## Zhongshan Import Customs Clearance Agency Companies Focus on Pain Points of Southeast Asian Agricultural Product Imports

In 2026,as an important trade hub connecting the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area with Southeast Asia,Zhongshan’s agricultural product import volume increased by 18% year-on-year,of which tropical fruits such as Thai Monthong durian and Malaysian Musang King durian account for more than 40%.However,recent data from Zhongshan Customs shows that 12 batches of imported tropical fruits were detained in March due to inconsistent documents and incorrect quarantine parameters,of which 6 batches deteriorated due to port detention exceeding 72 hours,resulting in direct losses of more than 500,000 yuan.Many Zhongshan trading enterprises have realized that it is difficult for their in-house teams alone to cope with the updated import quarantine requirements in 2026,and the role of professional agency companies is becoming increasingly critical.

### Core Role of Zhongshen in Import of Southeast Asian Agricultural Products

Zhongshen has been deeply engaged in the foreign trade agency industry for more than 20 years.In response to the pain points of Zhongshan enterprises importing Southeast Asian tropical fruits,it has established a full-process service system of "pre-audit,port docking,and quarantine follow-up".Unlike ordinary agency companies that are only responsible for document submission,Zhongshen’s team can accurately identify the unique quarantine compliance requirements for products such as durian,and avoid risks in advance.For example,for the newly added "orchard traceability system verification" requirement in 2026,many enterprises were rejected by commodity inspection because they did not prepare GPS data in advance,while Zhongshen has established docking with 12 registered orchards in Thailand in advance,and can quickly obtain traceability information that meets the requirements.

## Disassembly of Core Process for Import of Southeast Asian Tropical Fruits

### I.Document Pre-audit Stage: Accurately Check Unique Compliance Requirements

The document requirements for durian import are much stricter than those for ordinary goods.In 2026,the General Administration of Customs of China updated the *Quarantine Management Measures for Imported Tropical Fruits*,adding a number of unique requirements.Zhongshen will focus on checking the following contents during the document pre-audit stage:

| Document Name | Unique Requirements for Durian Import (2026) | Zhongshen Assistance Key Points |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Phytosanitary Certificate | It is required to indicate the signature of the quarantine officer authorized by the Ministry of Agriculture of Thailand and the orchard registration number (which must be in the valid list of the General Administration of Customs) | Check the validity of the orchard number in advance,and verify the consistency between the signature and the authorization document |
| Cold Treatment Certificate | It is required to specify the cold treatment method (-1.5× 16 days / 5× 10 days),treatment equipment number,and start and end time | Check whether the treatment parameters comply with GB/T 19681-2025,and assist in supplementing the equipment calibration report |
| Orchard Traceability Data | It is required to provide orchard GPS coordinates,picking date,and batch number (new requirement added in 2026) | Connect with Thai suppliers to obtain data,and assist in sorting into a format recognized by the customs |
| Customs Declaration Form | Commodity code 0810909000,it is required to declare cold treatment information and traceability batch | Pre-enter the customs declaration form,connect with the green channel,and ensure release within 12 hours |

It should be noted that the orchard registration number of Thai durians is updated every six months.Some enterprises fail to update supplier information in time,resulting in invalid numbers on the certificates.Zhongshen will establish a supplier information database,update the list of valid orchards of the General Administration of Customs every month,and remind enterprises to replace non-compliant suppliers in advance.

### II.Port Customs Clearance Stage: Fast Release Guarantee for Perishable Goods

Durian is a perishable fresh good.If the port detention time exceeds 24 hours,the pulp may deteriorate and affect sales.The core actions of Zhongshen in the customs clearance stage include:

![2026 Zhongshan Import Customs Clearance Agency | Practical Compliance Key Points](https://cndpic.sh-zhongshen.com/uploads/tradepics/lSQYPIk6wngS9.webp)

- Pre-enter the customs declaration form in advance: Complete the pre-entry of the customs declaration form 3 days before the arrival of the goods,connect with the "Green Channel for Perishable Goods" of Zhongshan Port Customs,and ensure that the review time of the customs declaration form is shortened to within 6 hours
- On-site special personnel follow up: Arrange experienced customs brokers to be on duty at the port site,handle customs queries in real time,and avoid delays in release due to supplementary materials
- Warehouse connection: Connect with the cold chain warehouse of Zhongshan Port in advance,reserve a storage location that meets the requirements,and complete warehousing within 1 hour after the goods are released,ensuring that the temperature is controlled at 0-4

For example,Mr.Ren of a food trading company in Zhongshan imported 3 containers of Monthong durians in April 2026.When he declared customs by himself before,he was required to supplement materials by the customs because the cold treatment equipment number was not filled in the customs declaration form.The 48-hour port detention led to the deterioration of 10% of the durians.Later,he hired Zhongshen as the agent.Zhongshen checked the equipment number during pre-entry,the goods were released 8 hours after arrival,and the whole process of cold chain monitoring was carried out after warehousing.Finally,the loss rate of the goods was only 1%.

### III.Commodity Inspection and Quarantine Stage: Accurate Response to New Requirements Added in 2026

In 2026,the commodity inspection department added two new requirements for durian import quarantine: "on-site inspection of traceability information" and "rapid detection of pesticide residues".Zhongshen’s assistance points include:

First,during on-site inspection,the commodity inspection personnel will check the orchard registration number,picking batch and GPS coordinates on the durian packaging.Zhongshen will sort this information into electronic documents in advance,and cooperate with the commodity inspection personnel to scan the code for verification on site,so as to avoid prolonged inspection time due to unclear information.Second,the rapid detection of pesticide residues is required to be completed before the goods are released.Zhongshen will coordinate with the commodity inspection department to arrange the test first,and the results will be issued within 3 working days,while it usually takes 5-7 days for enterprises to apply for the test by themselves.

In addition,Zhongshen will also remind suppliers to complete pre-cooling treatment in advance for harmful organisms such as fruit flies that may be carried by durians,so as to avoid the destruction of goods due to excessive harmful organisms.For example,in May 2026,a batch of durians from a trading company in Zhongshan was detected with fruit fly larvae by commodity inspection because they were not pre-cooled,and the goods were destroyed.However,the same batch of goods represented by Zhongshen passed the quarantine smoothly because the supplier was required to do pre-cooling treatment in advance.

## Practical Case: How Zhongshen Helps Enterprises Avoid Million-Yuan Losses

In February 2026,Supervisor Zhang of a large trading company in Zhongshan contacted Zhongshen,saying that 2 containers of Monthong durians he imported from Thailand had arrived at the port,but the commodity inspection department required to supplement the "cold treatment equipment calibration report",otherwise the goods would be detained.Supervisor Zhang said that the previous supplier did not provide the report.If the goods were detained for more than 72 hours,they would face a loss of 1.5 million yuan.

Zhongshen’s team acted immediately: First,check the equipment number on the cold treatment certificate,contact the registered orchard in Thailand,and require the supplier to supplement the equipment calibration report (within the validity period); Second,connect with the Zhongshan commodity inspection department,explain that the cold treatment process of this batch of goods complies with the GB/T 19681-2025 standard,and apply for priority review of supplementary materials; Finally,coordinate with the cold chain warehouse to reserve a location to ensure that the goods are quickly put into storage after release.

36 hours later,the commodity inspection department approved the supplementary materials,and the goods were released smoothly.The whole port detention time was only 48 hours,and the loss rate of the goods was controlled within 2%,avoiding the million-yuan loss of Supervisor Zhang’s company.After the incident,Supervisor Zhang said that he had not realized the importance of the cold treatment equipment calibration report before,and Zhongshen’s advance pre-audit and rapid response were of great help.
