Fitted items require verified measurements and approved drawings. Agree the proposal deliverables and revision terms after the scope is reviewed.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>Can I order for one house?<\/summary><p>A single home can combine accepted orders from several suppliers. Source Foshan\u2019s published service starting point is USD 10,000 in goods; factory minima still apply per model\/finish. A small order needs a delivered-cost comparison before committing.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>Is six months a guaranteed delivery time?<\/summary><p>No. It is the planning horizon in this example. Confirm factory dates, approvals, testing, booked transport, customs and site readiness. Production, ocean transit and installed-room handover are different milestones.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>Can the same process furnish several apartments?<\/summary><p>Yes, with unit\/type codes, an approved sample unit and controlled repeats. Use the whole-house and multi-unit package guide for the separate repeat-unit model; do not multiply a one-home allowance without reviewing specification and packed data.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>How much does one container of furniture cost?<\/summary><p>Its goods value depends on the item schedule. The example contains USD 15,620 in goods at an assumed 45 m\u00b3, not a fixed container price. Freight, services, import charges and installation require additional scoped offers.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>Do all items need a certificate of origin or CE mark?<\/summary><p>No universal document\/mark list fits every shipment. Have the broker identify classification\/origin documents and the responsible adviser identify product-specific compliance. A general furniture description does not determine the requirements for electrical items or fitted systems.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>When should I pay the factory balance?<\/summary><p>Use the accepted PO trigger, with the agreed QC and correction evidence reviewed first where negotiated. The illustrative 30\/70 split is not escrow, and different sellers may require different milestones.<\/p><\/details><details><summary>What is a realistic three-bedroom goods budget?<\/summary><p>Use a defined schedule rather than a universal average. This example is USD 14,420 for Priority groups or USD 15,620 with outdoor, excluding the listed additional costs.
