China Chemical Import Trade Compliance

Chemical regulations in China are very complex, involving many ministries and regulatory lists. They not only affect chemical industry, but also a range of other sectors including manufacturing, retail and energy. Before you export/import your chemicals to China, you need to know whether these chemicals require any registrations, business licenses or import permits and whether they are prohibited in China. To ensure chemical trade compliance, you may need some help to check your compliance obligations, register these chemicals or apply for needed import licenses/permits.
