Illegal Pshipment In Europe And America Directly Affects China'S Textile And Footwear Industry

In view of the gradual growth of China's export trade, many European and American countries have adopted more and more relevant measures to combat export trade.

The European Union has recently said that the situation of Chinese exporters' trade in goods through third countries is rising again. The European Union is investigating whether China's footwear products are sent to Malaysia and then pported to Europe. Meanwhile, EU customs officials say they have begun to monitor the global trade flow and find clues.

Therefore, domestic export enterprises must regulate their own trade practices.

Entrepot trade refers to the trade in import and export goods in international trade, not between producers and consumers, but through third countries.

Such trade is a pit trade for a pit country.

The goods can be pported to the third country by the exporting country. In the third country, no processing is done (changing packaging, classification, selection, collation and so on), and then sold to the consuming countries. It can also be sold directly to the consuming countries from the country of production without the third country, but there is no paction relationship between the producer countries and the consuming countries, but the pfer countries are dealing with the producers and consumers respectively.

The quota shortage is mainly manifested in textile and apparel enterprises. According to the relevant agreements between China and the European Union and the United States, since January 2006, China has to carry out the quantity management of the 10 categories of textiles exported to the EU and 21 categories of textiles exported to the United States, and the enterprises have obtained export quotas through performance allocation and public bidding.

Some enterprises that did not get quotas took the risk of trying to consolidate the European and American markets through illegal pshipment. Macao, Hongkong and some Asian countries became the hottest "springboards" for illegal re exports.

According to statistics, while the clothing export to Europe and the United States has dropped significantly, China's exports to Korea, Macao and Philippines have seen rapid growth.

The United States and the European Union have introduced more and more quota restrictions and punitive tariffs to combat so-called "dumping" behavior of Chinese goods, but these measures have encouraged the practice of pshipment.

At present, China's exporters' pshipment of goods through third countries after the accession to the WTO has decreased, and there has been another trend of growth.

European and American countries have signed bilateral agreements with major third countries to prevent exports.

The US and Philippine governments signed an agreement to jointly eliminate illegal re export trade in textiles and clothing, especially for Chinese companies to borrow from Philippines to export to the United States. Recently, Indonesia and the United States signed a memorandum of understanding to prevent illegal pshipment of textiles from Indonesia to the United States, in order to prevent Chinese textile enterprises from exporting illegal textile products to the United States by means of the origin certificate of Indonesia.

With the implementation of the related measures in European and American countries, the export trade of our export enterprises will become more and more difficult and the profit space will be smaller and smaller.

The export countries of China's textile and clothing products are mainly European and American countries, and often become targets of anti-dumping investigations by European and American countries.

With the development of EU's re export trade, the development of these industries has been greatly restricted.

According to the provisions on the handling of illegal re export activities in the memorandum of understanding between China, the United States and China, after the two sides have verified and negotiated, once the illegal pshipment is confirmed, the total amount of the national agreement will be deducted in the same year or next year, which means that an enterprise's violation will directly affect the whole industry.
