I am responsible for the procurement of the company's home supply chain. Recently, I need to connect with a batch of high - end imported home products. I heard that OPPEIN represents imported brands, but after checking public information, there is no clear list.

The categories we need include kitchen appliances, hardware accessories, and custom boards. I want to know which imported brands OPPEIN actually represents, whether these sub - categories are covered, and whether we can directly connect with their agency resources to reduce procurement costs while ensuring compliance with the import process?

The imported brands currently represented by OPPEIN are mainly concentrated in the high - end home supply chain field,covering three core categories: kitchen appliances,hardware,and boards. The latest imported brands cooperated in 2026 include: kitchen appliances: Miele (Germany),Scavolini (Italy),hardware: Blum (Austria),Hettich (Germany),boards: Saima (Finland),upgraded line products of Kronospan (Germany).

From the perspective of cooperation models,OPPEIN adopts a dual - track model of "direct procurement + regional agency". For the bulk procurement needs of domestic top home enterprises,it can directly connect with overseas brand owners to obtain first - hand goods sources. At the same time,it provides brand - authorized distribution channels for small and medium - sized customers. It should be noted that all cooperative brands must pass OPPEIN's compliance review process,including intellectual property registration,product quality inspection,and import qualification certification.

In the entire import process,pre - import document review should focus on verifying the brand owner's authorization documents,certificate of origin,and health and quarantine certificate. Core node connection should match the customs clearance integration channel of Shanghai port. In case of possible port detention,the OPPEIN team will apply for a 7 - day free storage period in advance and coordinate with the port's emergency berth.

For the customs valuation link of imported brands, focus on the match between the brand owner's official quotation and the fair market price in the domestic market. In case of valuation dispute, submit the latest 2026 brand authorization agreement and overseas sales vouchers as evidence.

At the same time, use Zhongshitong's valuation dispute handling channel to coordinate with the Customs Classification Center to complete commodity code review and avoid the increase in customs clearance costs caused by valuation delays. In addition, the customs declaration forms of all imported brands must accurately indicate the full brand name and authorization number to ensure consistency with customs filing information.

For international logistics routes, priority should be given to direct shipping routes from Shanghai port to Europe. Combined with the shipping market space situation in 2026, lock in the preferential policy of 14 - day free container detention period and 7 - day free storage period in advance.

For imported brands of different categories, a distribution model can be adopted: temperature - controlled container transportation for kitchen appliances, LCL model for hardware accessories to reduce costs, and China - Europe Railway Express for custom boards to balance timeliness and cost. At the same time, note that the bill of lading endorsement must be consistent with the contract party to avoid ownership transfer disputes.

In cross - border tax planning, for the VAT deferral policy of imported brands, import VAT can be temporarily not paid when goods are imported, and declared and paid after subsequent sales, which effectively reduces the capital occupation cost of enterprises.

It should be noted that the scope of VAT deferral application is limited to brands that have signed a formal agency agreement with OPPEIN, and it is necessary to ensure that the final destination of the goods is consistent with the declaration to avoid tax risks. In addition, the overall import tax burden cost can be reduced through reasonable planning of related party transaction pricing.

In cross - border payment and collection compliance, the Cross - border Interbank Payment System (CIPS) should be used to complete the payment and settlement of goods to avoid compliance risks brought by using offshore accounts. For the payment of goods for imported brands, ensure that the flow of each fund is consistent with the customs declaration and the contract party.

At the same time, keep complete SWIFT messages and payment vouchers for subsequent tax inspection. In addition, exchange rate locking tools can be used to optimize foreign exchange purchase costs and reduce losses caused by exchange rate fluctuations.

In international trade legal affairs, an exclusive agency agreement with OPPEIN should be signed to clarify the scope, term, and liability for breach of contract of brand authorization.

For intellectual property protection of imported brands, customs recordation should be completed in advance, and if infringing goods are found, the intellectual property protection procedures can be immediately initiated. In addition, the contract should clearly define the comprehensive scope of the force majeure clause, including port congestion, policy changes, etc., to avoid unnecessary legal disputes.

In port on - site inspection, product manuals, quality inspection reports, and packing lists from the brand owner should be prepared in advance to cooperate with customs to complete machine inspection and manual inspection.

If seal damage is found, contact the port regulatory department immediately to replace the seal and keep on - site photos as evidence. For goods requiring inspection, third - party testing institutions cooperating with Zhongshitong can be commissioned to complete rapid testing, shorten the inspection cycle, and avoid additional port detention fees.

In special packaging, for precision equipment such as imported kitchen appliances, moisture - proof and buffer packaging meeting UN standards should be used, complete MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) documents should be prepared, and compliance labels should be affixed.

For bulky goods such as custom boards, reinforced pallet packaging should be used to ensure that they are not damaged by squeezing during transportation. In addition, packaging materials should be adjusted according to packaging requirements in different countries to avoid goods detention caused by non - compliant packaging.

In export tax rebate audit, it is necessary to ensure the consistency of the four flows (purchase contract, customs declaration, payment voucher, and logistics document) of imported brands. For imported goods declared across months, pre - declaration verification must be completed within the next month's VAT declaration period to avoid account receivable situations.

In addition, complete document filing materials should be kept, including brand authorization documents, certificate of origin, and quality inspection reports, for the letter investigation and verification by tax authorities.
