Name the destination precisely
Provide the country, receiving port and final inland destination. A city name alone can leave the freight route unclear. State whether your business has a clearing agent and where supplier responsibility should end. Ask the relevant local advisers to confirm import requirements for the exact goods before making a commitment.
Discuss assembled and dismantled packing
CBU generally describes a complete built-up machine; SKD describes semi-knocked-down packing. The practical dismantling, packing and reassembly scope must be written down. Ask who provides assembly instructions, tools, consumables and trained labour. Container capacity depends on the actual tractor, tyres, accessories and packing plan, so this site does not promise a fixed number per container.
Request a cost breakdown
Keep equipment, optional attachments, packing, freight and insurance on separate lines. Ask which destination charges are excluded. Record the quoted currency and validity period. When a trade term appears, request the named location and applicable version, then have the contract checked for the actual allocation of cost and risk.
Build a document question list
Ask which invoice, packing list, transport and origin documents the supplier can provide and which import documents your destination requires. Confirm consignee details through your normal business process. Before shipment, agree how identification, packing and inspection evidence will be recorded and shared. Keep original documents and payment instructions in your established secure business channels.
