Core concepts
TODO: DDP vs DDU trade-offs (landed cost transparency, liability shift), carrier-choice framework (weight / speed / destination / DDP capability), customs document prep (商業發票、包裝明細、原產地證明), label standards per carrier, returns friction and cost structure. NOTE: HS-code classification, de minimis thresholds, and duty/VAT rates belong in tw-ecom-compliance-cross-border — do not duplicate here.
Decision tree
TODO: carrier by destination / weight / speed / DDP preference.
Implementation guidance
