Customs declaration duty for used mechanical and electrical imports?

when importing used mechanical and electrical products, you should first confirm the "declared name" and HS code of the specific imported goods, and at the same time check the relevant documents to confirm whether the imported goods are products in the Catalogue of Prohibited Used Mechanical and Electrical Products. If the imported goods have been listed in the List of Inspection and Supervision Measures for Imported Used Mechanical and Electrical Products, they should be inspected before entering the country at the place of departure or transit, and can only be shipped after obtaining the pre-shipment certificate. After the used mechanical and electrical equipment arrives in Hong Kong, it shall be declared to the competent customs with the pre-shipment inspection certificate, and the customs shall carry out the arrival inspection as required.

if it is difficult for an enterprise to judge whether the imported products belong to the inspection scope of used mechanical and electrical products, or whether the imported used mechanical and electrical products need to be inspected before shipment, it can go to the "quality and safety information service platform for imported used mechanical and electrical products" developed by the General Administration of Customs to find out, or entrust a professional freight forwarding company like our company to carry out the whole operation.
