Avoiding Traps in Forklift License and Use Requirements

The core of the issue:When importing used electromechanical equipment, enterprises should carefully study relevant regulations and understand which types of containers are prohibited from import. Even if a certain fixed - type pressure vessel has obtained the special equipment license of our country, if it is listed as a used electromechanical product prohibited from import, it still cannot be imported.

2) Relevant regulations and misconceptions:Some enterprises will attach movable gas storage tanks connected to the equipment when importing electromechanical equipment. These gas storage tanks often require the Special Equipment Production License.

The misunderstanding here is the confusion of the concepts of fixed - type pressure vessels and gas cylinders. According to the provisions of the Safety Technical Supervision Regulations for Fixed - type Pressure Vessels, these movable gas storage tanks still belong to fixed - type pressure vessels.When importing this type of electromechanical equipment, enterprises should clarify the attributes of special equipment goods and provide corresponding license documents for online verification.

The core of the issue:Some enterprises often encounter a judgment of unqualified quality and safety by the customs during the arrival inspection stage when importing used forklifts, because these forklifts belong to special equipment, specifically special motor vehicles for on - site (factory) use.
