1-- How long will it take for our order to be delivered?
2-- Let's see...You are importing fifty containers of textiles from China. They should be able to place your order before the end of next week. It will take 2 days for shipping to the port city of Ningbo. The freight will take 3 weeks on the open ocean, and will arrive in Los Angeles approximately a month from today. Domestic shipping will be your responsibility, you can make arrangements with the pier in Los Angeles.
1-- Fine. We will handle domestic shipping, but what about customs? Will we have to pay tariff on our imports? I hope we don't run into any problems with the border control.
2-- No, the Chinese company has that all worked out. With the paperwork you receive with the shipment, you should be good to go.

1--要過多長時間我們訂的貨才能送到?
2--我看一下…你要從中國進口50個集裝箱的紡織品.他們應該在下周末之前下訂單.運到寧波需要兩天時間.貨運在公海上還需要三周時間,到達洛杉磯的時間從今天算起大約在一個月以后.國內運輸有你們自己負責,你們可以和洛杉磯碼頭達成協(xié)議.
1--很好.我們會處理好國內運輸的,可是海關那里怎么辦?我們還要交進口稅嗎?我希望我們在邊境檢查時不會遇到什么問題.
2--不會的,這個問題中國公司都解決了.拿著受到的貨運文件,你應該會辦得很順利.
