Helping you enter new markets with a clearer path to compliance.
Practical IOR and EOR support for companies entering markets without local infrastructure.

Entering a new market shouldn't require you to build an entire local operation. As your Importer of Record (IOR) and Exporter of Record (EOR), Babaji Shivram helps businesses navigate cross-border trade by managing import and export responsibilities, documentation, customs, tax & legal responsibility and regulatory requirements on your behalf.
Importer of Record — responsibility at the point of import
An Importer of Record is the party responsible for ensuring that imported goods comply with the applicable customs and regulatory requirements of the destination country. As your IOR partner, Babaji Shivram can support the import process by managing relevant responsibilities such as:
- Import documentation
- Customs declarations
- Classification support
- Duties and taxes coordination
- Regulatory compliance
- Customs communication
- Record keeping
- Coordination with freight and delivery partners
When do you need an IOR?
An IOR solution can be particularly useful when your business:
- Is entering a new country
- Does not have a local legal entity
- Is supplying equipment for an international project
- Is shipping directly to customers overseas
- Needs a local party to manage import formalities
- Is testing a new market before establishing a permanent presence
- Has temporary or project-based import requirements
- Needs support navigating unfamiliar customs regulations
Exporter of Record — simplifying your outbound trade
When goods are being exported from a market, the Exporter of Record is responsible for ensuring that the export transaction meets applicable customs and regulatory requirements. Our EOR services can support businesses with:
- Export documentation
- Export declarations
- Regulatory requirements
- Customs coordination
- Compliance checks
- Shipment coordination
- Documentation and record keeping
When do you need an EOR?
An EOR solution can be useful when:
