Stages of stone export
In these stages, the stone exporter prepares and packages the desired product according to the contract with the buyer in the destination country. Then, he receives the necessary permits from the relevant organizations and bodies so that he can legally export the goods. After preparing the goods and receiving the necessary permits, the goods are transferred to the customs office and receive the export or exit declaration from there. Then, he must make the necessary arrangements to transport the goods to the country of destination, including the provision of suitable means of transport.
After completing these steps, the goods sales invoice is issued by the exporter and approved by the Chamber of Commerce. After checking the invoice, the Chamber of Commerce issues the certificate of origin and allows the exporter to leave the goods. Finally, the shipping company receives the customs clearance permit from the exporter and after loading, transports the goods to the destination country.
Export of stone and its types
Stone is exported in two ways, uncut and cut. Uncut stone is also exported to countries such as Italy, Turkey and China, which are well-known in the field of stone sales. In this case, the stone is exported in raw form to the destination country, where it is cut to add more added value to it. On the other hand, exporting cut stone to other countries is also done. Cutting stone means processing it in factories and producing various components, such as slabs and tiles. This process creates more added value and brings benefits to the destination country.
In the case of exporting uncut stone, it is likely to be subject to duties due to the lack of added value. This means that the stone is exported as a raw commodity and as a result, no more tariffs and duties need to be paid than the export of cut stone. But considering that the rules and regulations of export and import may be different in each country, it is better to get acquainted with the relevant authorities and legal and financial advisors in order to have more accurate and up-to-date information about financial and tax issues in stone export.
