Professional agency companies usually establisha country - specific access databaseand update the differences in certification requirements of various countries in real - time:

• For NMPA registration in China, a biological evaluation report needs to be submitted

• For CE certification in the European Union, technical documents (Technical File) must be equipped

The four key stages of the customs clearance process

When a top - three - level hospital purchased a 1.5T magnetic resonance equipment from Germany in 2025, due to the lack of pre - classification pre - confirmation, the customs clearance was delayed by 27 days. The standard operation process of professional agents includes:

• Pre - review stage
  • Check the consistency between the medical device registration certificate and the customs declaration purpose

• Declaration phase
  • Simultaneously declare the sanitary quarantine approval form for special items
  • It is recommended to verify through the following methods:Ensure the match with the price declaration document

Risk - hedging design of the logistics plan

The transportation of precision medical equipment needs to be constructedThree - dimensional protection system: The plan designed by an agency company for the transportation of linear accelerators shows that the cost of combined sea, land and air transportation is 42% lower than that of pure... and the cargo damage rate is controlled below 0.3%:Air TransportationConstant - temperature transportation: Maintain a temperature control of 22±2℃ throughout the journey

• Shock - proof packaging: Adopt a three - level buffer system
• Real - time monitoring: Transmit positioning data every 30 minutes
• Three golden section points of cost control

Full - cost model
