These two concepts are common for the sphere of international economic relations. However, not all ordinary citizens clearly understand the difference between them.

If the goods are exported from the country

Any country strives to expand its exports. If she sells the goods she needs abroad, she gets the currency. In turn, for the currency, the country purchases the foreign goods it needs. The one who sells goods abroad is called an exporter, and the one who buys them is called an importer.

When exporting goods (services), the exporter is exported abroad, and he is not obliged to return them back. Together with the operations of importing goods, exports form the basis of international trade.

Export can be done through:

• Export of products that are manufactured, grown or mined in the territory of the exporter.
• Deliveries to another country of semi-finished products or raw materials for processing there.
• Export of products received from other countries for sale in third countries.
• Rendering foreign companies production or consumer services
• Capital investment in own foreign production.

The legislation of a particular country may also refer to other products that cross the customs border of the exporter as export. Often, goods intended for export to one state are adapted for sale in others or to be sold on the domestic market. Re-export is also used, which involves the import of raw materials or semi-finished products with their subsequent sale without processing in international markets.

Almost two hundred countries are engaged in export. Twelve of them account for about 60 percent of world trade. Of these, Germany, China, the US and Japan export one-third of what these twelve countries sell. The first place in terms of exports is occupied by the European Union.

What is import

Import assumes delivery of goods and services from abroad without obligation to take them back. The difference in the volume of exports and imports shows the balance of the country's foreign trade, and their sum is the turnover of trade. The calculation of imports is done taking into account the cost of goods, freight and insurance costs. Therefore, the value of exports in the world is reduced by the sum of these costs. Foreign suppliers of goods to the country provide their high quality and the price is lower than that of local manufacturers. They usually import products that are not available in the importer's home market.

Various import schemes are used, including searching around the world for promising products for import and sale, foreign suppliers offering the most low prices. Today, schemes of import operations with the participation of a local distributor and a manufacturer abroad are widespread, when the goods are purchased without intermediaries directly from the manufacturer.

Usually the state seeks to regulate imports. For this, quotas, duties, minimum import prices, technical obstacles, import taxes, etc. are used. This is usually done to create preferences. domestic manufacturer and replenishment of the budget. Such a policy is called protectionist. At liberal politics restrictions are minimal.

How exports and imports are regulated

In each state and at the international level, exports and imports are regulated. In most countries, this is done by the government and the ministry of commerce or foreign economic activity. They are governed by special legislation. Companies that export their products have special foreign trade divisions. Financing of foreign trade operations is usually carried out by specialized banks.

The functions of regulating international trade relations in 1995 were assigned to the World Trade Organization (WTO), which is a UN agency. It declares the principle of free exchange of goods and services in the world, which helps to ensure the development of the economy and the growth of people's well-being. It includes more than one and a half hundred states, which together have 95% of the turnover of goods and services in the world.

Its task is to eliminate restrictions and obstacles in trade relations between countries. It is guided by the general agreements signed by all member states on trade in goods and services and intellectual property rights.

For this WTO:

1. Analyzes compliance with the requirements of its policy documents of the members of the organization.
2. Considers disputes between states in terms of their foreign trade policy.
3. Organizes interaction with other international bodies.
4. Provides assistance to countries whose economies are developing.

What is the difference

Export is the activity aimed at exporting goods and services produced in it abroad by the exporting country. Such activity is stimulated by the state.

Import means the legal importation of goods from abroad. Often, states, in the interests of their companies, impose restrictions on imports.

Russians have recently been ordering goods from other countries more and more often, especially on popular sites such as Aliexpress, Buyincoins and Ebay. It also happens that someone has relatives or acquaintances abroad, and they send gifts or just parcels to you in Russia. Delivery of goods across the territory of our country is carried out by the Russian Post or other postal companies, and the goods are transported through the territory of the sender by local carriers. When approaching the recipient, the status of the shipment changes, which is displayed in the online package tracking service. In the article we will tell you what the status "export from the country of departure" and all the others mean, as well as what to do if the package is lost or "stuck" somewhere.

Through which services can you track postal items

The most common and popular service was created by the Russian Post, it is called "Russian Post. Tracking postal items". There you need to enter the parcels and confirm that you are not a robot. The system will show where in this moment the package is located. But, unfortunately, recently on the same "Aliexpress" the numbers of departures began to be issued in such a way that it is impossible to track them through the website of the Russian Post. Instead, you can use others.

So, there are sites for tracking goods specifically from China, since parcels from there are now very a large number of. It is called Track24 and is located on the site of the same name, there are also 17track and ALITRACK. The last 3 do not request a check for a robot, but immediately look for the location of the parcel by the entered mailing number. The 17track service also shows the approximate date of arrival at the recipient's post office.

If the product disappeared from the tracking service or hung somewhere at one point on long time, then it is possible that they forgot to add it to the program and you will no longer be able to track its movements until notification will come from the mail that the parcel has been delivered. In this case, you can write to the seller, attaching a screen from the Russian Post. Postal Tracking service or any other where the problem is shown. After the delivery period has expired, the seller, with your consent, or you yourself, can extend the delivery period or return the money for obvious reasons. Money is usually returned quickly (within 3-5 days) to the card or account from which the payment was made, although not the first time. Sometimes the seller has to write several times to get the money back, or even contact the support service, because the seller does not get in touch. It also happens that the money is returned or the goods are ordered again, and the one that was lost comes.

Preparing for shipping

This means that a package consisting of one or more items is being assembled or already completed and is being prepared for shipment. The preparation process also includes paperwork and labeling of parcels. Also at this stage, the seller checks whether the payment for the purchase has been made and passed.

"Export from the country of origin"

This is the second status that the parcel acquires during transportation, unless otherwise provided by the seller or transport company. "Export from the country of departure" literally means export from that country. This means that the parcel has a long delivery path ahead.

The time that is given for the delivery of goods to the buyer usually begins to be counted from the status "export from the country of departure". How long to wait for a parcel is often written when placing an order: some goods arrive within 30 days, and some within 90. Therefore, you should carefully read the delivery conditions when placing and subsequent payment for the order. If the parcel is sent by your friend from another country, then the wait is much less, these usually reach 10-20 days.

Arrival in destination country

When the export from the country of origin is completed, i.e. the goods have left the country of the seller and crossed the border, the status of the parcel changes. There can be 2 options here: either the goods immediately appear in the capital's sorting center, or they will be located in the border, but already Russian city, next to the border that it crossed. One way or another, it will have the status "arrived in the territory of the Russian Federation" or "imported to the country of destination" in the tracking services.

Arrival at the sorting center

Sorting centers are huge premises in major city, into which parcels and letters fall for their further distribution and sending to smaller points or to regional post offices. When a product is exported from the country of origin, it is already determined where it will go next, to which city, sorting center and post office.

In the sorting center, parcels are processed automatically, since it is almost impossible to process a huge number of boxes and packages manually, so it is important that the index is written correctly (the address is not read here), otherwise the parcel will go to another place.

Arrival at the point of issue

When the purchased goods have passed all the stages of transportation, it goes to the post office closest to the buyer. Within a few days, postal employees write out a receipt and bring it to the recipient in the mailbox. If the addressee does not arrive within a week, a second notice is issued. A parcel that has lain unclaimed for a month is sent back.

If a person tracked the parcel through online services and saw that it was in place, he may not wait for a notification, but come to the post office with the departure number and, calling it and presenting a passport, receive a box with the purchased goods.

If he missed all the notifications and did not follow the status for a long time, then when trying to understand where the package is, he may see the status "export from the country of departure" again, but now this country will be Russia, which means that the purchase went back. Only a dialogue with the seller will help here, he can stop the return shipment or send the goods again. But not all sellers agree to this, so if you are waiting for a package from abroad, do not rely on notifications from the post office, but check the location of the goods yourself.

EXPORT

EXPORT

(exports) Goods and services produced in the country and sold to non-residents. "Visible" exports include deliveries of goods abroad; "Invisible" exports are services sold to non-residents. Some "invisible" exports, such as shipping and air transport, are represented by services provided abroad. As for other items of "invisible" exports, they consist of the services of hotels, hospitals, universities, casinos, etc., provided to non-residents who arrived in the country. For some services, such as insurance, it is not possible to determine where the service is provided. The export of capital means the provision of loans to non-residents or the purchase of real assets located abroad. The export of capital should not be confused with the export of capital goods. Some countries export both capital and capital goods, but nothing prevents a country from exporting capital without producing capital goods at all (this is the case for some oil exporting countries), while many industrialized countries are both exporters of capital goods and importers of capital in the form of foreign loans.

Export is understood as the export of goods, technologies, services abroad for their sale in a foreign market. Goods made in the country and goods imported into the country and processed in it can be exported. A special form of export is re-export, i.e. exports of earlier imported goods that were not subject to conversion in that country.

Export of goods- This is a special customs regime, which is characterized by the export of certain goods outside the country, that is, beyond its borders, with the main goal of selling them on the foreign market. Of course, not only goods can be exported, but also such important “products” as services and capital.

But basically export of goods- this is nothing more than the export of various material goods abroad or the provision of various services (material and intellectual) to a partner, or rather a foreign partner, on a reimbursable basis. Export also arises as a result of the international division of labor, in addition, it is one of the material prerequisites for imports. It is known that it is the proceeds from exports that are the main source of material resources for the purchase of imports. In fact, all import and export operations are interconnected.

Export of goods must be carried out in accordance with certain requirements, which are indicated in the legislation of a particular country. First, when exporting, export customs duties and fees are paid. Secondly, the export of goods requires compliance with certain financial and economic policy and security measures, as well as other requirements provided for by the Code and various legislative acts countries by customs. You should also pay attention to such an important point: those goods that are released under the customs regime for export must be exported outside the country in the condition in which they were at the time of acceptance. customs declaration. The exception is goods that have changed as a result of normal wear and tear, or goods that have changed, but when properly transported or stored.

Goods falling under the export category require declaration and special customs clearance in a general manner and at the same time, taking into account the features and specifics of this customs regime. Basic Tools state regulation export of goods abroad (export of goods) is tax and tariff regulation, currency control and, of course, various non-tariff facilities. The export of goods is a rather complicated procedure in the field of foreign economic activity, which is why these tools exist.

Export of goods It also has its own specific tariff, presented in the form of a whole set of government decrees, which contain certain rates of duties on the export of goods, a list of these goods, and also there are all the provisions for changing these decrees. Export tariff rates for certain types goods are established by the government of the country, and are not subject to special regulation by the customs and tariff authorities. In accordance with certain legislative acts, the export of goods, or rather some of them, is characterized by the presence of certain tariff preferences, which are established by certain legislative acts, as well as acts of the government and the president. Export of goods, as a rule, has its own specific duties. They depend, first of all, on the FEACN of goods. AT modern world there is a so-called non-tariff regulation of the export of goods, that is, licensing and quotas. The export of some goods requires a special package of documents and permits. For example, when exporting cultural property, one should have a special certificate issued by the service for the preservation of cultural property of the country.

On the way from China, your package will be waiting for one stage, which Aliexpress buyers call the "Bermuda Triangle". And in fact, the parcel goes for export, for some time the tracking statuses do not change. And visually it seems that the package just disappeared somewhere. Moreover, the postal company that carried your order to the border no longer has information about the parcel, since they handed over the parcel and then it will go by local mail. And the local mail still does not have information, since the package has not yet reached them.

How many days to wait for import?

Of course, the question immediately arises, how many days do you need to wait from export to import? Which terms are considered normal, and which ones already indicate that the package is stuck with the ends and something needs to be done.

Let's turn to the official documents. In the regulations of the Universal Postal Union, the standard terms for the parcel to pass the stage export Import not marked in any way. That is, no regulatory deadlines no, and you can't make any claims. And even the seller himself can only, from his own experience, roughly tell the usual time in which the parcel arrives in a given country.

If you are lucky, the package can go through export-import in 3-6 days. On average, this stage lasts 2-3 weeks. During periods of New Year's Eve congestion, parcels may get stuck on this stage for a month or more.

In some cases, with a large load of mail and when the parcel passes through very "slow" sorting points, the parcel may hang for 2-3 months. That is why mediators believe that a parcel to Russia and neighboring countries can go within 90 days and are usually asked to wait for this period before returning the money for the reason "".

Why do parcels hang on export-import?

Your parcel is sent by a postal company to the border of China. Then it is transferred to customs and the status "Export" appears. The first delay may be at customs if there is a traffic jam. The second delay may occur after customs clearance, when the parcel is distributed to the correct container, where it will wait for its flight. Also, she can wait until this container is completely filled. And it is not known how long it will take until the goods physically leave China.

Further, upon arrival at the country of destination, the parcel will wait for its turn to go through customs at the temporary storage warehouse. How long she will spend here is impossible to predict. Maybe a few days, maybe months. Everything will depend again on the workload of customs.

The "Import" status appears when the goods are transferred to customs, or when they have already passed customs clearance and entered the mail sorting center of the country of the recipient.

Parcel stuck in export. When to open a dispute?

If at the stage of export-import your order freezes, the tracking statuses do not change, then the idea immediately arises to open a dispute. But in fact, if the track was tracked earlier and it is clear that the parcel was sent, then the dispute should be opened no earlier than 2-3 days before the delivery deadline.

If you open earlier, then both the seller and mediators will insist that you wait for your goods before a certain date.
