How Do I Hire Experts Only for Getting EDN/CRN?

An export declaration number (EDN) is what an exporter receives after submitting an export declaration to the Customs. Another important entity is the consolidation reference number (CRN) . This validates a submanifest under which different consignments are consolidated. Both these numbers are issued by the Customs and are important throughout the export process. If you are an exporter, you must obtain them as a part of the export documentation process.

If you lack time and knowledge to apply for EDN and CRN, you can hire an expert in preparing export documents. Now, the question is whether it is possible to use expert services only for this purpose or do you need to buy the full documentation services?

Look for Customized Service Providers

There are many firms in Australia that offer flexible documentation services to the exporters. What you need to do is to search for the firms that offer customized services according to the individual needs of different export businesses. By choosing one of them, you can:
  • Assign them the task to submit an export declaration for obtaining EDN and CRN
  • Take care of the rest of the documentation needs by yourself
  • Pay only for the hired service and save money in the process
  • Avoid training your staff for these services
  • Use the expert service once or for all export consignments in the future
In short, they won’t insist you sign any long-term contracts. This means you are outsourcing a part of the documentation process to someone who can help you save time and money.

How to Choose the Right Service?

Before you select a service provider in this direction, make sure to compare various options to:
  • Check their experiences and go with the one having expertise in the international trade documentation service
  • Find out which one offers complete transparency and security in the process
  • Choose the firm which is available round the clock and via different modes
  • Know what do they charge and whether you need to pay monthly or after every assignment
It would be even better to choose a firm which offers documentation services for other trade documents as well in case you need them in the future.
