Planning notes

## Use the actual quotation scope

Treat the supplier quote as the starting amount. Enter additional charges only when they are not already included.

- Record the agreed delivery basis and named place from the contract.

- Use the same currency for every amount and retain the conversion date separately.

- Enter zero for charges already included in the quote; leave unconfirmed costs out of the final funding decision.

Planning notes

## Gather route and import inputs

Ask the forwarder and local customs adviser for written estimates using the final packing list and destination.

- Verify shipment dimensions, chargeable volume, route and delivery location.

- Enter duties and import taxes as amounts supplied by your adviser; this tool does not infer tax rates.

- Include terminal handling, local delivery, unloading and installation only once.

Planning notes

## Review before committing

The total is the sum of entered amounts. It does not price unknown charges or establish customs treatment.

- Recalculate when the equipment, exchange basis, shipment or delivery terms change.

- Check recoverable taxes and accounting treatment with your own adviser.

- Copy the summary into an enquiry when requesting a more detailed scope review.

Put it into practice

## Your project preparation checklist

- Supplier quote and delivery scope are available.

- Forwarder estimate matches the packing list and route.

- Tax and duty amounts have a documented source.

- Already included costs are entered as zero.

- Unknown charges are listed separately for follow-up.

## Questions & answers

Why are all inputs blank?

The tool avoids inventing rates or project prices. Enter your own quoted amounts, including zero where a charge is already included.

Is the result a customs or supplier quotation?

No. It is a total of the amounts you entered. Ask the relevant supplier, forwarder and local adviser to confirm the underlying costs.
