The governments use pre-shipment inspection agencies’ services for a variety of
reasons, including to prevent capital flight or undervaluation of imports and to
compensate for the inadequacies in customs and other administrative structures.
The Agreement on Pre-shipment Inspection was negotiated in the Uruguay Round. The
Agreement on Pre-shipment Inspection recognizes that the principles and obligations of
the GATT 1994 and other WTO (World Trade Organization) Agreements apply to pre-
shipment inspection agencies’ activities which are mandated by governments.
However you transport your products, you need to be certain that they arrive as
