对话一是昨天的对话,现补上.

A: How long will it take for our order to be delivered?

商务英语情景口语:进出口

B: Let's see. You are importing fifty containers of textiles from China. They should be able to place your order before the end of next week. It will take 2 days for shipping to the port city of Ningbo. The freight will take 3 weeks on the open ocean and will arrive in Los Angeles approximately a month from today. Domestic shipping will be your responsibility, you can make arrangements with the pier in Los Angeles.

A: Fine, we will handle domestic shipping,but what about customs? Will we have to pay tariff on our imports? I hope we don't run into any problems with the border control.

B: No, the Chinese company has that all worked out. With the paperwork you receive with the shipment,you should be good to go.

要过多长时间我们订的货才能送到?
我看一下....你要从中国进口55个集装箱的纺织品.他们应该在下周末之前下订单.运到宁波港需要两天时间.货运在公海上还需要三周时间,到达洛杉矶的时间从今天算起大约在一个月以后.国内运输由你们自己负责,你们可以和洛杉矶码头达成协议.
很好.我们会处理好国内运输的,可是海关那里怎么办?我们还有交进口税吗?我希望我们在边境检查时不会遇到什么问题.
不好的,这个问题中国公司都解决了.拿到收到的货运信件,你应该会办得很顺利.
