III.Risk Prevention and Control Suggestions
| Stage | Key operations | Time Limit | Define the boundary of agency responsibilities |

| Conduct pre - shipment inspection (China Certification & Inspection Group) | Issue a clean bill of lading Record the container seal number for the record | 30 - 45 days (European route) | Customs Clearance and Acceptance |
| Declare HS code 84186190 (Cooling capacity > 4,000 kcal/hour) | Handle the approval of the duty - free form (Applicable to scientific and educational tax exemption) Key points of customs inspection: Consistency of energy efficiency labels | 5 - 7 working days | Establish a local spare parts warehouse (Reserve ≥ 10% of vulnerable parts) |
| After - sales follow - up | Coordinate the entry of foreign engineers (Apply for a Z - visa) The release of the quality guarantee deposit requires a full - load operation test | 12 months | Agent Selection |

Note: For special users such as universities,the "Tax-Free Equipment Lifecycle Management System" can be activated to automatically track the customs supervision period (typically 5 years).For industrial-use large air coolers (refrigeration capacity > 200kW),an additional "Import License for Key Used Mechanical and Electrical Products" is required.
