FAQ

Ordering Wuyao

Can I get samples before ordering?

Yes. Samples are arranged by variety once your inquiry is confirmed, so that you can check the actual goods — form, specification and batch documents — before committing to an order. Small trial samples are provided free of charge; the buyer covers the international courier cost. Where a larger sample quantity is needed, the sample is charged at the quoted price for that variety.

What is the minimum order quantity?

It depends on the product line, by variety. Decoction pieces start from 1 kg per variety; food-as-medicine ingredients start from 20 kg per variety. A single order can combine many varieties — Nanxing carries more than 700 specifications and delivers them as one complete order, so a multi-variety purchasing list does not need to be split across suppliers. Exact quantities are confirmed at inquiry against actual availability.

What documents are supplied with the goods?

Each shipment is accompanied by the quality documents corresponding to the actual batch supplied — the batch is the authority. Depending on the product category and your market's requirements, export documents can be prepared accordingly, for example batch test reports, product specifications, and origin or traceability records. Tell us in your inquiry which documents your customs and regulators require, and we will confirm document by document what can be provided for each variety. Documents for a specific batch can also be reviewed before the order is confirmed.
