import (26)
This article was first published on Yiwuagt.com. The site has a lot of articles about China imports knowledge.
Since April 2022, affected by various factors, the exchange rate of RMB against the US dollar has fallen rapidly, depreciated continuously. As of May 26, the central parity rate of the RMB exchange rate has fallen to around 6.65.
2021 is a year when China's foreign trade exports surge, with exports reaching US$3.36 trillion, setting a new record in history, and the global share of exports is also increasing. Among them, the three categories with the largest growth are: mechanical and electrical products and high-tech products, labor-intensive products, steel, non-ferrous metals and chemical products.
However, in 2022, due to factors such as the decline in overseas demand, the domestic epidemic, and the huge pressure on the supply chain, export growth dropped significantly. This means that 2022 will usher in an ice age for the foreign trade industry.
Today's article will analyze from several aspects. Under such circumstances, is it still suitable to import products from China? In addition, you can go to read: The Complete Guide to Importing from China.
1. RMB depreciates, raw material prices fall
Rising raw material costs in 2021 have implications for all of us. Wood, copper, oil, steel and rubber are all raw materials that almost all suppliers can't avoid. As raw material costs rise, the product prices in 2021 have also risen a lot.
However, with the devaluation of the RMB in 2022, raw material prices fall, prices of many products will also drop. This is a very good condition for importers.
2. Due to insufficient operating rate, some factories will take the initiative to reduce prices for clients
Compared with last year's full orders, this year's factories are obviously underutilized. In terms of factories, some factories are also willing to reduce prices, in order to achieve the purpose of increasing orders. In such a case, MOQ and price have better room for negotiation.
3. The cost of shipping has dropped
Since the impact of COVID-19, ocean freight rates have been rising. The highest even reached 50,000 US dollars / high cabinet. And even though ocean freight is very high, shipping lines still don't have enough containers to meet freight demand.
In 2022, China have taken a series of measures in response to the current situation. One is to crack down on illegal charges and drive up freight rates, and the other is to improve customs clearance efficiency and reduce the time that goods stay in ports. Under these measures, shipping costs have dropped significantly.
At present, there are mainly the above advantages for importing from China. All in all, compared to 2021, import costs in 2022 will be significantly lower. If you are considering whether to import products from China, you can refer to our article to make a judgment. As a professional sourcing agent with 23 years of experience, we believe that now may be the perfect time to import products from China.

In order to alleviate the exhaustion of everyone, a game was also arranged in the middle of the meeting.
The lower half is the focus of the meeting. The person in charge of the departments surrounded the work objectives of this department, summed up the work of the first half of the year, carefully found the shortcomings in the work, and conducted in-depth analysis of unfinished work, proposing the planning of the second half of the year. Our general manager and ceo finally published a speech. This meeting was perfect ending.
On the morning of July 17, all colleagues put on custom clothes and came to the venue again.
We have carried out the "Best Orchestra" team-building activities, which is divided into 6 bands. On-site learning instrument performance and complete a song show. The role played by the orchestra is very rich, guitar, ukri, keyboard, box drum, main singer, etc. Although many employees never learned a musical instrument, after a morning study, the final play of each orchestra is very wonderful. We have completed the performance of 6 songs, which constitute a small concert. Finally, after the "singing the motherland", the team-building activities were ended.
In the afternoon, we visited Ningbo Sellers Union's new building. Compare the Yiwu Sellers Union's Building, Ningbo's new building has added a lot of facilities.

In the case of tight sea and air transportation capacity, the Yiwu to Madrid railway line has become the choice of more and more people. It is the seventh railway connecting China and Europe and is part of the New Silk Road.
1. Overview of the route from Yiwu to Madrid
The Yiwu to Madrid Railway opened on November 18, 2014, with a total length of 13,052 kilometers, which is the longest freight train route in the world. The route departs from Yiwu China, passes through Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus, Poland, Germany, France, and finally reaches Madrid, Spain. It has a total of 41 carriages, can carry 82 containers, and has a total length of more than 550 meters.
Every year, the Yiwu to Madrid route carries nearly 2,000 products including daily necessities, clothing, luggage, hardware tools, and electronic products from Yiwu to countries along the route. The products leaving Madrid are mainly agricultural products, including olive oil, ham, red wine, pork products, skin care products, and nutritional health products. If you want to easily import all kinds of products from China, then finding a professional Chinese sourcing agent is your best choice.
2. Why choose Yiwu and Madrid as the starting and ending points
As we all know, Yiwu is China's wholesale center, has the world's largest small commodity wholesale market. 60% of Christmas ornaments in the world come from Yiwu. It is also one of the main purchasing centers for toys and textiles, electronic products and auto parts, which can meet the needs of customers for centralized purchasing. In addition, Yiwu skilled shipping workers can create more benefits for you. For example, the volume of a container is 40 cubic meters. In other places, workers can load up to 40 cubic meters of goods. In Yiwu, professional and skilled workers can load 43 or even 45 cubic meters of cargo.
At the end of the route, Madrid Spain, has a large number of overseas Chinese business resources to support the supply of this train. As many as 1.445 million overseas Zhejiang merchants know the Yiwu market very well and are an important force in the import and export of Yiwu market. Three-quarters of the small commodities sold in the Spanish market are from Yiwu. Madrid is also known as the European Commodity Center.
China is Spain's main business and economic partner in Asia, and it is also the main destination for Spain's exports in the region. Choose Yiwu and Madrid as the starting and ending points to better connect the world's largest consumer goods wholesale market with European commodity centers.
3. Achievements and significance of the route from Yiwu to Madrid
The Yiwu to Madrid Railway is an important carrier and platform of the “Belt and Road” initiative. In addition to greatly stimulating the import and export trade between Yiwu and the countries along the route, it also shines as a "green channel" on the global anti-epidemic arena. The traffic green channel is conducive to alleviating traffic pressure, speeding up customs clearance, reducing customs clearance procedures, and playing a key role in the process of transporting medical supplies and other goods to Spain.
From January to May of 2021, China shipped a total of 12,524 tons of anti-epidemic materials to European countries by train. In 2020, Yiwu handled 1,399 China-Europe freight trains via the freight route connecting Xinjiang in northwestern China with Europe, a year-on-year increase of 165%.
4. Advantages of Yiwu to Madrid route
1. Timeliness: It only takes 21 days to go directly to Madrid, Spain, with fast customs clearance, and customs clearance can be completed within 1 to 2 working days at the fastest. By sea, it usually takes 6 weeks to arrive.
2. Price: In terms of price, it is slightly higher than sea freight, but it is nearly 2/3 cheaper than air freight.
3. Stability: Maritime transportation is greatly affected by weather conditions on sea routes, and there are often various unexpected factors. Other conditions, including port conditions, may cause cargo delays. China-Europe Express train transportation can better solve this problem.
4. High service flexibility: China-Europe Express provides door-to-door service across the EU, as well as FCL and LCL, classic and dangerous goods, and accepts more types of goods than sea and air. It is very suitable for transporting high-value industrial products such as auto parts, electronic products and computer equipment. It is also suitable for promotional and seasonal products that need to reach their destination as soon as possible.
5. Environmentally friendly, less pollution.
6. The railway transportation is stable and sufficient, and the transportation cycle is short. Compared with sea containers, which are “difficult to find”, air transportation is “fuse”, and railway transportation can control the time. Yiwu to Madrid has 1 to 2 columns per week, and Madrid to Yiwu has 1 column per month.
7. Can increase the selectivity of supply. Because the Yiwu-Madrid route passes through many countries, it is more convenient to purchase specialty products from these countries.
Note: Due to incompatible gauges, the goods have to be transshipped 3 times during the journey. Locomotives must also be replaced every 500 miles. The train changed three times along the way due to different gauges in China, Europe and Russia. Each container transfer only takes one minute.
The speed of customs clearance of China-Europe Express is faster than that of ocean freight, but in the same way, you also need to submit customs clearance information:
1. Railway waybill, a freight document issued by the railway carrier.
2. Goods packing list
3. One copy of the contract
4. Invoice
5. Customs declaration documents (specification/packing list)
6. One copy of the power of attorney for inspection application
Next are several factors that may affect the speed of customs clearance:
1. After preparing the corresponding customs clearance information, fail to fill in the consignee and harvest information truthfully
2. The contents of the packing list are not consistent with the contents of the waybill
(Including: shipper, consignee, loading port, destination/unloading port, mark and part number, cargo name and customs code, number of pieces, weight, size and volume of a single piece of cargo, etc.)
3. The goods are seized
4. There are prohibited products in the goods
(A, IT products such as mobile phones and computers
(B, clothing, shoes and hats
(C, cars and accessories
(D. Grain, wine, coffee beans
(E, material, furniture
(F, chemicals, machinery and equipment, etc.
If taxes and fees are incurred, they need to be paid in time. Otherwise, the goods will not be transported and need to be confirmed and processed in time. You can also confirm whether the tax and fee processing services are included when the entrusted freight forwarder is suitable.
Relatively speaking, generally larger freight forwarding companies will have more guaranteed service, but relatively small freight forwarding companies also have its advantages. They may have a relatively high cost performance. This depends on your choice. You can choose from service and transportation cycle. And the customs clearance ability and the price are considered in many aspects.
Good packaging is a prerequisite to ensure the safety of goods
Next, classify according to carton goods, box goods, and special goods
I have sorted out the packaging requirements for cargo transportation through China-Europe Express trains.
1. Carton packaging standard:
1. There is no deformation, no damage, and no openings in the carton rules;
2. The carton is free from dampness or dampness;
3. No pollution or greasy outside the carton;
4. The carton is completely sealed;
5. The carton is clearly marked, indicating the nature of the goods and packing requirements;
2. Packing standard of wooden box pallet goods:
1. The tray has no legs, deformation, damage, wetness, etc.;
2. No damage, leaks, oily pollution, etc. on the outside;
3. The load-bearing weight of the bottom support exceeds the weight of the cargo;
4. The outer packaging and the bottom support or the goods are firmly reinforced and self-contained;
5. The goods are completely sealed;
6. Reasonable placement of internal goods, effective reinforcement, and avoid shaking in the packaging;
7. The nature of the goods shall be indicated on the wooden box or pallet, including the following points:
1) Limits on the number of stacked layers and weight;
2) The position of the center of gravity of the cargo;
3) The weight and size of the cargo;
4) Whether it is fragile, etc.;
5) Cargo hazard identification.
It is especially important to note that if the packaging of wooden boxes and pallets is unqualified, it will affect the entire transportation and loading and unloading process. It needs to be inspected from the beginning of the product delivery, and then loaded and transported if it is qualified.
3. Overweight cargo (goods weighing more than 5 tons) packaging and packing requirements
1. The cargo bottom support adopts a four-channel structure, and the cargo pallet meets the requirements of container weight (the maximum load-bearing capacity of a 40-foot container floor is 1 ton square meter, and the maximum load-bearing capacity of a 20-foot container floor is 2 tons/square meter);
2. The strength of the outer packaging is sufficient to support cargo loading and unloading (unloading by crane with bandage) and packing requirements.
3. The strength of the pallet is sufficient to support the weight of the goods, and the wooden strips will not be broken during the unloading and packing process.
4. The bottom of the pallet is flat and there are no screws, nuts or other protruding parts to avoid damage to the container.
5. The packaging of goods meets the packaging standards of wooden box and pallet goods.
Note: If the packaging of the goods is fragile or cannot be stacked, you need to fill in the relevant information truthfully when booking to avoid loss of goods caused by packaging problems. The loss caused by packaging problems will be borne by the shipper.

As the market grows on freight demand, the team of China-Europe Railway Express is also constantly expanding. Yiwu to London Railway opened on January 1, 2017, the whole journey was approximately 12451 km, which is the world's second long railway freight route only after Yiwu to Madrid Railway.
1. Yiwu to London Railway Overview
The route starts from China Yiwu, passing through Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus, Poland, Germany, Belgium, France, etc. After the Channel Tunnel, finally arrived in London, UK, which took about 18 days.
This railway from Yiwu to London is China's Article 8 International Railway Line. London has also become the 15th European city which have railways connect with China. (Other European cities with China-Europe Railways include Hamburg, Madrid, Rotterdam, Warsaw, etc.).
2. The advantages of Yiwu to London Railway
As we all know, the time of sea shipping is very long, and the price of air transport is very expensive. In the case of tension of logistics and freight, China-Europe Railway Express play an important role in stabilizing international freight. China-Europe Railway transportation speed is about 30 days faster than the ship, and the cost is much cheaper than air transport, and it is more stable and safe.
Take Yiwu to London Railway as an example, there are trains to London every week, and 200 containers can be loaded at a time, and it is small Influence by the weather. The sea shipping needs to pass the Channel Tunnel. There are many ships, and the channel crowded is easy to accident, sometimes there is a serious delay, so the railway freight is relatively safe. In addition, the amount of carbon dioxide emissions emissions from railways only accounts for 4% of the air transport, which is slightly higher than the sea shipping, in line the vision with China and EU to build a sustainable and green environment.
Note: Due to the difference orbital in the countries along Yiwu to the London Railway, its locomotives and compartments need to be replaced on the way.
3. Yiwu to London route market demand
Yiwu to London
Mainly carrying products from Yiwu market, including luggage, household items, electronic products, etc.
London to Yiwu
Mainly food, including soft drinks, vitamins, drugs and baby products, frozen meat, etc.
Although the railway isn't a feasible transportation of all types of products, but they have played an important role in high-value products that need to transport as soon as possible, such as electronic products, fashion items, automotive parts, agricultural products and fresh meat.
During the past two years, China Trade is seeking to bypass the transportation delays through land export goods. The wave of European demand has further promoted the growth of freight through the internationality railway, China is also planning other European railway freight routes.
4. The significance and achievement of Yiwu to London Railway
Yiwu to London Railway is part of the North Line of "One Belt", which is designed to strengthen China's trade relationships with Europe, and revive the past Silk Road. It is also very good to achieve its value, making it more convenient to import and export between Yiwu and London. Current Yiwu to London Railway has become one of the important logistics channels connected to European countries in the Yangtze River Delta region.
Yiwu is a small commodity center in eastern Zhejiang Province, is one of the many cities benefited from this service. According to Yiwu Customs, the total value of Yiwu foreign trade import and export has reached 31.295 billion yuan in 2020. The total value of the cargo in China-Europe Railway Express import and export reached 20.6 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 96.7%.
