Scale International Expansion Retainers
Without Drowning in HS Codes, Multi-Currency Feeds, or VAT Reconciliations
Your highest client value is advising enterprise DTC brands and marketplace sellers on global market entry, customs compliance, localized pricing strategies, and landed cost profitability—not manually looking up 10-digit HS/TARIC tariff codes, auditing European IOSS filings, formatting multi-country Shopify Markets catalogs, coordinating with 3PL freight forwarders, or translating Amazon EU/Japan backend listing metadata. Sagedoer matches you with vetted, platform-certified Virtual Assistants dedicated to Harmonized Tariff mapping, landed cost modeling, international catalog localization, global VAT/EORI documentation, multi-currency feed audits, and cross-border 3PL coordination. Supervised daily by a dedicated Project Manager at zero extra cost.
Everything Required to Scale an International eCommerce Advisory
Whether you advise direct-to-consumer lifestyle brands expanding via Shopify Markets and Global-e or manage enterprise Amazon Global Selling expansion across the UK, EU, Japan, and Australia, our managed VAs handle the tedious technical operations so you can focus on high-ticket retainer consulting.
HS & TARIC Code Mapping & Landed Costs
Protect your clients from customs border seizures and surprise destination duties. We research material compositions and assign compliant tariff classifications across catalog SKUs.
- Researching 6-digit WCO HS codes & 8–10 digit destination tariff codes (HTS, TARIC, UK Global Tariff)
- Calculating duty rates, custom clearance surcharges, and landed cost models in client spreadsheets
- Updating customs metadata inside ERPs, Shopify, and cross-border shipping apps (Zonos, Avalara)
Shopify Markets, Currencies & Domain Staging
Convert international shoppers with native shopping experiences. We configure country market rules, localized pricing, rounding rules, and country-specific subdomains.
- Staging subfolders and ccTLDs with proper hreflang tag verification across target geos
- Setting up fixed price lists by country and dynamic FX currency conversion with local rounding
- Configuring localized checkout payment options (iDEAL, Klarna, Bancontact, Boleto, Pix)
Amazon Global Selling & Listing Syndication
Launch client catalogs seamlessly across international Amazon marketplaces without risking brand registry rejections or translation blunders.
- Establishing Unified Accounts across UK, Pan-EU (DE, FR, IT, ES), Japan, Australia, and UAE
- Localizing titles, bullet points, and backend search terms with native market search intent
- Uploading country-compliant A+ content and Brand Story modules with localized lifestyle imagery
VAT, IOSS & EORI Tax Document Collation
Eliminate cross-border accounting bottlenecks. We compile monthly transactional sales exports, foreign tax summaries, and fiscal representation documentation.

- Reconciling Amazon UK VAT / Pan-EU distance selling thresholds and Avalara/SimplyVAT exports
- Verifying valid GB/EU EORI numbers and maintaining customs power of attorney (POA) archives
Freight Forwarder & Global 3PL Audits
Keep supply lines transparent across air, ocean, and regional fulfillment hubs. We track consignments, reconcile commercial invoices, and monitor carrier SLAs.
- Reviewing commercial invoices and packing lists against Incoterms (DDP vs. DAP guidelines)
- Tracking cross-border parcels with DHL Express, FedEx Cross Border, YunExpress, and Asendia
- Auditing international 3PL receiving logs and reconciling unexpected customs clearance fees
Localized CX Macros & Returns Workflows
