Don’t Want to Assume Risk? Go With a Shipping Expert!

International commerce has never been more turbocharged.  Because of the Internet and sites such as eBay have made many secondary markets available to people wherever there might be a port of call.  Of course, this also means that you have to figure out how to handle international shipping.  But don’t let that put you off purchasing that classic car.  There are plenty of situations where you may not want to assume certain kinds of risk.  In these instances, you are better off going with an expert in the international shipping industry.

Purchasing from the United States offers a wealth of opportunities, particularly in the vehicle market.  Whether it is a new release or a luxury car, the United States has a thriving market.  But you may not want to assume the buyer’s credit risk in this scenario.


Avoid letter of credit compliance issues or discrepancies upon presentation and avoid any bank delays by going with a shipping expert.  The letter of credit is one of the most important pieces of risk in terms of shipping internationally.  There are certain protections you are entitled to, and we can help you ensure you get them.

By the same token, know your rights as a beneficiary of a letter of credit.  Some banks include language in the contracts that are confusing, restate previous information or are just flat out incorrect.  Some applicants will also request protection clauses that go far beyond what the market requires.  We can analyze what terms should be changed or removed and ultimately what is in your best interests.

Find protection for your vintage car shipment with our expertise.  Just the thought of loading up a vintage car onto a creaky old boat fills many with too much fear to make the purchase.  But in reality, stowing and shipping a vehicle has never been easier.  We have moved many beautiful cars with not a single scratch, and our roll-on/roll-off service is top-notch.

Why not find out what K International can do for you?

New to Shipping Abroad?

It need not seem daunting to ship abroad. Whether you are arranging to move heavy equipment for an important construction project, a vintage automobile or relocating your life overseas, there is no need to stress.  Here are some of the advantages of shipping with K International.

Have your shipping terms reviewed before you even enter into a contract.  Overseas construction, for example, is a lucrative and booming business.  But if you don’t understand your obligations and contract for construction equipment shipping, you are creating problems before they even occur.

Benefit from decades of collective experience in international shipping by going with a tried and true business like K International.  There is no need to learn the ropes yourself the hard way – by making critical and costly mistakes.  In fact, it’s a great idea to consider K International’s services an outsourcing of your staff in some ways; take advantage of the fact that you won’t have a rather steep learning curve.  Improve your productivity.  A daunting project doesn’t have to be that complex.  We can move large-scale heavy equipment shipping – even an entire plant.  We are confident we can handle your project.

Avoid any simple mistakes, such as extending “open account” selling terms to your overseas customer.  Likewise, don’t lock yourself out of business by insisting on prepayment upfront simply because you’re nervous.  A letter of credit is the key to a smooth transaction, and K International can explain the intricacies of these transactions and arrange letters of credit.

With K International, you will receive comprehensive support that you simply couldn’t find on your own.  Whether you need a letter of credit, a consultation, logistics planning or a range of other options, our services extend far beyond simple documentation.  We can even negotiate terms on your behalf and coordinate the execution of your shipping.  Find out how easy this is today!
