How is using Artsy Shipping for artworks from the U.S. to destinations outside of the U.S. different?

When you use Artsy Shipping for artworks shipping from the U.S. to destinations outside of the U.S., we manage the export filing process for your gallery. Here’s how that works:

1. ARTA will reach out to collect your exporter information including tax ID, artwork origin address, artwork information, and harmonized tariff code. Once all the information is provided, ARTA will create a commercial invoice for shipment. 

2. ARTA will provide an authorization form to ARTA, our shipping partner, so that we can fill out the export information on your behalf. This includes signing the Power of Attorney for ARTA to start the export filing process. Once the process is completed and approved, you will receive a copy of the Power of Attorney and the Commercial Invoice.
