How to clear customs for imported dangerous goods?

Service Description:

If dangerous goods want to be imported, they must be arranged according to the customs regulations. If the packaging and label are unqualified, they will be required to be detained and rectified during the import commodity inspection. Especially for the dangerous goods imported for the first time, we should pay more attention to the relevant provisions on the import of dangerous goods. For the import of dangerous goods that do not meet the requirements of the customs, the customs generally allows them to be returned. Of course, this is the final situation. Before that, there are still ways to deal with these situations, which requires strong operation ability and professional knowledge.

 


Here are the details of dangerous goods import and issues needing attention:


1. On the import documents, it must be noted that the DGD form, notice of arrival and bill of lading must be provided in advance, and the dangerous goods must be pre declared 24 hours before the ship's landing. Otherwise, there may be two consequences: first, the box cannot be disembarked and will be taken to the next port or the original ship!! The second is that the boxes are unloaded first, but there is a fine, ranging from tens of thousands!


2. In terms of customs declaration, whether the business unit pays the tax directly through the electronic port or through the agent, it must pay the tax within 24 hours after the tax receipt is issued. If it exceeds this time, it is easy to be refunded or skipped. The chargeback or inspection mentioned here is not necessarily based on probability. Therefore, the speed and efficiency of tax payment are very important.


3. As for the problem of port dredging for dangerous goods import, according to the requirements of the port authority and the wharf, the cabinets of dangerous goods must be dredged to the dangerous goods warehouse after import. The port dredging involves a series of actions such as scheduling and arranging trailers. There is also a technique for keeping boxes. If used properly, not only the operation will be much simpler, but also the cost will be reduced.


4. In terms of sanitary inspection, I believe that manufacturers who have actually imported dangerous goods will have the biggest headache in the sanitary inspection of dangerous goods. Once the dangerous goods are not pasted with GHS labels conforming to the regulations and UN packaging conforming to the regulations. There are bound to be problems in the mobile health inspection. Once found, the rectification process must be followed. The rectification process not only takes a long time, but also the costs incurred in the dangerous warehouse due to the delay of time and the container detention fees are extremely expensive. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that importers of dangerous goods must post GHS labels and use un packages that meet the requirements. If some shippers are not willing to cooperate or are involved in some special trade terms and trade methods, and cannot stick GHS labels or use un packaging, they must inform us in advance so that we can handle them in advance.


Now, after the implementation of the new import regulations, you can declare customs in advance with the manifest information. If the business unit pays taxes and the animal health inspection work well, it will be cleared within a week!

Special attention shall be paid to the maritime import of dangerous goods. If the following key points are noted, unnecessary additional costs will be saved and customs clearance efficiency will be increased.


First: determine whether there is GHS label on the outer package of the product

Second: whether it is a regular dangerous goods package and whether there is a UN mark

Third: whether the product has prepared the classification and identification report in advance

Fourth: after the customs release, the animal health inspection shall determine where the territory is to inspect the goods

According to the latest dangerous goods import requirements, if the above four points are prepared in advance, it will be very helpful to improve the operation efficiency.

 


In addition, the process of dangerous goods import and unpacking shall be attached

1: Declare the import of dangerous goods 48 hours before the ship berths

2: Shipping company order change

3: Import declaration and inspection

4: If there is a sanitary inspection, it should be done before picking up the goods


For the import of dangerous goods, Chinese formula labels must be made in advance. It shall be pasted on the goods before delivery from abroad, otherwise, it will take time and effort for the commodity inspection to check and detain the goods for rectification during the import customs clearance in Shanghai. The inspection rate of importers of dangerous goods is 100%, and if there is no public label in Chinese, it must be deducted.


Chinese formula label of dangerous goods: the Chinese and English name, chemical formula, common name, etc. of the dangerous goods shall be provided, the key points (such as flammable, explosive, toxic, corrosive, etc.) shall be briefly described, the storage method and safety measures shall be briefly described, the corresponding danger signs of the dangerous goods shall be provided, and the full name, address, post code and contact number of the enterprise shall also be provided. It can be done at the local Commodity Inspection Bureau. Generally, the original will be issued once a week. After the Chinese formula label of dangerous goods is made, it will be posted on the goods by the foreign consignor, and small pieces will be posted.
