# Zhongshen Nanchang Import Customs Declaration Agency: Procedures and Compliance Points

## Nanchang Import Customs Declaration Agency: Common Difficulties and Breakthrough Strategies for Tropical Fruit Import

In the first half of 2026,the import cargo volume of Nanchang Changbei International Airport increased by 18% year-on-year,among which tropical fruits from Southeast Asia account for more than 40%.Mr.Wen runs a local fruit trading company in Nanchang,which imports more than 200 tons of durian and mangosteen from Thailand and Vietnam every year.However,he lost nearly RMB 100,000 due to a customs declaration error last year: after the goods arrived at the port,the origin code on the phytosanitary certificate was filled incorrectly,and Nanchang Customs ordered the goods to be returned,resulting in more than half of the durian in the refrigerated cabin rotted.This is not an isolated case: many import enterprises in Nanchang report that the difficulties of tropical fruit import are concentrated in three links: document consistency verification,port quarantine timeliness,and refrigerated container temperature monitoring,and enterprises without professional agency often fail in these links.

### Core Role of Zhongshen in Tropical Fruit Import

Zhongshen has been deeply engaged in foreign trade agency for over 20 years,and has built a full-process service system of "pre-shipment pre-review + port coordination + commodity inspection coordination" according to the needs of local import enterprises in Nanchang.Different from conventional agencies that only handle customs declaration document submission,Zhongshen’s team will intervene in advance in the communication between cargo owners and foreign suppliers to confirm document compliance; meanwhile,it connects with exclusive windows of Nanchang Customs and Jiangxi Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine Bureau to open a rapid inspection channel for fresh products such as tropical fruits.Manager Hua,head of Zhongshen’s Nanchang Business Department,mentioned: "Many small and medium-sized local traders in Nanchang are not familiar with quarantine requirements for imported tropical fruits.For example,durian must provide a continuous 72-hour refrigerated container temperature log,but many suppliers only provide a single temperature record,which is a common cause of return shipment."

## Core Process Decomposition of Nanchang Import Customs Declaration Agency

Taking Thai durian import as an example,Zhongshen divides the process into three key stages,and each stage designs exclusive services for the unique requirements of tropical fruits:

### 1.Document Pre-review Stage: Avoid "Inherent Defects"

Document requirements for imported tropical fruits are stricter than ordinary goods.Nanchang Customs requires the following documents,and each item has clear format specifications:

- Phytosanitary certificate (issued by Thailand’s official quarantine authority,origin code must be consistent with the bill of lading)
- Certificate of Origin (FORM E,to enjoy ASEAN Free Trade Agreement tariff preference)
- Refrigerated container temperature monitoring record (continuous 72 hours,recorded once every 6 hours,temperature must be stable at 2-4)
- Health certificate (certifying no excessive pesticide residue in fruits)

Zhongshen’s document pre-review team will complete the review 3 days before goods shipment,and contact foreign suppliers immediately for modification if problems are found.Last year,Ms.Zhan’s company imported mangosteen from Vietnam,and the health certificate provided by the foreign supplier lacked "heavy metal testing items".After Zhongshen found the problem in pre-review,it guided the supplier to supplement the test report and avoided the return risk after goods arrival.

### 2.Port Customs Declaration Stage: Improve Customs Clearance Efficiency

There are two main import ports in Nanchang: Nanchang Changbei International Airport (air freight for fresh products) and Port of Nanchang (sea freight transshipment).For air freight durian,Zhongshen will submit the "Fresh Product Rapid Inspection Application" to Nanchang Customs in advance,and coordinate customs to complete inspection within 4 hours after goods arrival.For ordinary enterprises without pre-application,inspection time can be as long as 24 hours,leading to durian deterioration.

During customs declaration,Zhongshen’s team will follow up on site.If customs has doubts about the origin of a batch of goods,the team will immediately provide supporting materials such as supplier cooperation agreements and farm photos to avoid extended inspection time caused by "origin doubt".In 2025,a batch of durian imported by Mr.Wen’s company had inconsistent origin information: the bill of lading marked "Bangkok,Thailand" while the actual port of departure was "Chiang Mai,Thailand".Zhongshen contacted the Thai supplier on site to issue a "Port Change Statement",completed customs clearance and release in only 2 hours,6 hours faster than the industry average time.

### 3.Commodity Inspection Stage: Meet Quarantine Compliance Requirements

The inspection focus of tropical fruits is pest and disease detection (such as Mediterranean fruit fly) and radioactivity detection.Nanchang Commodity Inspection Bureau requires the sampling ratio to be no less than 5%.Zhongshen will communicate with the inspection agency in advance to confirm sampling time and location,avoiding goods backlog caused by delayed sampling.In addition,for shelled fruits such as durian,the inspection bureau requires "shelling for sampling".Zhongshen’s team will prepare shelling tools and sample containers in advance to ensure the sampling process meets specifications.

The following table compares the inspection requirements of tropical fruits and ordinary goods,Zhongshen adjusts service focus according to different product types:

| Product Type | Unique Quarantine Requirements | Zhongshen Exclusive Service |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Thai Durian (Air Freight) | 72-hour continuous refrigerated temperature record,shelling sampling | Pre-audit temperature log,coordinate sampling site |
| Vietnamese Mangosteen (Sea Transshipment) | Heavy metal testing,transshipment document consistency | Pre-coordinate with transshipment port inspection,verify transshipment documents |
| Ordinary Electronic Products (Sea Freight) | 3C Certification,tariff code confirmation | Pre-confirm 3C certificate validity,verify tariff code |

## Practical Case: How Zhongshen Helps Enterprises Avoid Risks

In March 2026,Mr.Yu’s Nanchang trading company imported 12 tons of Musang King durian from Malaysia,with a cargo value of about RMB 1.8 million.Before goods shipment,on the phytosanitary certificate provided by the foreign supplier,the "variety name" was filled as "durian" instead of "Durio zibethinus" (the scientific name of Musang King) required by Nanchang Customs.After Zhongshen’s document pre-review team found the problem,they immediately contacted the Malaysian supplier to modify the certificate,and guided the supplier to supplement the "variety identification report".After goods arrival,Nanchang Customs raised no objection during inspection,and completed customs clearance in only 3 days.Previously,when Mr.Yu cooperated with another agency,wrong variety name led to 7 days of customs clearance delay,and about 20% of the durian was lost.

Mr.Yu mentioned: "When I handled customs declaration by myself before,I was often stuck because of these detailed problems.After cooperating with Zhongshen,they list all possible problems in advance and help us solve them one by one.Now customs clearance time is stably 3-4 days,and the cost has also been reduced a lot."

## Conclusion: Value of Professional Agency for Nanchang Import Enterprises

In 2026,the competition of Nanchang’s import trade has shifted from "scale" to "efficiency and compliance".A professional import customs declaration agency can help enterprises solve three core problems: first,avoid return shipment risk caused by document errors; second,improve port customs clearance efficiency (Zhongshen’s average customs clearance time is 40% faster than the industry average); third,reduce the probability of unqualified inspection (Zhongshen’s commodity inspection passing rate reaches 98%).For Nanchang import enterprises,choosing an agency familiar with local port rules and with fresh product import experience is the key to reducing costs and improving competitiveness.
