OCS will be working with IIE again in 2010
as the official shipper of exhibitor materials
to the IIE fair series. As the IIE fair
official shipper, OCS will keep track of
and store exhibitors’ materials in OCS overseas
stations, and deliver them to the fair venue
one day prior to the event day.
IIE strongly
recommends using OCS as your courier to
ensure customs clearance and safe arrival
directly to the IIE fair venue. Using OCS’s
courier service allows OCS, IIE and you
to track your materials and ensure safe
delivery directly to the venue. Participating
institutions shipping with OCS will not
need to make any international shipments.
Instead, you can forward all your boxes
to the OCS trade fair hub in Boston.
From its Boston
trade fair hub, OCS will take care of the
rest, including address labeling and export
documentation. OCS will pay all duties and
taxes on your behalf overseas and will oversee
customs clearance for you in the receiving
country. Complete shipping instructions
will be emailed to all registered participants
who has chosen to use OCS.
According to the long experience of IIE/Hong
Kong, OCS performs all of these services
seamlessly and automatically for all exhibitors
who choose to ship with OCS. You can always
contact OCS at fairs@shipOCS.com or call toll-free in the U.S. 1-877-2222-OCS,
or from outside the U.S. - 1-781-933-1130.
Note: for
participants NOT using OCS:
Please do NOT ship any materials
to IIE or to fair organizers’ offices. Neither
IIE nor fair organizers, will be able to
assist you to track your shipment before
the fair, or to help on the day of the fair.
If you decide to
use another courier service to ship directly
overseas, note that neither OCS nor IIE
will be able to assist exhibitors to track
or to locate or to assist delivery of shipping
materials. If you have chosen not to use
OCS, it is the responsibility of your carrier
to deliver your materials “door-to-door”
overseas to the fair venue on, or prior
to the fair day. Please make sure your carrier
is able to clear customs in the countries
you ship to, and make sure they can take
care of duty and taxes for you. Please do
NOT ship your materials as “cargo” or “door-to-airport”,
because these services generally do NOT
include customs clearance.
If you ship your fair materials to the hotel
in which you would stay. Please note that
you are responsible for contacting your
hotel to arrange and confirm shipment. Neither
IIE offices nor fair organizers, will be
able to assist you to track or locate delivery
of your shipment, or, to assist if your
packages are delayed in customs or undeliverable
due to improper labeling or other error.
Again, IIE strongly recommends
shipping through OCS to ensure receiving
your shipment to the IIE fair venues on
time.
