Final QC should connect product quality with export packing and shipment-release details.
- Visual inspection
- Function checks
- Barcode and carton marks
- Packing method and carton quantity

FAQ
Questions that come up before the factory conversation
What should a bag QC checklist include?
It should include sample approval, material match, stitching, dimensions, hardware function, logo placement, packaging, carton marks, and final shipment release.
When should buyers use a QC checklist?
Use it before sample approval, during production, and again before shipment so the buyer and factory judge the order against the same standard.
Can this checklist apply to handbags, totes, backpacks, and cosmetic bags?
Yes. The checkpoints are category-neutral, but each bag type should add specific tests such as strap pull, zipper function, shape, lining, or reinforcement checks.
