Payment Terms
Anping Qinghe DOES NOT accept Credit Cards. We only accept the following two ways:
Way1：50% by T/T to confirm the order, 50% by T/T before shipping.
90% of our orders are handled in this payment term. As for most of the orders, when Anping Qinghe start an order, Anping Qinghe need to pay full payment of the material cost. 50% of the total contract value is only part of the material cost, Anping Qinghe also need to invest certain amount to money to book and get the material. All of Anping Qinghe’s quotation is based on this payment terms unless otherwise specified.
Way 2: Anping Qinghe accept L/C at sight under certain circumstance.
Certain countries’ governments mandate that payments to foreign corporations be made under L/C; businesses from these nations are restricted to making L/C payments. In this instance, Anping Qinghe accepts L/C at sight; an additional USD 700 will be billed in addition to the order total. Anping Qinghe does not advise L/C payment terms if the customer’s government has no restrictions on foreign currency, since banks on both sides bear the majority of the USD 700 cost. However, Anping Qinghe will have to put in a lot of work on paper.
