According to a recent announcement from the China Waste Plastics Association, on May 30, the Supervision Department of the General Administration of Customs issued urgent documents to the Guangdong Branch and other direct customs offices. These documents confirm that the "Three Unifications" policy proposed by the association will be implemented as the regulatory framework for the import of recycled plastic pellets.
The new regulations specify that primary processed recycled plastic pellets derived from waste plastics must meet certain criteria. They should have a consistent color, uniform particle size and shape, and standardized packaging. Additionally, they must comply with the relevant specifications and standards for plastic materials or products. If these conditions are met, they will not be classified as solid waste.
However, if during the customs inspection process, the recycled plastic particles are suspected of being solid waste, they will be subject to further identification and classification according to the rules governing solid waste.
In addition to the “three unifications,†the goods must also meet the applicable standards and specifications for plastic materials or related products. To ensure smooth customs clearance, companies are advised to prepare detailed product descriptions. It is also recommended that manufacturers provide relevant inspection reports or test results that demonstrate the physical properties of the goods, ensuring they meet the contractual requirements agreed upon by both parties.
This update reflects a more structured approach to regulating the import of recycled plastics, aiming to balance environmental protection with trade efficiency. Businesses involved in this sector should stay informed and adjust their documentation accordingly to avoid delays or complications during the import process.
