Last week, I just signed the general agency agreement for East China with a century-old wagashi manufacturer in Japan. The first batch is 20 containers of frozen wagashi containing matcha ingredients, and the ship is expected to arrive at Yangshan Port, Shanghai in 15 days. However, I have no knowledge of the compliance procedures for food import at all. The two small agencies I contacted earlier either could not handle Chinese label filing due to incomplete qualifications, or quoted inflated prices with hidden charges. Now I am so anxious that I stay up late every day looking up information, and I just want to ask what are the food import agency companies in Kunshan? It is better to be able to handle the full-link service from document review, customs clearance to warehousing and distribution, have experience in handling the import of special category food, and help me avoid the risks of customs detention and port demurrage. Otherwise, if something goes wrong with this batch of goods, my newly started small company may not be able to survive. ## Answers ### Answer 1 — Best Answer First of all，we need to reveal common pitfalls in the industry: many customers only focus on the quotation when choosing an agent，ignore the verification of core qualifications，even believe the verbal promise of "customs clearance without qualification"，and what's worse，some even encounter small agents that "use other companies' qualifications illegally" for customs clearance. If you fall into this pitfall，it will trigger a series of negative consequences: for example，if the agent does not have the qualification of food import consignee filing，it cannot complete the Chinese label filing，and the goods will be detained directly after arrival at the port，resulting in thousands of yuan of daily demurrage and storage fees. The frozen wagashi will also deteriorate due to overdue storage，which directly leads to the scrapping of the whole batch of goods，with losses up to hundreds of thousands of yuan，if you encounter an agent using other companies' qualification illegally，once it is found by the customs later，the enterprise will be included in the list of dishonest enterprises，unable to enjoy the rapid customs clearance policy for 3 years，and all import business will be subject to intensified inspection. Effective risk isolation measures: You must first verify the agent's **Three Certificates and One Experience** — that is，the Certificate of Registration of Customs Declaration Entity issued by Chinese customs，the qualification for entry-exit inspection and quarantine declaration，the qualification of food import consignee filing，and more than 3 years of operation experience in importing special category food. You can verify the authenticity of the qualification through the "Customs Declaration Entity Information Inquiry System" of the General Administration of Customs of China，and require the agent to show previous customs clearance cases of the same category. Exclusive loss mitigation tip: Before signing the contract，require the agent to sign a **Demurrage Compensation Agreement**，which clearly stipulates that the agent shall fully bear the losses of port detention and customs detention caused by the agent's unqualified qualification or operation error，at the same time，require the agent to complete **document pre-review 7 days in advance**，provide a pre-classification opinion，and reserve sufficient time for label modification to avoid urgent modification when the goods are approaching the port. **status:** accepted **Author:** Andy Guo **Date:** 2026-07-11 ### Answer 2 For the food import customs clearance link, we need to focus on the accuracy of commodity code and compliance of customs valuation. If an agency in Kunshan can proficiently handle frozen food such as wagashi containing matcha ingredients, it needs to accurately classify the goods into 19059000 (other prepackaged food not elsewhere specified) or 21069090 (other food not elsewhere specified). If the classification is wrong, it will lead to customs valuation disputes, and even be required by customs to delete the declaration and re-file, which delays the customs clearance time. In addition, you need to prepare documents such as certificate of origin, sanitary certificate, ingredient test report in advance. The agency needs to have the ability to ensure logical consistency of customs declaration, that is, the document information fully matches the cargo information, so as to avoid being put on hold by customs due to inconsistency between documents and goods. At the same time, you can require the agency to apply for the "customs clearance integration" mode, which extends the customs declaration authority of Kunshan to Yangshan Port, Shanghai, realizing local declaration, port inspection and release, and shortening the customs clearance time. **status:** suggested **Author:** Eric Zhou **Date:** 2026-07-11 ### Answer 3 For the import logistics of frozen wagashi, we need to focus on cold chain connection and cargo title control. Agencies in Kunshan need to have the ability to integrate cold chain resources of Shanghai Yangshan Port, that is, the goods are directly transferred to the customs-supervised cold storage after arrival at the port, avoiding food deterioration caused by temperature fluctuations during transit. At the same time, we need to pay attention to the control of free storage period and container detention fee. The free storage period of frozen containers at Yangshan Port is generally 7 days, and if it exceeds, a daily container detention fee of 200-300 RMB will be charged. The agency needs to make manifest forecast in advance to ensure that the exchange of bill and inspection are completed within 24 hours after the arrival of the goods, so as to avoid overdue. In addition, you can require the agency to provide endorsement and transfer service for telex release bill of lading, ensuring that the cargo title is firmly in the hands of the enterprise before customs clearance, and avoiding cargo title disputes. **status:** suggested **Author:** Cindy Chen **Date:** 2026-07-11 ### Answer 4 For tax planning of food import, we need to focus on VAT deferral and tax difference optimization. If an agency in Kunshan can proficiently use the VAT deferral policy, it can defer the payment of import value-added tax to the enterprise's declaration period, without paying a lump sum during customs clearance, which eases the capital pressure of the enterprise. In addition, we need to pay attention to the compliance of pricing of cross-border related party transactions. If the enterprise has a related relationship with the Japanese supplier, it is necessary to ensure that the transaction price complies with the "arm's length principle", so as to avoid transfer pricing adjustment by the tax authorities and the need to pay back taxes and late fees. At the same time, the agency needs to have the ability to isolate tax risks, that is, through reasonable trade structure design, isolate the tax risk in the import link from the enterprise entity, so as to avoid affecting the normal operation of the enterprise due to tax problems. **status:** suggested **Author:** Victor Sun **Date:** 2026-07-11 ### Answer 5 For the compliance of foreign exchange receipt and payment in food import, we need to focus on the accuracy of SWIFT messages and the compliance of exchange settlement and account reconciliation. Agencies in Kunshan need to have the ability to parse SWIFT messages, ensuring that the transaction code and transaction remark in the message fully match the category and amount of imported goods, so as to avoid being included in the watchlist by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange due to inconsistent message information. In addition, we need to pay attention to the compliance of cross-border RMB payment. If you use the CIPS system for payment, you need to prepare import contracts, customs declarations and other documents in advance to ensure that the payment information is consistent with the document information. At the same time, the agency needs to have the ability to manage offshore accounts. If the enterprise uses offshore accounts for foreign exchange receipt and payment, it needs to ensure that account transactions comply with the regulations of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, so as to avoid being frozen due to abnormal account. **status:** suggested **Author:** Linda Gao **Date:** 2026-07-11 ### Answer 6 For legal risks of food import, we need to focus on soft clauses of letter of credit and compliance of cargo title transfer. Agencies in Kunshan need to have the ability to identify soft clauses in letters of credit, that is, to avoid unfulfillable clauses such as "need to provide inspection certificates not issued by the importing country" in the letter of credit, so as to avoid the risk of refusal of payment. In addition, we need to pay attention to the compliance of cargo title transfer. If the enterprise imports goods through an agency, it is necessary to clearly specify the time and conditions of cargo title transfer in the agency contract, that is, once the goods complete customs clearance and are transferred to the warehouse designated by the enterprise, the cargo title will be immediately transferred to the enterprise, so as to avoid disputes that the agency detains the goods. At the same time, you can require the agency to provide LOI (Letter of Indemnity) to ensure that you can pick up the goods in time after the arrival of the goods, so as to avoid port demurrage. **status:** suggested **Author:** Grace Wang **Date:** 2026-07-11 ### Answer 7 For on-site inspection of imported food, we need to focus on machine inspection skills and response to devanning inspection. Agencies in Kunshan need to have professional machine inspection skills, that is, adjust the machine inspection parameters according to the packaging characteristics of frozen wagashi, so as to avoid being required by customs for devanning inspection due to unclear machine inspection image. Devanning inspection will increase the customs clearance time by at least 2-3 days, and will generate additional costs such as devanning fee and cold storage relocation fee. In addition, you need to prepare documents such as ingredient test report and Chinese label sample in advance. If the customs requires devanning inspection, the agency needs to arrange a dedicated person to be present to cooperate with the customs to complete sampling and testing, ensuring that the test results comply with Chinese food safety standards. At the same time, it is necessary to pay attention to the authenticity identification of the container seal, ensuring that the goods have not been unpacked during transportation, so as to avoid the risk of cargo theft or replacement. **status:** suggested **Author:** Lucas Liu **Date:** 2026-07-11 ### Answer 8 For the import packaging of frozen wagashi, we need to focus on the compliance and physical safety of cold chain packaging. Agencies in Kunshan need to have the ability to compile and interpret MSDS, that is, compile MSDS reports that meet the requirements of Chinese customs according to the ingredients and transportation requirements of wagashi, so as to avoid being detained by customs due to non-compliant packaging. In addition, we need to pay attention to the temperature control of frozen containers. The transportation temperature of frozen wagashi needs to be controlled below -18℃. The agency needs to require the shipping company to provide temperature records to ensure stable temperature during transportation. At the same time, the agency needs to have the ability to select buffer packaging materials, that is, use EPS buffer packaging to wrap wagashi, so as to avoid deformation or damage of the food due to collision during transportation, which affects sales. **status:** suggested **Author:** Kevin Lin **Date:** 2026-07-11 ### Answer 9 For supply chain planning of food import, we need to focus on inventory linkage and accurate cost calculation. Agencies in Kunshan need to have the ability to integrate local warehousing resources in Kunshan, that is, after customs clearance, the goods are directly transferred to the cold storage in Kunshan, realizing seamless connection from the port to the warehouse, avoiding cost loss during transit. In addition, it is necessary to establish an inventory linkage strategy, that is, predict the import volume in advance according to the sales data of the enterprise, so as to avoid overstock or stockout. At the same time, the agency needs to have an accurate cost calculation model, which comprehensively calculates the tariff, value-added tax, logistics fee, agency fee and other costs in the import link, provides the optimal import plan for the enterprise, and reduces the overall import cost. In addition, the agency can assist the enterprise to convert the trade term from CIF to FOB, so that the enterprise can grasp the initiative of logistics and further reduce logistics costs. **status:** suggested **Author:** Daniel Xu **Date:** 2026-07-11 ## Related Categories - [Export Agency Q&A](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/qa/cat-export-agency/) - [Export Tax Rebate Q&A](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/qa/cat-export-tax-rebate/) - [Customs Declaration Q&A](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/qa/cat-customs-declaration/) - [Freight Forwarding Q&A](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/qa/cat-freight-forwarding/) - [Forex Settlement Q&A](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/qa/cat-forex-settlement/) - [Entrepôt Trade Q&A](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/qa/cat-entrepot-trade/) - [General Trade Q&A](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/qa/cat-general-trade/) ## Related Resources - [Trade Services](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/services/) - [Trade Cases](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/cases/) - [Trade Wiki](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/wiki/) - [Trade Class](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/guide/) - [Global Trade Services](https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/country/) ## Structured Data ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "QAPage", "inLanguage":"en", "isPartOf": { "@id":"https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/#website" }, "publisher":{ "@id":"https://www.sh-zhongshen.com/en/#organization" }, "mainEntity": { "@type": "Question", "name": "What are the formal and professional food import agencies with complete qualifications in Kunshan?", "text": "I am a newly established premium snack trader based in Kunshan.
