Hey guys,

I would appreciate a little help from you guys with some experience in importing. I want to go travel but still be able to import products to the Netherlands from China while traveling and I'm wondering whether that is possible for me. The thing that determines that is mostly how much it would cost to outsource the inspection of the batch for quality and the likes.

Is it customary or better to have the products/batch inspected before it leaves China? Or is it better to have it inspected when it has arrived in the Netherlands instead? Or is it really necessary to do both?

If it is better to have it inspected in the Netherlands, then how many hours would a prepping company need to inspect let's say a batch of 100 pieces of nightlamps? I don't know wether it is needed to inspect all 100 of them or not. If I have a very rough ballpark of how much time is needed, then I can calculate the cost for the inspection.

I just need a very rough estimation to decide whether traveling is an option at all.

Thank you very much in advance!
