The Port of Constanta in Romania is the largest port along the Black Sea coast and a strategic gateway for Chinese goods to enter the Balkan and Central Eastern European markets. However, the export of branded clothing and textiles to Romania is facing multiple policy overlaps: the cancellation of EU tariff exemptions, the introduction of local logistics taxes in Romania, and the increase in value-added tax. These three new policies are being implemented simultaneously. Branding, compliance, and formal customs clearance have become the only options. Andaxun International Logistics has been deeply involved in the export of clothing and textiles from Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Dongguan for many years. We provide full container load/less than container load (FCL), double clearance and tax inclusive, and door-to-door one-stop services to help you go global in compliance.
