International Forum onChina Trade ComplianceWednesday, February 15, 2006
AboutCan your company afford border delays and being the target of an enforcement action in China?As U.S. exports to China continue to increase, U.S. companies willing to succeed in the People's Republic of China face unique and complex tax and customs regulations. The PRC is extending trading and distribution rights to foreign companies and now allows the establishment of a Foreign Invested Commercial Enterprise (FICE) that permits foreign companies to import and distribute goods to customers throughout China. U.S. companies have a greater opportunity than ever before to enter the marketplace in China but must be able successfully navigate the Chinese regulatory environment associated with importing into or exporting from mainland China to make sure their customs operations are compliant. Keeping track of recent changes in China's customs laws is complex and local administrative bodies and regional customs offices have a lot of leeway interpreting the law. Civil and criminal penalties are rising, cases are high profile and yesterday's knowledge is simply not enough to make the right decisions today. At home, the political pressure to toughen the enforcement of U.S. export controls for transactions to China has never been greater than under the current Administration. The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) is preparing a regulation that could impose broad controls on exports to China. The expected rules could require exporters of goods that wouldn't normally require a license to apply for a license, and many products, softwares and technologies could become subject to the proposed expanded export controls on China. How should your company prepare for this new "catch-all" regulation?
