Common Hurdles in Syrup Import Clearance

When importing syrup to China, foreign businesses often encounter issues like non-compliant documentation for food safety regulations, complex tariff classification for liquid products, and delays in inspection due to strict quality control requirements. Based on our 10+ years of experience in Guangzhou ports, these issues can add up to 10 days of unnecessary waiting time for syrup shipments.

For example, a Polish syrup manufacturer once spent 8 days waiting for customs clearance because their certificate of analysis was not in the required electronic format. This not only delayed their product launch in China but also increased storage costs at the port.

Our Syrup Import Clearance Process: Precision and Compliance

At Panyue International, we have a meticulous process for syrup imports. First, our customs specialists conduct a 24-hour pre-review of all documentation. This includes verifying the accuracy of food safety certificates, ensuring correct tariff classification for syrup products, and checking compliance with China’s General Administration of Customs regulations. For a recent case with a German syrup client, we identified a minor error in their bill of lading within hours and corrected it, reducing their clearance time by 6 days.

• 24-hour document pre-review (ensuring all paperwork meets Chinese regulations)
