On March 7, 2022, under the approval and guidance of Shenzhen Customs, Huizhou China Brilliant obtained the qualification of ‘Approved Exporter’ under the RCEP, and the customs clearance efficiency was further improved. RCEP is the largest and most influential free trade agreement in the world, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement, which came into force on January 1, 2022.

The implementation of the ‘approved exporter’ system is one of the highlights of RCEP, and is an important facilitation measure of origin certification issued by the General Administration of Customs. The enterprise of ‘approved exporter’, whose goods need not apply for the certificate of origin from the customs one by one, can issue the declaration of origin independently at any time, and the effect is equivalent to the certificate of origin issued by the customs. At the same time, it can apply for preferential tariff treatment at the time of declaration of import by the contracting countries of the RCEP agreement, Mauritius, Iceland and Switzerland. ‘Approved exporter’ can reduce the economic cost of customs clearance, improve the efficiency of customs clearance, and make enterprises more flexible in arranging the production and export of goods, which is of great significance to improve the international competitiveness of enterprises.

To become an ‘approved exporter’, three important conditions need to be met: to be an AEO advanced certification enterprise; Master the rules of origin under relevant preferential trade agreements; Establish a complete management system of origin qualification documents. The acquisition of the ‘Approved Exporter’ qualification of Huizhou China Brilliant represents the high recognition of the credit rating of Huizhou China Brilliant by the customs and other government departments, and also highlights the technical precipitation and advanced level of Huizhou China Brilliant in customs clearance and management.

AEO Advanced Certification Enterprise and RCEP Approved Exporter Qualification are two advantages. Huizhou China Brilliant will give full play to the ‘Approved Exporter’ qualification advantages and the linkage advantages of China Brilliant Industrial Internet Platform to help customer enterprises effectively integrate into the global industrial chain, supply chain and value chain, and contribute to accelerating the construction of a new domestic and international dual-cycle development pattern.
