Are exporters starting to refuse tiny mixed-lot shipments because the paperwork load is too heavy?

A few exporters told me small mixed-lot business is becoming less attractive because one complicated shipment can create too much paperwork, checking, correction, and follow up. Is this starting to push exporters away from small custom shipments?

Yes, especially when buyer wants many tiny separations but still expects low admin cost. It is a lot of work behind one shipment.

True. The cost is not only document count, but also error risk.

Can understand this. Small lot sounds flexible, but document and coordination become crazy if too many split details inside one shipment.

For premium business it still works, but margin must support the admin burden.

Some exporters now ask minimum operational size even if they do not say it publicly.
