First export transaction
There is interest from a foreign buyer, but it is unclear how to check the counterparty, structure the contract, prepare documents, ship and receive payment.
Export Agent
We help you export without building an in-house export department
A first foreign sale often starts as a simple buyer request: price, contract, shipment. In practice, risks appear earlier — the buyer has not been checked, payment terms are vague, documents are not ready, logistics are not aligned and no one is controlling the proceeds. We help structure the export transaction from buyer review to document closing and payment control.
When we step in
We step in when an export opportunity exists, but the company does not yet have a team that can calmly carry the deal through to payment and closing.
Buyer from a new jurisdiction
The buyer looks promising, but the company, deal terms, payment discipline, route and compliance risks need to be checked.
Payment terms are unclear
The buyer asks for deferred payment, partial prepayment or a complex settlement model. The risk of non-payment needs to be understood and limited.
No export department in-house
The producer or supplier is ready to sell abroad, but does not want to hire a separate team for first or occasional transactions.
What we do
We assemble the export transaction into a managed process: buyer, contract, payment, documents, shipment and proceeds control.
We check the buyer
We review the company, jurisdiction, commercial logic of the deal, visible risks and documents needed before signing.
We structure the deal terms
We help fix the product, price, currency, timeline, delivery terms, payment terms, responsibilities and acceptance procedure.
We prepare the export contract
We review the contract structure, annexes, specifications and wording on payment, delivery, documents and claims.
We assemble export documents
We control the invoice, specification, packing list, transport documents, shipment confirmations and closing package.
We support the shipment
We help align logistics, timing, responsibility and documents between the seller, buyer, carrier and internal teams.
We control payment and closure
We track proceeds, the document link between payment and shipment, and materials needed for the bank and currency-control file.
What we don't do
We separate normal export support from risky requests that can create bigger problems than the transaction itself.
We don't look for “any” buyer without checks if the transaction looks commercially or compliance-risky.
We don't structure exports without real goods, a clear seller, buyer and commercial substance.
We don't guarantee payment on behalf of the buyer and don't promise the absence of commercial risk if the deal terms create it.
We don't help bypass currency-control, sanctions, tax or bank procedures.
Which documents are needed
In export, what matters is not one paper but the chain: buyer, contract, goods, shipment, payment and proof of execution.
Product description and specification
Buyer data and documents
Export contract and annexes
Invoice and payment terms
Packing list
Transport documents
Proof of shipment or delivery
Documents for the bank and currency-control file
If the buyer or route is not final yet, we start with the commercial inputs and prepare the list of documents needed before contract signing.

Case from practice
All details are anonymised — client confidentiality matters more than a portfolio.
Export agent: a producer's first foreign sale
Situation
A manufacturing company received a request from a foreign buyer. The company had the product and commercial interest, but no experience with export contracts, buyer checks, document preparation or proceeds control. The buyer asked for flexible payment terms and fast shipment.
What we did
We checked the buyer and commercial logic of the deal, identified payment risks, prepared the export contract structure, document list for shipment and payment control checkpoints. We aligned the action sequence between the seller, buyer, logistics and accounting.
Result
The company received a clear model for its first export deal: what to check before signing, which terms to fix, which documents to prepare and how to control payment after shipment. Later negotiations with foreign buyers used the same template.
FAQ
We can participate in buyer search and initial qualification, but we do not work on the basis of “any buyer at any cost”. The counterparty, goods, route and deal terms must be checkable.
Yes. This is one of the typical cases. We help break the deal into stages: buyer check, payment terms, contract, documents, shipment, proceeds control and closing.
First, the buyer, jurisdiction, amount, payment terms, communication history and documents need to be reviewed. We help identify the risk before signing and fix terms that do not leave critical issues for later.
Yes. It is better to step in before signing. Payment, delivery, document set, party responsibilities and actions in case of delay or claims can then be agreed in advance.
Yes, on the documentary logic of the transaction: contract, invoice, payment, shipment proof and bank explanations should form a clear picture. We do not guarantee bank decisions.
Yes. The service is especially useful when a company does not want to create an export department for first or occasional transactions, but wants to run them professionally and without chaotic correspondence.
