• Check declaration elements in advance: 5 core contents of lamp hardware parts’ declaration elements include material,purpose,brand,model and processing technology.In 2026,Shanghai Port has added new verification requirements for processing technology.Any incorrect filling will lead to direct return for re-declaration,which will delay customs clearance for 2-3 days.Before declaration,we will assign dedicated staff to check all declaration elements and submit them after confirmation of correctness.

At the end of last year,Manager Wen from Zhejiang imported a batch of lamp hardware bases from Vietnam.The previous agent he contacted for declaration failed the customs check,as the third-party issued certificate of origin did not meet the RCEP origin standard,and he was required to make up 17% tariff.Later he turned to us,we helped him sort out raw material purchase vouchers and production process records of the Vietnamese factory,re-submitted the origin verification application,and passed the review in 3 days,saving him more than 80,000 RMB of tariff,and the port demurrage fee was only 1/3 of the previous estimated amount.

Risk Warning Notice

In 2026,the customs has significantly strengthened valuation supervision over lamp hardware parts.Many customers declare the purchase price lower than the warning price in the customs system when doing self-declaration,which will directly lead to valuation check procedures.Customers need to provide documents including original factory invoice,foreign exchange payment voucher and trade contract for proof,and the fastest verification takes at least 7 days,resulting in unnecessary port demurrage.We conduct pre-commodity inspection and pre-valuation assessment in advance,and provide customers with reasonable declared price suggestions.More than 95% of the declarations can pass the check directly without entering the valuation process.In addition,new carbon footprint verification requirements for steel-made lamp hardware parts are implemented this year.Products with non-compliant carbon footprint will be returned.We can help customers conduct pre-carbon footprint verification in advance to avoid return losses after arrival of the cargo.
