Interpretation | What are the requirements for the inspection and supervision of import and export hazardous chemicals
The above scenarios are often encountered in the business process of enterprises. Today, let's interpret the import and export of hazardous chemicals together.
Firstly, enterprises need to clarify what are hazardous chemicals?
According to Article 3 of the Regulations on the Safety Management of Hazardous Chemicals, the term "hazardous chemicals" referred to in these regulations refers to highly toxic chemicals and other chemicals that have toxic, corrosive, explosive, combustion, and combustion-supporting properties and pose a threat to human health, facilities, and the environment.

Secondly, clarify which import and export hazardous chemicals must be declared to customs?
According to the provisions of the Import and Export Commodity Inspection Law and its implementation regulations, the Regulations on the Safety Management of Hazardous Chemicals, and the Announcement No. 129 of the General Administration of Customs in 2020 (on issues related to the inspection and supervision of import and export hazardous chemicals and their packaging), hazardous chemicals listed in China's "Catalogue of Hazardous Chemicals (2015 Edition)" shall be declared to the customs in accordance with the law and the accompanying documents and materials shall be submitted.
Whether or not the import and export of hazardous chemicals are included in the "Catalogue of Entry and Exit Commodities Subject to Inspection and Quarantine by Entry and Exit Inspection and Quarantine Institutions", they should be truthfully declared to the customs and actively cooperate with the customs in carrying out inspections.
Furthermore, what specific requirements do enterprises need to clarify for the inspection of import and export hazardous chemicals and their packaging?
According to the "Import and Export Commodity Inspection Law" and its implementation regulations, as well as the "Regulations on the Safety Management of Hazardous Chemicals", customs conduct inspections on import and export hazardous chemicals and their packaging, and conduct performance and usage evaluations on packaging containers for export hazardous goods.
Requirements for inspection of import and export hazardous chemicals and their packaging.

Increase in reporting items for imported hazardous chemicals
Announcement No. 129 further clarifies the specific items to be filled in during the customs declaration of imported hazardous chemicals. According to the requirements for filling in hazardous chemicals imported in Announcement 129, enterprises need to make a judgment in advance on the relevant hazardous information of the imported hazardous chemicals. According to the rules of international regulations such as the United Nations' Model Regulations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (TDG) and the International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code (IMDG code), determine/verify the hazard category and UN number of the product.

Finally: Is the consequences of unauthorized sales and use of imported hazardous chemicals being investigated and dealt with by customs without inspection serious?
According to Article 11 of the Import and Export Commodity Inspection Law, the consignee or its agent of imported goods that must be inspected by the commodity inspection agency shall apply for inspection to the commodity inspection agency at the place of customs declaration.
According to Article 46 of the Implementation Regulations of the Import and Export Commodity Inspection Law, if the consignee, consignor, agent inspection and reporting enterprise, or entry-exit express operation enterprise, or inspection personnel of import and export commodities do not provide the true information of the import and export commodities, obtain relevant certificates from the entry-exit inspection and quarantine agency, or do not apply for inspection of legally inspected import and export commodities, in order to evade the inspection of import and export commodities
