Commercial Inspection.

International trade is a mainstay for most companies in today’s economy. This involves in many occasions long distance agreements. Those may raise possible uncertainties when business agreements are being concluded. Therefore, traders (buyers, sellers, manufacturers) often demand for a third party inspection in terms of quantity, quality, condition or price to mitigate possible risks or non-fulfillment of contractual agreements. Considering the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, where travels are limited whilst international trade continues, “Commercial Inspections” can be a solution to bring about a piece-of-mind for international business activities, as well.

TÜV Rheinland is your reliable partner to achieve this confidence on your transacted goods.

  • Delivery and completeness verification
  • Quantity verification
  • Condition check of consignment and its goods
  • Loading and off-loading supervision
  • Letter of Credit (LOC) inspections
