Large-scaleEquipment ImportsSix core processes

For the import of complete sets of equipment worth more than one million US dollars, it is necessary to buildA full - life - cycle management model:

• Pre - project technical demonstration stage
  • Verification of the compatibility of equipment parameters with domestic standards
  • Compliance review of the original factory CE/FCC certification documents
• Logistics plan design stage
  • Feasibility analysis of modular disassembly and transportation
  • Application for special port lifting operation permit
• Customs clearance declaration execution stage
  • Accurate classification of the eight - digit HS CODE tariff number
  • Handling of the import license for mechanical and electrical products

Three key points of preventing and controlling hidden risks

According to the latest regulatory requirements of the General Administration of Customs in 2025, special attention should be paid to:

• Technical barrier risks
  • The revised clauses of the new EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC
  • Early warning of the version update of the US Energy Star certification
• Logistics operation risks
  • Control of the temporary port storage cost of over - sized equipment
  • Time - effect management of multimodal transport connection
• Fund precipitation risks
  • Optimization strategy for the calculation method of the security deposit
  • Design of the tariff deferral payment plan

Professional agency service selection criteria

What high - quality service providers should possessFour - dimensional capability matrix:

• Qualification certification system
  • AEO (Authorized Economic Operator) Advanced Certification
  • ISO28000 Supply Chain Security Management Certification
• Industry practical operation cases
  • Successful cases of constant - temperature transportation of precision instruments
  • Records of rapid customs clearance of heavy machinery at the port
• Global Service Network
  • In-house customs clearance teams at major ports
  • Overseas technical pre - treatment center
• Risk contingency plan system
  • Response plan for sudden additional tariffs
  • Rapid response to technical trade measures

Practical case analysis

When a certain automobile manufacturer imported a German stamping production line, due to not paying attention toThe specifications of the equipment foundation boltsThe differences from domestic foundation parameters led to a three - month installation delay. After professional agents intervened in advance:

• Coordinated with foreign parties to provide 3D foundation drawings
• Arranged for the renovation and construction of domestic embedded parts
• Simultaneously handled the temporary import guarantee procedures

Ultimately, it saved a direct economic loss of $1.2 million and avoided order losses caused by the delayed commissioning of the production line.

Prediction of industry regulatory trends in 2025

Based on the latest draft amendment to the Measures for the Administration of Import of Mechanical and Electrical Products:

• Second - hand equipment imports need to provideEnergy consumption test reports
• Mandatory requirements for precision instrumentsTransportation vibration monitoring data
• Implementation of super - large equipmentPre - arrival inspection system at the port of destination
