What is Export licence?

A Chinese manufacturer needs export rights β€” either its own export licence or an export agent β€” to ship goods overseas legally. Factories without them ask the buyer to arrange export through a third party, which adds cost and a layer of risk around who is legally responsible for the shipment. Supplier verification should always confirm export rights before you pay a deposit, not after the goods are sitting at a warehouse with no legal way out.
