Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI) Service Overview

Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI), also known as Pre-Dispatch Inspection or Final Random Inspection (FRI), is a critical quality control service conducted by professional inspectors at the manufacturer’s facility in China. This inspection takes place when at least 80% of the order is complete and packed, ensuring the goods meet your specifications before shipment.


Key Inspection Scopes:

✔ Inventory Verification – Confirm order quantity and completeness
✔ Packaging & Labeling Check – Ensure compliance with shipping and safety standards
✔ Dimensional & Volumetric Tests – Verify product size, weight, and packaging efficiency
✔ Workmanship Assessment – Inspect build quality, materials, and finish
✔ Performance & Safety Tests* – Functional testing (if applicable, e.g., electrical safety, load-bearing capacity)


Why PSI Matters for Buyers in China?

  • Prevents defective shipments by identifying issues before goods leave the factory

  • Reduces risks of returns, recalls, or compliance failures

  • Provides an objective QC report for payment release or rework negotiation

  • Follows AQL (Acceptable Quality Limit) standards for fair and randomized sampling
