外贸验厂全攻略：流程解析与高效应对技巧
什么是外贸验厂？
What is a Factory Audit?
外贸验厂是指国际客户在下单前对供应商进行的系统性检查，主要分为三大类：
Factory audit refers to the systematic inspection conducted by international clients before placing orders, mainly divided into three categories:
- 人权验厂（Social Compliance Audit）
- 品质验厂（Quality Audit）

这些审核确保供应商在质量体系、社会责任和反恐安全等方面符合国际标准，是获得大客户订单的必要条件。
These audits ensure suppliers meet international standards in quality systems, social responsibility and anti-terrorism security, which are essential requirements for obtaining orders from major clients.
