Benjam Posted January 25, 2005 Share Posted January 25, 2005 (edited) HI there, Im actually looking to import hardware from Indonesia and pay using SWIFT and my HSBC account. This forum is the closest place I have found so I hope you guys can help. I have found a supplier from the alibaba with a trust pass but I need to know the following: 1. Are there any laws on importing that I should be aware of. I would be importing one product first (sample) at £880 cost. I am an individual trader. 2. What are the potential pit falls I should be aware of, anyone with experience of Indonesian trade? The reason why im doing it is because the price of the goods I require are very cheap to the fact they are in U.S Dollars $1650. So it makes sense to import as they are also desirable goods and sell here for at least £1,300. The goods come with a warranty and are a popular computer make/model. Many Thanks, Ben.

Axel Posted January 27, 2005 Share Posted January 27, 2005 Importing from Indonesia to UK might be a bit outside of the range of this forum. But have a look around here: http://www.hmce.gov.uk/channelsPortalWebAp...l=pageHome_Main Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
