Prepare a useful inquiry
Use this platform to discover candidate companies and products. Check the specific supplier identity, storefront history and relevant platform terms. Platform badges and transaction protections have their own scope; they do not certify a listing on ChinaURL. Do not move payments outside agreed protections on the strength of a directory link.
Check the entity, not just the storefront
Record the exact contracting company name, website and beneficiary details. Ask how the representative is connected to that entity. Compare documents through independent channels and keep a dated copy. A marketplace page, logo or approved profile manager does not prove manufacturing ownership or product compliance. If names or payment instructions change, pause and verify through a previously established contact.
Turn requirements into an accepted sample
Describe materials, dimensions, tolerances, finish, packaging and labeling using a versioned specification. Agree who pays for samples, tooling and revisions. Keep an approved reference and record any permitted differences between a sample and production. Passing one sample does not prove consistency across a production batch; define an inspection plan appropriate to the risk.
