broker and obtain the wording to give the seller. Ask the broker to review a draft invoice before dispatch.
Our guide for buyers outside the UK explains the general sourcing arrangement. For Andorra, begin your shipment file with the broker-approved importer details, named handover point and document checklist.
Name the seaport or border point in the quote
Andorra is landlocked. We quote to the seaport or border point you name, with the onward leg agreed separately. Specify the delivery term and ask for freight, insurance, destination handling and exclusions to be identified. Agree who arranges collection and transport from the quoted handover point.
If considering a route through Spain or France, use the Spain guide or France guide for the relevant arrival discussion. Ask your broker to confirm the route for an Andorran destination before booking freight.
Give your own broker the arrival brief
The European Commission confirms the customs union between the European Community and Andorra. For your Chinese goods, ask your broker to check its scope and the appropriate clearance or transit arrangements for the proposed route. Request a written explanation of where each procedure will be completed.
Agree that your own customs broker handles the arrival declaration, classification, origin and customs value checks, applicable duties and taxes, and clearance queries. Your broker confirms the final entry. Before production, also ask them to identify any product-specific permissions, certification, labelling or instructions to include in the factory brief.
Prepare the document pack in China
The Chinese factory supplies product descriptions, quantities, packing data and available test reports. We coordinate the commercial invoice from the agreed seller and the factory's packing list. Where your broker requests a certificate of origin, we arrange it as agreed after the broker confirms the acceptable issuer and form.
Send drafts to the broker before shipment. Compare names, descriptions, quantities, weights and delivery terms against the order. Match test reports to the actual model, materials and configuration; obtain any additional testing agreed for the order. Approve packaging artwork before printing and provide the transport document when available.

Check the supplier and inspect before release
Our own staff in China check supplier identity, the production site and manufacturing capability against your specification. We compare the quoted company, business licence and payment details, and investigate discrepancies. Use our buy-through-UK-company service to agree the purchasing counterparty and sourcing scope.
Before shipment, we inspect the batch against the approved sample and written acceptance criteria, covering agreed quantity, workmanship, function, labels and packaging. We report discrepancies for your release decision. Factory audits and inspections are usually included in the quote; complex checks that need a third party are charged separately and agreed in advance.
