Rotational molding in 2025equipment. For example, Indonesia has the SNI certification, Thailand has the TISI certification, and the Philippines has the BPS certification. It is necessary to confirm in advance the equipment voltage (such as 380V/50Hz in Thailand), the compatibility of the CE certification, and the proof of environmentally friendly materials.New market trends

Against the backdrop of a 4.7% annual growth in global demand for plastic products, Chinas import volume of rotational molding equipment has maintained double - digit growth for three consecutive years. The latest customs data shows that in 20251-June, the import value exceeded 1.2 billion US dollars, but the return rate increased by 3.2 percentage points year - on - year, mainly involving deviations in equipment specification determination and non - compliance with environmental protection parameters.

Analysis of key control points in the entire import process

The complete operation cycle takes about 45 - 60 working days, among which the technical preparation stage often consumes more than 30% of the time:

• Verification of equipment technical parameters
  • The motor power matches the energy consumption standard EN 60204-1:2025
  • The melting temperature control system needs to comply with the ISO 9001:2025 certification
• Economic calculation of the transportation plan
  • The loading limit of a 20 - foot container is 3.5 tons
  • The transportation cost of a bulk carrier is 40% lower than that of a full container, but the cycle is extended by 15 days

Three minefields in customs clearance declaration

Under the new HS code subdivision rules in 2025, the misclassification rate of rotational molding equipment has climbed to 17%:

• Declaration of split functional modulesResulting in a 9.7% increase in the整機(jī) customs duty
• The environmental protection parameters are missing.Trigger the withholding of the security deposit (with an average detention of 23 working days).
• It is recommended to verify through the following methods:Certificate defectsCause a 7.5% loss of tax incentives for importers.

Core Value Proposition of Professional Brokers

A manufacturing enterprise in Jiangsu optimized its import costs through professional agents:

• Saved $123,000 in tariffs by using the RCEP agreement.
• The pre - classification service shortened the customs clearance time by 5 working days.
• The localization transformation of technical documents avoided a rectification loss of 300,000 yuan.

Hidden risk points in equipment acceptance.

The 2025 version of the Quality and Safety Specifications for Imported Mechanical and Electrical Products requires:

• The pressure vessel module must provide ASME certification.
• The temperature control system shall be accompanied by a calibration report with CE certification.
• The insulation test value of electrical components shall not be lower than 1200MΩ.

The decision - making model for choosing an agency.

It is recommended to establish an evaluation system from four dimensions:

• Industry case database: Successfully operate more than 50 rotational molding equipment.
• Technical compliance team: Be equipped with at least 2 mechanical engineers.
• Emergency handling capacity: Complete the communication of technical disputes within 72 hours.
• Cost Control Plan: Provide more than three tax optimization paths.
