PrecisionEquipment ImportsCompliance thresholds are being upgraded

The newly revised Administrative Measures for Import of Electromechanical Products in 2025 imposes stricter access requirements for precision processing equipment. Taking wire EDM machines as an example, customs inspection focus has shifted from simple price declaration toVerification of technical parametersandusage scenario review. In handling import cases for a German-branded equipment, we found that the same model may have HS codes ranging from 8456.30 to 8456.90 due to different processing accuracy levels, resulting in a 5.8% difference in import tariffs.

Core value comparison of professional agencies

• Document preparation efficiency comparison:
  • General customs declaration: Requires preparation of 12 categories of technical documents on average
  • Professional agency: Can streamline documents to 8 categories through pre-classification system
• Customs clearance time differences:
  • Self-declaration: Average clearance time of 21 working days
  • Agency service: Fastest customs clearance and release can be achieved in 5 working days

Key operational points for import practices in 2025

In the latest customs clearance practices, three key operations require special attention:

• Technical parameter certification:Equipment with cutting accuracy exceeding ±0.002mm requiresOriginal factory calibration certificate
• Consumables declaration specifications:Molybdenum wire for wire cutting should be declared according to3%-5%Declaration
• Follow-up regulatory coordination:Equipment operation status report must be submitted within 30 days after installation and debuggingWhen a company imported Japanese slow wire cutting equipment, it failed to distinguish between
