Important Rules for Every Korea Shipment

To ensure a smooth process and avoid any loss or delay, please adhere to these guidelines:

  • ✔ Use Barcode Labels Only: Insist that your supplier uses our official online form. Do not allow them to write on the boxes by hand. Manually labeled boxes can be lost or misrouted in our logistics system.
  • ✔ Require Photo Proof: For your security, ask your supplier to send you a clear photo of your boxes with the barcode labels properly attached before they are dispatched. This is your proof of correct labeling.
  • ✔ Follow for All Orders: Use this exact process for every order, whether it's with a new supplier or a repeat partner.

Note: HBK Global Trading is not responsible for any loss of cargo due to unmarked or improperly labeled boxes.
