Amazon FBA quality inspection services in China

In this article, we compare and select the top 15 third-party China inspection services for you.

To clarify, we compare them based on their company capability, company size, service charge, and the services they provide. Consequently, you can have a general understanding of these inspection companies and choose the most suitable one according to your needs.

Before listing the companies, I think you will want to know the following things you must know.

Why you need a China inspection service?

Firstly, we have to know, Amazon is committed to providing a wide range of products to choose from and an excellent buying experience. In order to achieve a good buyer experience, if the product refund rate is too high, they will suspend the product.

In general, If your refund rate goes over 10% or more, your listing will face the risk of being suspended by Amazon. And we find that almost one-third of returns are due to a damaged or poor quality product. Once your listing is suspended, you must recheck these products or give up the inventory directly, which will bring you serious losses. In addition, it is necessary for sellers to make sure the products comply with the target market’s laws and regulations.

Then, defects will always exist in the production process. That is to say, the manufacturing of a product involves a wide range, including mechanical participation and manual participation. Everyone makes mistakes, so it is impossible for all products to be perfect

Also, there is another possibility, the actual shipment is different from the samples. May you got a high-quality sample, however, the actual shipment comes with low quality. Sadly, sometimes, some suppliers can do such bad things.

In conclusion, all of these reasons make it necessary for you to conduct a quality inspection. That is to say, quality control inspectors can help you avoid quality issues and mitigate the risks of non-compliance.

What are the types of product inspection services in China?

Generally speaking, China inspection services fall into the following categories.

1. Pre-production Inspection

Pre-production inspection is a quality inspection performed before the production has not started. In this stage, inspectors will check the Raw materials, components, and accessories, Also, they check production equipment, and workshop environment.

This inspection can help you make sure the quality and quantity of raw materials and components. Also, it can avoid delivery delays due to material handovers and production schedules.

2. During Production Inspection

Inspection during production is to check the initial finished products. This inspection conduct when the production is 10 to 20% complete. During this inspection, inspectors will identify deviations and give feedback on corrective measures.

In this way, inspectors can find the possible problems with the mass production in time.

3. Production Monitoring

Production monitoring means that the inspector monitors the production process at the factory. As a result, this inspection can lead to a significant reduction in possible production problems. It provides all-around quality assurance, however, it is too costly.

4. Pre-shipment Inspection

The pre-shipment inspection is usually carried out when the goods are 100% produced and 80% packed. Hence, in this stage, inspectors will check the important things about the product, including the number of products produced, product appearance and packaging, product size and weight, product function, and accessories.

Generally, about pre-shipment inspection, you can choose full inspection or partial inspection. Namely, full inspection means every product will be reviewed. Partial inspection means about 10% of the products are reviewed.

Some sellers are using partial inspection, some are using full inspection. In my opinion, a full inspection can give you complete confidence in your products. Of course, a full inspection is expensive for a partial inspection. Therefore, you can choose the one that can meet your needs.

What China inspection service do I need to choose for my Amazon product?

After you read my introduction to the types of inspection above, I think you will definitely know which inspection service to choose to meet your needs.

Most FBA sellers choose the Pre-shipment inspection for their products. Firstly, the price for this inspection is very cost-effective. Then, the inspection can give you the best quality control results and cost ratio. Thirdly, the inspection can verify if the goods are 100% manufactured and packed. Lastly, it can avoid shipment delays due to product problems.

How much does a product quality inspection in China cost?

Generally speaking, the inspection price is calculated based on the number of inspectors and the number of inspection days: person-day.

Most quality inspection companies charge between US$180 and US$300 for each quality inspection. If you book a check-up a few days in advance, some quality inspection service companies will also offer discounts. on the other hand, you can add the cost to the product cost, you will find it will not cost much. In my opinion, it is not a lot to pay for peace of mind and avoid the potential headaches.

How to choose a China product inspection company?

1. Location

When you want to choose a product inspection company, the first factor you need to consider is the location of inspectors. The number of staff a third-party inspection company has and how to spread out they are is important.

You have to know, with a total area of 9.59 million sq. km, China ranks as the world’s fourth-largest country. For example, If you ask the inspectors in Shenzhen to check for you in Tianjin,  that’s a lot of travel time and associated expenses that you’ll be paying.

Hence it is necessary for you to know where is your supplier factory, and find the company near to your supplier factory. Because travel costs for inspectors can add up your cost.

2. Full-time inspectors

Secondly, you can find out if the inspectors checking your products will be full-time, part-time, or contracted.

I am not mean the part-time inspectors are always not professional. However, their inspection method is less standardized. Thus making for inconsistent results, and they may not always be available to inspect your products.

Sometimes, third-party inspection companies will hire contractors to conduct inspections in small-batch areas where part-time or full-time inspectors are not guaranteed. This eliminates the need to pay salaries to employees who rarely need it, thus saving the inspection company money. Contractors are not very recommended. This is because they are hired regularly and irregularly.

3. Time for product inspection reports

 If your products need to ship within just 24-48 hours of the inspection. In this case, you’ll probably want to know the results of the inspection as soon as possible so you can make an informed shipping decision. Some product inspectors are able to send you the report within just a few hours of the inspection’s completion. However, others inspectors need one or two days to complete the written report and send it to you.

Sooner is usually better when it comes to receiving the inspection report.
