Introduction
The bonded warehouse is the core component of the cross-border e-commerce 1210 bonded inventory model. Products are shipped in bulk to domestic bonded warehouses in advance; after consumers place orders, items are dispatched directly from these warehouses, with delivery times ranging from 1 to 3 days. Understanding the requirements and processes for inbound operations at bonded warehouses is essential for brands to successfully launch their cross-border e-commerce businesses.
