MiningEquipment ImportsThe three major customs clearance difficulties

After the implementation of the newly revised Administrative Measures for the Import of Electromechanical Products in 2025, mining equipment imports have shownIncreased complexity in technical parameter determination,Fragmentation of safety standard systems,High frequency of classification disputesnew characteristics. Taking a certain model of hydraulic crusher as an example, the accuracy rate of HS code declaration at customs dropped from 78% to 62%, with main disputes focusing on the combined determination of working pressure parameters and functional modules.

Nine-step breakdown of standard clearance procedures

• Equipment pre-classification stage
  • Obtain original equipment technical drawings
  • Compare with the 2025 version of customs classification guidelines
  • Prepare classification difference explanation documents
• Document preparation stage
  • New version of electromechanical product import license
  • Special equipment filing certificate for pressure vessels
  • Explanation of EU CE certification conversion to Chinese standards
• Port operation stage
  • Container weight verification (VGM) declaration
  • Compliance review of IPPC marks on wooden packaging
  • Self-inspection report for equipment outside the legal inspection catalog

Five key dimensions of qualification preparation

After the upgrade of 2025 customs AEO certification standards, import enterprises need to pay special attention to:

• Quality and safety management systems must include special equipment maintenance clauses
• Customs declaration document retention period extended to 7 years
• Importers need to establish equipment component traceability systems
• Legal departments must be equipped with international trade compliance specialists
• Customs declaration error rate threshold reduced to below 0.5%

High-frequency issue response strategies

A mining groups import case in March 2025 showed that customs inspection issues mainly focused on:

• Nameplate identification disputes: Chinese-English parameter deviations exceeding 5%
• Missing accompanying documents: Pressure gauge calibration certificate expired
• HS code challenge responses: Combined determination of crushing function and screening modules

Recommended for enterprises to establishThree-stage pre-review mechanism: Complete technical document compliance review 15 days before equipment shipment, simulate customs challenge responses 7 days before port arrival, and archive dispute resolution solutions 3 days after clearance.

The value embodiment of professional agency services

In a provincial-level key project case, professional agency services reduced customs clearance time by 40%:

• Early intervention in equipment selection stage to avoid classification risks
• Coordinate third-party inspection agencies for on-site pre-inspection
• Establish a rapid response channel for customs classification disputes
• Seamless integration of bonded warehousing with domestic logistics

Through the full-process visual management system, document processing time is reduced to within 72 hours, and response time for exceptional cases is improved to within 2 hours.
