The difficulties that foreign trade companies often encounter in international logistics include the following aspects:

1. Supply chain visibility: foreign trade companies need to track and manage the transportation and delivery process of the entire supply chain, but because different logistics partners and links are involved, there may be problems of information asymmetry and insufficient visibility.

2. Documents and supporting documents: International trade involves a large number of documents and supporting documents, such as commercial invoices, packing lists, shipping insurance policies, etc. Foreign trade companies need to prepare and manage these documents and ensure that they meet the requirements of the destination country.

3. Customs compliance: Different countries and regions have different customs regulations, and foreign trade companies need to understand and abide by these regulations. Customs procedures, tariff calculations, import and export licenses and other matters require compliance operations by foreign trade companies.

4. Transportation cost and timeliness: The cost of international logistics is one of the important considerations for foreign trade companies. Shipping costs are affected by different shipping methods, cargo characteristics, and the tariff policy of the destination country. In addition, timeliness is also the focus of foreign trade companies. Accurately estimating the arrival time of goods and maintaining the stability of the supply chain is one of the challenges.

5. Transnational communication and language barriers: foreign trade companies need to communicate with multiple international partners such as suppliers, customers, logistics companies and customs, and may face problems such as language, cultural and time zone differences, and need to respond flexibly.

6. Risk management: There are various risks in international logistics, such as cargo loss, damage, delay, piracy, etc. Foreign trade companies need to take measures to manage these risks, such as purchasing cargo insurance, choosing reliable logistics partners, etc.

7. Logistics technology and digital transformation: foreign trade companies can use logistics technology and digital platforms to improve logistics efficiency and visibility, but they may face challenges in technology selection, cost input and training when adopting new technologies and digital transformation.
