j'ai fais quelque voyage en thailande et j'ai envie de me lancer dans le textile.j'ai quelques contact dans le textile mais il me manque les meilleurs adresses tel que les usines textile alors ma 1er question est ce que quelqu'un a des adresses d'usine ?
pour faire importer du textile en france faut-il avoir un numero de siret ( donc une adresse magasin ) ?
pour le transport tel que feddex ups ou autres sont il performant et facile a trouver sur Bangkok ? pour la douane francaise pour du textile est ce pas cher ?
bon j'ai plein d'autre question mais deja si vous pouvez m'aider sur ces questions sa serait bien merci !
Un grand classique du forum (ce qui veut dire que tu n'es pas le seul à y avoir pensé....) !! Tu te dis qu'avec le prix que ca vaut en Thailande et celui que tu vendras ici en France, il y a de la marge.... OUI MAIS rajoute le shipping (transport par container je suppose), sinon personne physique ou sociétés peuvent importer à la condition de s'assurer les services du transitaire (c'est lui qui s'occupe des formalités de dedouannement/TVA et c'est pas donné du tout car ce prestataire est responsable de la marchandise !) + modalites de paiement (les thais ne connaissent pas les traites à 90 jours 😉), la location de la boutique en France et la publicité et PAN le bénéfice s'est envolé ! Le produit arrivé en France te coute déja (avant d'être vendu) entre 3 et 5 fois son cout initial. Et puis à ta place j'irais directement en Chine car les thais achètent ou disposent d'usines la-bas. Tout ca bien entendu si tu as une CERTAINE EXPERIENCE dans ce style de négoce qui reste un des plus concurrentiels au Monde. Quant aux adresses ca n'est pas dans ce genre de forum qu'on se les échange mais plutot dans des salons professionnels dédiés à cette activité. Si tu veux continuer d'être naïf, libre à toi...

oui c'est vrai que je parle de la thai !! mais je suis entrain de me renseigner en chine en meme temps je sais que tous vient de chine !!! apres je suis aussi entrain de me renseigner pour tous les frais douane transport ect... mais en thai j'ai des contacts que je nai pas en chine ...
QUI NE TENTE RIEN N'A RIEN..
La thailand est connue pour etre le meilleur monteur de vetement d'asie, tu peux toujours aller en chine mais la qualité labas n'as rien a voir !!!
Très belle qualité des vêtements coton produits en Thaïlande.
Il y a des franchises qui font fabriquer plus de 60% de leurs ventes à BKK.
Pour travailler avec le bon fabricant en Chine, c'est un peu comme trouver le meilleur fournisseur d'un produit à Paris en multipliant les valeurs par 1000. Bon courage.
Sinon, pour gagner un peu de trésorerie: En important en France, tu paies immédiatement 19.6% de TVA sur le prix d'achat + transport de ta marchandise. Ajoutés au frais de transport, de dédouanement ....., ça chiffre vite surtout quand on commence son activité.
D'où l'utilisation de la TVA intracommunautaire. Tu importes ta marchandise par la Hollande, tu fais transiter la marchandise par le Luxembourg par ex., tu réexportes la marchandise vers la France. Comptablement ta TVA se transforme en TVA intracommunautaire. 2 lignes d'écritures en compta. Mais tu ne payes pas les 19.6% de TVA à l'entrée de la marchandise en France. Tu payeras la TVA au fur et à mesure de tes ventes de la marchandise (donc quand tu auras toi-même facturé la TVA). En démarrant ta société, tu peux même jongler avec les acomptes de TVA que tu payeras trimestriellement, mais que jusqu'au 1er bilan où il faudra tout régulariser.
J'ai moi-même utilisé ce principe jusqu'à récemment. Mon transitaire (+600 bureaux dans le monde) s'est occupé de toutes les formalités hors France. Il m'envoyait tous les trimestres les documents à renvoyer aux Douanes du Lux. après signature et sans coût supplémentaire.

salut,
je souhaiterai avoir des contacts d'usines, fabricantes de t-shits, voire chemises, et pantalons et shorts, en Thaïlande.
1 j'aimerai savoir si, pour la création d'un nouveau label, toutes les formatilés administratives (enregistrement de la marque, etc...) peuvent être faites directement dans le pays exportateur (Thai)? 2 à quels frais s'élèveraient ces formalités?
merci vous l'aide que vous m'apporterez

Salut,
Je viens juste de lire les informations que t'as transmis sur le forum. en fait, moi je voudrais également importés des vêtements de l'Inde. je me suis renseigné auprès des transitaires, apparemment il faut réclamer aux fournisseurs des licences où ils indiquent la composition de la matière du tissu utilisé pour le vêtement.
J'ai recherché ses fameux fournisseurs sur Internet, mais bon c'est un peu difficile de faire son choix sur internet. Je suis preneuse d'infos ou de conseils pour l'import/export et également pour la création d'entreprise.
oui, car je voudrais ouvrir un magasin, mais je n'ai aucun apport.et je voudrais savoir si vous auriez des conseils : acheter les murs du locaux ou est ce que que louer c'est mieux dans un premier temps?
Merci d'avance

HEY JE TE DONNE un conseil oubli ce commerce c est pas rentable je l ai fais deja avant mais c est mort maintenant j acheté des t shearts a 1, 20 euros arrivées en france ils sont deja a 7, 50 euros donc mon vieux oubli je trouve en france de la marchandise au meme prix sans me deplacer donc le calcule est vite fait
Non seulement ca n'a aucun rapport avec le voyage mais en plus personne ne fait remarquer que ca va à l'encontre de tout sens éthique ? On nous baratine à longueur de journée sur l'écologie et le tourisme équitable, mais personne pour faire remarquer qu'il est absurde de faire voyager des Tshirts sur des milliers de kms alors qu'on ferme les usines en europe ? Et d'ailleurs est-ce que les europééns ont vraiment besoin de Tshirts neufs les poubelles ne sont pas déjà assez remplies de vieilles fringues ? Et surtout quelles conditions de travail pour les ouvriers du textille en thailande ou en inde ?

Donc acheté en Thaïlande et une fois arriver en France c’est clair le prix est presque pareil que si on n’achète en France ! À part vraiment si on n’achète en très grosse quantité….
Grace à ce forum (http://textile.vraiforum.com/index.php )j’ai pu me créer ma propre marque de tee shirt.
Donc ce qui veulent ce lancer je serais la pour aider !!!

Hi there,
I know there are similar topics here and elsewhere, but they’re a few years old, and I need an up-to-date answer to make sure I don’t throw over 1000 € out the window. Thanks for your patience.
I’m planning a trip from France to Alberta/British Columbia, and I’m unsure about which bank card to use for the security deposit with the rental company (I’m thinking of going with AVIS).
I contacted Avis Canada, and they told me a credit card is absolutely required. I asked my bank for a credit card (a *real* credit card), but they only offered me a deferred debit card.
My question: For a rental with Avis Canada, is a Gold International Mastercard deferred debit card usable for the security deposit needed to finalize the rental? Is the "CREDIT" label enough? (Some cards say "CREDIT" and others say "CARTE DE CREDIT"—seems minor, but it’s actually a big deal in how the card works.)
I’ve seen conflicting info everywhere I look... My bank says it’s *usually* okay (the deferred debit card), while Avis Canada insists it *must* be a credit card, not debit—even when I mention the deferred debit card.
I know the whole credit card concept is already confusing, and on top of that, some sites say a deferred debit card counts as a credit card, while others say it doesn’t.
Thanks to anyone who can share a recent experience! Have a great day

Hi,
I’m bringing Seresta, an anxiolytic (tranquilizer) from the benzodiazepine family,
to help me sleep.
I’ll have the prescription with me.
Will this be a problem at customs, and do I need to declare it?
Same question for antibiotics?
Thanks a bunch!
Hi everyone,
I’ll explain my situation.
Unfortunately, I lost my passport, and I only realized it two weeks before my departure for a humanitarian mission in Libya. I’m a nurse, and this mission really means a lot to me.
First, I applied for an emergency passport, but it was denied by the Val-d'Oise prefecture on the grounds that a planned humanitarian mission wasn’t considered an urgent reason.
So, I submitted a biometric passport application on July 20th. Since then, the tracking has been stuck, and the town hall can’t (or won’t) give me any clear information. Every time I call, I get a different story. The last update I received was that the passport had been produced since July 23rd with a status of "about to be shipped," but nothing since then.
I’ve managed to push my departure back to next Tuesday at the latest, but I’m starting to really panic.
Have any of you submitted an application around July 20th, especially in Val-d'Oise (95)? How long did you wait between the passport being produced and it being available at the town hall? Is it normal for this step to take this long?
This mission means so much to me. I had everything organized, and I’m also supposed to attend a friend’s wedding right after near the border.
Thanks so much to those who take the time to respond or share their experience. 😔
Hi,
Can anyone tell me exactly if a passport "valid for the duration of the stay" is enough, or does it need to be valid for 6 months after the trip? I checked the embassy’s website, but that info is missing.

Hi everyone,
I have to leave for Perth, Australia in a week, for 7 days, and I couldn’t get my international driver’s permit due to processing and delivery delays.
The information I’ve found about whether an international permit is required is contradictory. Some sources say you need one, others say you don’t.
Could anyone let me know if an international driver’s permit is necessary to rent a car in Australia (Perth), or if a French license is enough for a 7-day rental?
Thanks in advance for your advice

Hi everyone,
I’m a bit embarrassed because I need to travel to Quebec from February 27th to March 13th. I’m a regular visitor to Canada—this will be my 10th trip since 1997, plus a year as a permanent resident (2000–2001) and a cross-country run from Vancouver to Halifax in 2011. So, I’m definitely not a terrorist! But since our last trip in July 2015, they’ve introduced this eTA thing. Seems more like a way to make money than to actually secure Canada, if you ask me, but anyway, that’s not the point. I applied for an eTA for myself, my wife, and our two kids. They all got approved within hours, but not me! I was asked to create a GC key and then an IRCC account, which I did. Normally, you get news within 72 hours, but since Monday, January 15th, nothing! In the "message" section of the account, it says "explanation letter (required)" with a deadline of January 25th, but I can’t find any explanation anywhere—despite searching the Canadian government website and Google. No links, nothing! I’ve emailed them but haven’t heard back yet. I’m thinking of calling the Canadian embassy in Paris tomorrow. Even though I’m not stressing yet, it’d be a bummer if everyone else got to go without me! If anyone’s had this issue before or knows what this explanation letter is about, I’d love to hear more.

hi there
I’m heading to Seoul in September, and to do that I need to get a travel authorization that we apply for through K-ETA....... turns out I can (barely, I admit) fill out the form up to the address of our "stay location," but every address I’ve entered has been rejected by the system. I’ve tried my hotel, the Lotte Hotel (which is well-known in Seoul), the airport—basically, I’ve entered at least 20 addresses, all rejected....
So, to anyone who’s successfully gotten the authorization, could you tell me which address you used to get that "elusive" approval?...
Thanks for your help

In theory (French national), I’m visa-exempt for a 30-day tourist stay, but on France Diplomatie it says on this page
https://www.diplomatie.gouv.fr/fr/information-par-pays/mongolie/conseils-aux-voyageurs-entree-sejour
that a visa is still required if you’re coming from Mongolia. True or false? And if true, what’s the process? Thanks

Hi there,
I have a 9-seater passenger vehicle that I use for my business in Paris, transporting people.
I’m planning to go to Algeria with my family.
The vehicle registration lists my company as the owner.
Can I get a TPD (Temporary Admission Document)?
Will I need a KBis extract or a power of attorney?!?
Thanks for your help.
Worst case, I can add my personal name as a co-owner on the registration, but that would be a real shame!

Hi there,
I bought a one-way flight (Ryanair) and a return flight (EasyJet) to spend a week in Morocco in April. My passport expires 3 weeks after the return date. Some websites say the passport must be valid for 3 months at the time of entry. However, it will still be valid both on entry and return, but its validity will only be 1 month at the time of entry (and 3 weeks on the return date, everything prepaid).
It's an individual family trip.
The consulate can't give me an answer—they're still looking into it (really!)
Will Ryanair let me board in Beauvais in 3 weeks?
Thanks for your advice—this is a bit urgent 😕😕😕😕

Hello,
Last year, we stayed for 3 months in Thailand, north of Khao Lak, and were able to benefit from the 2-month visa exemption, renewable for one month by going to Takua Pa to validate a 1-month extension (1,900 baht). This year, it’s a disaster for us—not only were we planning a 4-month stay, adding a visa run in between (which some say is quite risky), but the law is apparently changing in the coming months with the return of the 1-month exemption (plus the usual 1-month option). So, we looked into applying for a 6-month multiple-entry visa, allowing a maximum of 60 consecutive days in Thailand. However, I can’t find anywhere the minimum time required outside Thailand between two stays—do any of you have an idea? Thanks for the info! If you’d like tips on Khao Lak and the surrounding areas, we’ve got some experience, though things change fast! Cheers, Bruno.

We’ve decided to spend one day in Switzerland and another in Italy. Will we need ID (national ID card or passport)? Do we also need ID for our daughter?
Thanks so much for your answers! 🙂

Hi everyone,
Some French friends are visiting NYC (4/5 days around mid-May) from Montreal, Canada. They’ve got their eTA and ESTA approved!
Round-trip transport by bus.
Question: Is the I-94 form required, mandatory, and should it be filled out on the bus or in advance???
Thanks for your RECENT experiences!
See you, Jean.

Hello,
We’ll soon be moving to Madagascar long-term.
As a French national, I need to obtain a short-stay visa that can be converted to a long-stay one. To do this, I have to send the required documents to the Madagascar embassy in Paris.
No issues with that procedure so far.
If I get this visa, once I arrive in Madagascar, I’ll need to provide the same documents to the Ministry of the Interior in Anosy. I’m trying to find an email address or website for the Ministry to check which documents I need to submit (I think they ask for additional ones).
If you have any info on this, I’d appreciate your replies.
Best regards,
M. Buisson Eric
Hi there,
I’d like to know if anyone has already applied for a private visa to Russia with an invitation from a Russian resident. I traveled earlier this year with an e-visa, but since I want to stay longer, I’ll be visiting my friend who lives in eastern Russia. For the visa application, does the invitation need to be on an official paper form issued by the Russian ministry? And most importantly, do I need to present the original for the application, or is there an electronic version that can be sent directly to the consulate in France? Thanks for any info if you’ve gone through this process before!
Best regards,
Gilles

I filled out the B2 form to apply for a visa, created an account on Atvis to pay the visa fees and schedule a meet-up, but every time I try to pay with my Boursobank Visa 1st card, they refuse the payment with a message telling me to check my details (address), even though everything is correct. Does anyone know why this is happening, or maybe they don’t accept Visa cards? Are you aware of this?
Thanks for your feedback!

Hi,
There are rumors going around about the ETA: it must absolutely be on your smartphone in the "ETA" app.
Paper documents might not be accepted. Is this real or just a hoax? Thanks, I’m leaving in 3 weeks. My passport is good to go and my ETA is still valid for a year, but I only printed the email I received. Thanks everyone.

Hi there,
We need to apply for a B2 visa because we visited Iran in 2018. It currently costs $185, but they’re planning an additional $250 fee per person for the same visa—it’s been approved but not yet implemented. Does anyone know when this fee will take effect?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
In November, we're heading off on a 4-month trip. We'll be landing in China and plan to leave the country via a land border into Vietnam.
I’ve read that China may ask for proof of exit within 30 days (flight ticket or other reservation). Since we’d be leaving by land, I’m wondering how this works in practice.
Has anyone here been in this situation recently?
Did the airline ask for an exit ticket before boarding? Did Chinese authorities require proof upon arrival? Is a train/bus ticket to Vietnam sufficient? Is a cancelable or flexible reservation accepted?
Thanks for sharing your experiences! 😊

Hi there,
Just a question that’s probably been asked before (though usually the other way around for my situation :))
My wife and I are heading to the US.
On her ticket, it only has her maiden name (e.g., Martine DUPOND).
On her passport, it’s written as Martine DUPOND épouse AVRY.
No issues for travel, I hope I did the right thing with the ticket?
Then for the ESTA, is just Martine DUPOND enough, or do I need to include the "épouse AVRY" part like on the passport?
Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
I’m spending a few days in San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) and would like to cross the Argentine border to make a loop toward Salta and then return to Chile to drop off the rental car.
I’ve heard that crossing the border can be tricky!
Is it possible with a rental company’s authorization? Which company, and at what cost?
Thanks for sharing your experiences!

Hi everyone,
I saw on the French Embassy in Peru’s website and the Peruvian Consulate in Paris’s site that the rule is to have a passport valid for 6 months *after the arrival date* (not the return date).
I arrive in Peru on August 13, 2019 (for about twelve days), and my passport is valid until February 16, 2020.
That’s 6 months and 3 days after my arrival date in Peru. In my opinion, I’m good to go.
But could I still be denied entry if they say I don’t cover the return date or that I’m too close to the 6-month mark?
Thanks for your feedback.

Hi there,
I read on the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs website that it’s possible to apply for a temporary driving permit in China, valid for 1 month. I’m planning to rent a car (without a driver) to explore part of the country next August, so I was wondering:
Has anyone here already gone through this process upon arrival? How long do the formalities take on the spot? Is it possible to handle these steps in advance, before arriving in China?
Thanks in advance for your replies.

Hi
Has anyone been to Rwanda recently and gotten a 3-month visa on arrival easily?
Thanks
