一、特殊機(jī)電產(chǎn)品進(jìn)口的”攔路虎”
2022年夏季,一批來自土耳其的工業(yè)變壓器在上海白云國際機(jī)場通關(guān)時,遇到了典型的機(jī)電產(chǎn)品進(jìn)口”三重門”:首先,變壓器作為電磁設(shè)備需要提供CCC certification exemption certificate; Second, the copper content in the core components exceeded 80% and needed separate declaration forprecious metal components;最關(guān)鍵的是,客戶誤將設(shè)備銘牌上的”Refurbished”標(biāo)識理解為翻新設(shè)備,險些觸發(fā)used electromechanical product import ban.
Our team identified these three key risk points within 24 hours of accepting the order: By verifying theoriginal manufacturers statementissued by the Turkish Chamber of Commerce, we confirmed the equipment was actually new stock; coordinated with third-party testing agencies to issuematerial analysis reports; Most dramatically, within 72 hours before the goods arrived at port, we urgently assisted the client in submitting a Pre-shipment Inspection Certificate for Imported Used Electromechanical Products,correction applicationto customs, avoiding at least 15 days of return risk.
二、變壓器進(jìn)口的”通關(guān)密碼本”
In this case, the declaration documents we prepared could serve as a textbook example:
Commercial documents:形式發(fā)票特別標(biāo)注”Factory New Stock”并附土耳其語-英語公證
Special reminder to peers: Since 2022, customs has added newenergy efficiency labelverification requirements forelectromagnetic equipment. The Turkish Ministry of Energys
三、上海機(jī)場清關(guān)的”閃電戰(zhàn)”
documents we prepared happened to meet the equivalency recognition of Chinas GB 20052-2020 standard, this detail saved the client 3% tariff preference.

This clearance set a speed record for our companys transformer products:
privileges: Through the advance declaration + arrival confirmation mode, we completed document review before the plane landed; using the intelligent image review system to pre-transmit 3D scans of the equipment reduced the probability of physical inspection by 80%.

Based on 15 years of agency experience, we summarize three key points for avoiding pitfalls in transformer imports:: Some Turkish companies ship via Serbia, requiring special attention to FORM A certificate of origin issuance location

: Transformers with voltage stabilization function should be classified under 8504.40 rather than 8536.90: Istanbul exports must check for IPPC fumigation marks, absence will lead to entire batch detentionOur established58 hoursIndustry benchmark record.
V. The Future Equation of Mechanical and Electrical Imports
With the RCEP agreement in effect, we have planned a more optimized path for transformer imports from Turkey:
Recently, we have been assisting clients in establishingImport compliance systems, including: Turkish technical document translation template libraries, key component HS code pre-classification databases, special requirement lists for major global ports, etc. As this case demonstrates, the value of professional agents lies not only inSolving problemsbut also inPreventing problems.
