Buyer Checklist

Supplier Verification Checklist

Core checks before samples, deposits or long-term supplier commitments.

  1. Confirm legal company identity and export registration.
  2. Match website, address, contact details and commercial documents.
  3. Request recent product photos, not only catalogue images.
  4. Ask for references, certifications and export document samples.
  5. Clarify production capacity, lead time and subcontracting risk.
  6. Define sample approval and pre-shipment inspection steps.
