EquipmentImport Clearancethe "three big mountains"

According to the 2025 international trade monitoring data, the average detention time of mechanical and electrical equipment goods at major ports was 42% longer than that of general goods. Among the 37 recently processed cases,Equipment ImportsIn this case, we have identified three major typical obstacles:

• Classification dispute: Multi-functional integrated devices often encounter HS code discrepancies.
• Documentation flaws:It is recommended to verify through the following methods:The mismatch rate between the name and technical parameters is as high as 28%.

• Emergency response network: Resolve the on-site customs inspection dispute for a certain laser equipment within 72 hours.

Practical Evaluation Model for Selecting Agents

Based on survey data from over 500 enterprises, we have established a four-dimensional evaluation system for agent selection:

• Qualification Penetration Verification: Verify the actual port coverage rate of AEO-certified enterprises
• Case reconstruction capability: Request to provide complete customs clearance records for the same type of equipment.
• Cost structure transparency: Be wary of "bundled pricing" models that include hidden fees.
• Emergency resource reserves: Verify the response time commitment of the crisis management team.

Key Points for Upgrading the 2025 Customs Clearance Strategy

Regarding the newly implemented "Detailed Rules for the Administration of Imported Electromechanical Products," professional agents must possess:

• Rapid verification capability for energy efficiency certification of smart devices.

• Compliance Pathway Design for Cross-Border Residual Value Assessment of Second-Hand Equipment

A Win-Win Model for Cost Control

High-quality proxy services achieve cost reduction and efficiency improvement through the following methods:

• Utilize preferential tariff rates under the free trade agreement to save 15-22% in tariff costs.
