Can I import movable container houses directly from China under my personal name?
Sure, but the following conditions must be met:
Identity requirements: Must be a natural person and provide a long-term visa (such as a work or study visa) and proof of residence.
Time limit: Items must be declared within six months of entry and have resided abroad for a total of 365 days in the past two years.
Customs clearance process: It is necessary to entrust a customs declaration agent to submit documents such as passport, visa, luggage declaration form, etc., and pass customs inspection.
Attention: If the container house belongs to special equipment (such as pressure pipelines, etc.), an additional "Imported Special Equipment Type Test Certificate" must be provided.
How do we handle customs clearance after our goods arrive at the destination port?
Customs clearance document list (portable container house)
Core documents:
Commercial invoice: It is necessary to provide a detailed description of the material and purpose (such as "steel structure movable container house"), indicate the HS code, trade terms (DAP/DDP), and buyer and seller information.
Packing list: Consistent with the invoice, listing the contents, gross weight, and volume of each box to avoid "vague declaration".
Bill of lading: Consistent with consignee information, original/telex release is required for sea freight.
Trade contract: Clearly define the specifications, price, and payment method of the goods.
Special documents:
Certificate of Origin: If tariff preferences (such as RCEP) are required, they must comply with the format of the destination country.
Import License: Some countries require the registration of old equipment or prohibit its import.
Inspection and Quarantine Certificate: If wooden packaging is included, an IPPC fumigation certificate is required.
Other possible files:
Technical certification: If it involves electrical safety, CE/FCC certification is required.
Brand authorization letter: If it includes well-known brand designs, authorization proof is required.
Attention: The file information must be completely consistent to avoid withholding goods due to "false declaration". It is recommended to transport high-value goods in batches, with a declared value of less than 1500 euros per ticket.
If you have any requirements, please contact me. Thank you.
