I have previously cooperated with Mr.He from Lianyungang,who runs an engineering machinery export business.In 2025,he hired a small local agent to export 3 crawler excavators to Indonesia.Due to incorrect HS classification,he paid an extra 22% anti-dumping duty.In addition,the lashing of over-dimensional containers failed to meet the requirements of the destination port,resulting in more than 8,000 USD in demurrage charges after the goods arrived,with total losses of nearly 400,000 RMB.This situation is very common among Lianyungang electromechanical export enterprises.Many enterprises assume that hiring a local agent will save trouble,but end up suffering heavy losses due to the agent’s insufficient professional capacity.
4 Core Pain Points for Lianyungang Electromechanical Export
- HS classification disputes: Power,working principle and brand are the three core elements for electromechanical product classification.Incorrect classification will lead to tax supplementary payment requests or cargo detention by customs.In 2026,ASEAN further tightens the rules of origin for electromechanical products under RCEP.If the information on the certificate of origin is inconsistent with the classification,enterprises will be directly ineligible for tariff reduction and exemption policies.
- Over-dimensional equipment transportation risks: Most large electromechanical products are OOG (Out of Gauge) cargo.If lashing and reinforcement do not meet the operation standards of Lianyungang Port or the destination port,it will cause demurrage charges in mild cases,cargo damage in severe cases,or even refusal of carriage by shipping companies.
- Lagging anti-dumping early warning: In 2026,the EU,India and Mexico added 3 new anti-dumping measures against Chinese electromechanical products,with the maximum additional tax rate reaching 47%.Many enterprises do not check relevant policies in advance,and only learn about the high payable tariffs after the goods arrive at the port,leaving them no choice but to return or abandon the goods.
- Tax refund and foreign exchange receipt risks: Inconsistent information among customs declaration documents,logistics documents and foreign exchange receipt vouchers will directly lead to the rejection of tax refund applications,and even be identified as tax fraud.If the foreign exchange receipt path is non-compliant,there will also be risks of account freezing and payment failure.

Practical Risk Avoidance Suggestions for Electromechanical Export Agency
Referring to the aforementioned Mr.He,he had a batch of road construction machinery equipment to be exported to Jakarta in 2026,and contacted us for operation.First of all,our classification specialist adjusted the previously declared code 84295210 to 84295290 according to the latest 2026 Indonesian HS rules and the actual use of the equipment (exclusive for infrastructure projects).This code is not included in Indonesia’s anti-dumping list,and also enjoyed a 5% tariff reduction with the RCEP certificate of origin,saving Mr.He nearly 320,000 RMB on this single item.
In addition,Lianyungang Port updated the lashing requirements for over-dimensional electromechanical equipment in 2026.All electromechanical products exceeding the size of 40-foot containers must present a third-party lashing qualification certificate before boarding the ship.Many local agents are unaware of this new regulation,and only find the certificate missing when the goods arrive at the port,requiring an extra inspection fee of 1,500 RMB per container,and also delaying the shipping schedule by 3 to 5 days.Our operation team will prepare all required documents in advance to completely avoid such problems.
Here are 3 risk warnings for all Lianyungang electromechanical export enterprises,all drawn from actual lessons learned from previous mistakes:First,do not deliberately split the declaration of complete machines and spare parts to save tariffs.In 2026,Lianyungang Customs has increased the inspection rate of split declarations for electromechanical products to 27%.Once identified as false declaration,enterprises will be included in the dishonest list,all subsequent goods will be subject to 100% inspection rate,and their tax refund qualification will also be affected.Second,do not use unfamiliar third-party accounts for foreign exchange receipt.In 2026,the State Administration of Foreign Exchange has further intensified the traceability verification of foreign exchange receipts from electromechanical exports.Once funds involving underground banks are involved,the account will be directly frozen,which takes at least half a year to unfreeze,seriously affecting the cash flow of enterprises.Third,do not purchase low-tariff grey customs clearance services for destination port clearance.At present,customs of many countries in Europe,America and Southeast Asia are retrospectively reviewing historical import records.Once under-declaration is found,all tariffs within the past 10 years will be recovered,and enterprises may also be included in the import blacklist,making it impossible to clear all subsequent goods.
