How we work with buyers
- You inspect first. You or your appointed inspector see the goods in person, take samples and arrange the assay or grading.
- You pay after the contract. Payment is by T/T only, once you are satisfied and the contract is signed. We never ask for advance fees, deposits or “registration” payments, and we do not work on letters of credit.
- We deliver CIF or DDP. CIF to your port, or DDP to your premises, with the documents your market requires.
- Precious metals and minerals are traceable. For gold, coltan and other metals we provide traceability and due-diligence documents and an SKR (safe keeping receipt). Always verify an SKR directly with the custodian that issued it.
Certifications and registrations
- Sunflower, palm, soybean and canola oils: Halal, TBS (Tanzania Bureau of Standards) and ISO 22000/HACCP certified; palm, soybean and canola oil inspected by SGS before shipment.
- Registered with China Customs (GACC) as an overseas exporter of food products.
- Mineral export permits held for our copper concentrate; gold licences held and shared with verified buyers.
Copies of certificates are provided with offers. If a document you receive in our name cannot be verified with its issuer, do not rely on it and tell us. See how to verify Tamim International before you buy.
