Checklist

• Keep certificates current and filed against the exact model name.
• Verify that artwork matches the approved compliance template.
• Record the arrival condition with photographs on the day of delivery.
• Retain one sealed sample carton from every batch for reference.
• Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.
• Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.

Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.

Agreeing a defect handling procedure before the first shipment removes emotion from later conversations.

Frequently asked questions

Should Autopod Lite be discounted to launch?

A short introductory offer works; repeated hardware discounting damages the perceived value of the range.

Is documentation provided for customs?

Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.

How quickly can a repeat order be produced?

For established configurations production typically runs two to four weeks, with transit on top depending on the chosen method.

What happens if a batch fails inspection?

The agreed procedure normally covers replacement of affected units or credit against the next order, documented before shipment.

Final word

None of this is complicated, but it does need to be written down and reviewed on a schedule.
