China export filing: used machinery and the export control and customs declaration
Used machines entering China export filing need age, hours and conformity documents aligned.

Key points
- Used machinery entering China export filing is checked on age, hours and safety devices alongside conformity documents, and declarations must match the nameplate.
- An October 2026 MOFCOM and GACC notice brought certain tunnel boring machines and walking excavators under export control; confirm scope with the notice and customs classification.
- This compiles public rules for pre-shipment checks; applicable categories, inspection bodies and documents are confirmed by the destination authority and the importer.
