| China Trade Management Issues and Challenges | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Conducting international trade within China can be difficult and complex which holds true for most international sourcing and manufacturing destinations. China's General and Processing Trade regulatory challenges can vary by region and are challenging to navigate. While the central government provides a framework for importers and exporters to conduct business, challenges easily result from regional and local governments implementing various controls. Complicating the issue further is the autonomy that a Customs official has at the port of entry. Regulations in China can change instantly and extend lead times and variability within a company's supply chain. Unlike a number of countries, China has yet to deploy mechanisms for posting information in advance. Instead, a loose network of regulatory bodies exists across the country. A company that is more familiar with a structured and relatively standardized regulatory environment easily discovers that minimal advance notice of regulatory changes dramatically affects product distribution.
In addition, it is important for companies engaging in import and export activities in China to take into account all components of the supply chain. With China being an attractive location for sourcing and manufacturing goods, it's crucial to understand the impact of cross-border documentation, licensing requirements, and compliance with local regulations on supply chain performance.
