Importer & Exporter of Record (IOR / EOR) Questions
What is an Importer of Record?
An Importer of Record (IOR) is the party legally responsible for bringing goods into a country, ensuring compliance, filing customs, and paying duties. The A2B Link network can serve as your IOR where you have no local entity.
What is the difference between IOR and EOR?
An IOR is responsible for legally importing goods into a destination country; an EOR (Exporter of Record) is responsible for legally exporting goods out of the origin country. We provide both.
Do I need my own entity in the country?
No. That is the point of IOR/EOR, the A2B Link network becomes the legal importer or exporter so you can trade without establishing a local entity.
