China Customs

Customs duty & import rules

China operates one of the strictest customs regimes in the world — important for Bangalore tech exporters to understand before booking. The personal-parcel duty-free threshold is CNY 1,000 (raised from CNY 50 in older guidance) per shipment, but most B2B samples still attract VAT and item duty. For personal parcels there is an additional postal tax of 13–50% depending on category, with a CNY 50 waiver if total tax falls below that.

Standard VAT is 13%; consumer-electronics duty 0–10%; clothing 14–23%; food items 8–22%. For Bangalore B2B tech samples to Shenzhen, Guangzhou or Shanghai OEMs we recommend declaring as “samples of no commercial value” where genuinely applicable (small qty, marked / defaced). China customs accepts this with clean documentation. CCC certification is required for certain electronics categories — call us if you’re shipping consumer-grade tech.

Documentation requirements are strict — consignee Chinese ID number or company tax number is mandatory for clearance. Print materials with religious or political content, maps showing disputed borders, and used items are routinely returned. We pre-screen every China-bound parcel.

Most parcels clear at Shanghai Pudong (PVG), Beijing Capital (PEK), Guangzhou Baiyun (CAN) or Shenzhen Bao’an (SZX). Average clearance is 2–4 business days when paperwork is clean.

Duty-free limit: CNY 1,000 personal-parcel / CNY 50 postal-tax waiver
Documentation: KYC + commercial invoice + recipient Chinese ID / tax number
Average clearance: 2–4 business days
Major ports of entry: PVG (Shanghai), PEK (Beijing), CAN (Guangzhou), SZX (Shenzhen)
VAT: 13% standard, 8–22% category-specific duty

No fresh dairy (rasgulla, paneer, mawa-based items not allowed), no meat-derived products, no fresh produce. Ingredient list in English mandatory.

Consignee Chinese tax number / company registration is required. Check CCC requirement for consumer electronics before booking.

Do you ship to Hong Kong and Macau?

Hong Kong and Macau are separate customs territories from mainland China — different rates, different transit, different rules. We ship there too, but quote separately. Hong Kong is a free port (no duty / VAT for most goods); Macau is similar. Call for a Hong Kong / Macau-specific quote.

Can you pick up from a Bangalore tech park?

Routine — we run pickup loops to Manyata, Bagmane, Embassy, RMZ and Prestige. Each campus needs a visitor pass or internal contact for gate clearance — tell us your tower, floor and a contact name at booking. We coordinate with the security desk. This is most of our China-bound volume — hardware startups in Whitefield / Electronic City shipping PCB & prototype samples to Shenzhen OEMs.
