SHIPTALLY / TASK ROUTE

Sell Cross-Border

Price international sales with the landed cost, tax/duty promise, platform fees, returns and delivery responsibility visible before the customer clicks buy.

START HERE

Start with the economics, then make the customer promise match the logistics.

01Check the goods

Confirm the commodity route and live measures before you build the promise.

02Know stock cost

Get the imported unit cost right before pricing.

03Test the margin

Add marketplace, fulfilment and refund costs.

04Set responsibility

Know who pays, carries risk and handles border formalities.

05Ship cleanly

Make the commercial document usable for the carrier and border.

WHAT THE MARKET EXPECTS

No surprise charges at the door.

Cross-border platforms increasingly make landed costs and duty/tax responsibility visible before checkout. If you cannot offer that automatically, your pricing and customer wording still need to make the likely outcome clear.

Landed cost

Do not price from supplier cost alone.

DAP / DDP

Customer experience changes dramatically depending on who pays import charges.

VAT & marketplaces

Low-value and marketplace rules depend on the exact transaction, not one universal threshold.

Returns

Plan the cost and customs route for refused or returned goods before scaling.
