What is Odai
The full name of European Authorized Representative (European Authorized Representative) refers to a natural or legal person clearly designated by a manufacturer located outside the European Economic Area EEA (including EU and EFTA). This natural or legal person can perform specific duties required by relevant EU directives and laws on behalf of the manufacturer outside the EEA.
When the products of exporters outside the EU encounter any problems during customs clearance, the European agent will help the exporter communicate with the customs and solve the problem. The customs usually also requires communication with the exporter's European agent. When any problems arise during the sales of the exporter's products in the EU, it is also the European agent who will assist in solving the problem. Therefore, O&D bears certain risks. The higher the risk of the products exported by the exporter, the higher the risks O&D takes.
