five sided gantry type machine center
Seahog Logistics, an expert China customs broker for used machines and equipment£¬ helped import a used five sided gantry machine center, which was originated in Japan and shipped from Hong Kong. The customs declaration was executed by Seahog on March 21, 2021 at Shenzhen bay,  a land port.  The mechine center was so huge that a flat-bed trailer had to be used to transport it from Hong Kong into mainland China. The destination was Shanwei, Guangdong. 

Based on this clearance case, we would like to share how to define a used machine/equipment.
1.Machines/equipment that have been used but their  basic use value or all use value are still there. 
2.Machines/equipment that tht have been replaced with spare parts or renewed or recovered and the original technical performance is basically maintained and the original functions can still be performed 
3. Overstocked machines/equipment whose guarantee period has expired or whose parts have obvious wear and tear yet the original technical performance can still be exucuted. 


Some Points about the China Import Clearance for Used Machines and Equipment 
1.The customs inspection for used machines and equipment is mainly to check the name plate with information like brand, model, country of origin, manufacturer etc,.  So it is very important for used machines and equipment to such a name plate.
2.Used machine and equipment in measure list shall do pre-shipment quarantine and inspection executed by CCIC and obtain the certificate before shipping to China. Otherwise will end up being returned. 
3.The price verification is the key job that China customs has put on imported used machines and equipment. Since the original invoices are not available for most used machines and equipment, China customs need to inquire the internal data or ask the importer to provide documents that can support the declared prices.
4.When the used machines and equipment are released by the port customs, the importer or their China customs agent shall make appointment for the destination inspection with the customs at the destination. The importer will face fine from customs if install or use the used machines and equipment before the destination inspection takes place.
