I answerd my own ? i see this has been read a few times with no answer so here it is.
import of goods: you need to get the product id code from port authorities then you need a shipping broker to import a % will be given based on the type of item weight or cost whichever is more. after researching this it was best and most cost effective to use DHL in my case.
export of goods: works the same way but in reverse and there may be port taxes when it gets to where it's going.
Hope This helps someone elese

Well part of the problem might've been the location, since the lounge is for off-topic casual chatting, but I certainly didn't know the answer, so thanks for posting it!

It's not a problem :) I'm sure it was seen anyway, just that no one had the answer, which you've now provided.
