A: How long will it take for our order to be delivered?
B: 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.
A: 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.
B: No, the Chinese company has that all worked out. With the paperwork you receive with the shipment, you should be good to go.要過多長時間我們訂的貨才能送到?

很好.我們會處理好國內(nèi)運輸?shù)?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.
