Third-Party Agent
Happy to work with your appointed third-party inspector for neutral, independent reporting.
Your Own Inspector
Send your nominated inspector to the production facility, subject to advance access and scheduling arrangements.
Whichever route you choose, you see the actual batch — not a stock photo or a sample from a different lot — before it ships. For a first order with a new supplier, that visibility is often what closes the deal.
What Pre-Shipment Inspection for Chinese Herbs Checks
Pre-shipment inspection for Chinese herbs can cover batch identity, product specification, quantity, packing, labels, test records and agreed export documents.
If anything falls outside your agreed spec, the batch is held, not shipped. The point of the check is to catch it here, while it’s still fixable.


Why a Final Gate Matters for Chinese Herbs
Final inspections catch issues before shipment — protecting your margins, your timeline, and your reputation. The last check is your best defense against costly surprises.
Paperwork That Travels With the Goods
When a batch is released, its documents go with it — COA, test results and export paperwork, all tied to the batch code. No chasing documents after the container has left.
That paperwork typically includes the Certificate of Analysis, test results, certificate of origin, packing list and commercial invoice — each tied to the batch code, so your customs broker and your QA team are working from the same numbers.
