Time elapse between WLC’s receipt of MLK’s CLP and of the goods is basically the delivery time of the goods. For example if the factory in Guangzhou or
Wuhan it takes one an a half day for WLC to receive them, but if the factory located in Nanjing the goods can arrive in two or three hours.
Three hours after receiving the goods WLC notifies MSK-N about the receipt.
It takes about one hour for the empty containers from Longtan Port to arrive at WLC.
It takes one or one and a half hours to finish loading to containers. After loading, containers are sealed within ten minutes.
The containers are then transferres to the port within one hour.
As a result it takes on avarage about three days from the issuance of CLP to custom clearance.
