Case Studies showcase practical customs clearance and logistics solutions. LOGICUS shares real cases on China import procedures, HS code classification, duties, and compliance checks. Each study highlights how businesses overcome delays, reduce risks, and streamline supply chains. By learning from real operations, companies can optimize customs brokerage, ensure regulatory compliance, and achieve smooth cross-border trade.
No. Only paints that are flammable, corrosive, toxic, or reactive are regulated as dangerous goods.
Solvent-based paints like epoxy or PU coatings often are.
Water-based interior paints and latex coatings usually are not.
Generally no. Most paints—including architectural coatings, floor coatings, wood finishes, and anti-corrosion paints—do not fall under China’s CCC mandatory certification list.
Paint may be indirectly affected in the following cases:
1)It’s applied to a CCC-regulated finished product (e.g., home appliances)
2)It forms part of a fire protection system (e.g., fire-rated doors, intumescent coatings)
3)It’s used on automotive parts under CCC oversight
4)It’s intended for indoor air-sensitive environments, requiring VOC reports or eco-labels
1)SDS (Safety Data Sheet)
2)DG classification report (if applicable)
3)VOC emission test (for interior coatings)
4)Label templates with GHS compliance
5)CCC is usually not required, unless paint is part of a regulated system
Engineered flooring is typically exempt when it:
Is composed of HDF or plywood cores
Has undergone heat press, lamination, surface coating
Is declared as a finished decorative product
Comes with a Declaration of Deep Processing
Use of untreated wood pallets or packaging
Product appears raw or unfinished
Lack of processing description in the customs declaration
Missing or insufficient deep-processing documentation
It’s a formal letter from the supplier confirming the product has been deeply processed and poses no phytosanitary risk.
While not mandatory, it’s highly recommended for smooth clearance.
