2、 Customs clearance documents for shipping car fans from Shenzhen to Germany: E1 symbol is "customs clearance password"

Car fans must hold an ECE R10 certificate and have the non removable E1 logo engraved on the product (E1=German certification). Attention: The 7th series of amendments for R10 will come into effect from June 2025, with the testing frequency extended to 6GHz, and the new and old versions will run parallel until August 2029. Our company can coordinate with authorized institutions to assist in certification.

1. Key authentication points:

-Testing: Broadband/narrowband radiation, anti-interference, transient conduction, simulated waveform (5 items)

-Cycle: 2-6 months (2-3 months for simple products)

-Pre qualification: IATF 16949 (if factory audit is not required, the cycle will be extended)

-Materials: System certificate, PCB diagram, BOM list, 2 samples

-Production consistency: must pass annual audit

2. Basic documents (pre approved by our company):

-Commercial invoice (German/English, 10 digit HS code, CIF price, EORI number of both parties, product name written as "Automotive Cooling Fan")

-Packing list (details of each box, separate columns for different models)

-Certificate of Origin, Original Bill of Lading, EORI Number (starting with DE, if not available, our company will clear it on behalf of you)

3. Customs clearance process (Hamburg cooperative agency):

1. Complete the ICS2 declaration 24 hours before departure, accurately match the HS with the product name, and prohibit vague words such as "accessories".

2. Electronic customs declaration, customs online verification of E1 mark authenticity and CoP documents.

3. Payment of customs duties, deferred value-added tax (PVA) or payment on behalf of others, with complete documents released on the same day (2-3 days for random inspection).

3、 Shipping packaging requirements for car fans from Shenzhen to Germany: rust and moisture prevention, four layers of protection

Germany implements strict IPPC quarantine for wooden packaging, and from 2026 onwards, the EPR packaging law mandates LUCID registration. Four layer standard for sea freight:

|Inner layer | Pearl cotton wraps tightly around the body and fan blades, and the motor shaft is coated with anti rust oil; Electronic control unit with anti-static bag; Fill the gap with foam and shake<1cm|

|Middle layer | Place desiccants diagonally inside the box (≥ 100g per box), and cover metal parts with VCI rust proof bags; Make ventilation holes on the side panel of the cardboard box.  |

|Outer layer | Five layer double anti corrugated box (compressive strength ≥ 200kg), sealed with "H" letters, tape width ≥ 5cm; labeled with "Fragile", "Upward", and "Keep Dry" in both Chinese and English.  |

|Wooden packaging | Solid wood pallets must undergo heat treatment/fumigation, with clear IPPC markings (CN-XXX-XXX) applied, and a fumigation certificate is also required. Double reinforcement of the whole cabinet with wrapping film and bundling tape, take a video for reference.  |

Must do: label "Made in China" on the outer box and products; EPR packaging method: All products imported to Germany must be registered in the LUCID system and pay an annual recycling fee, which our company can handle on behalf of.

4、 Five "Avoiding Pits" Reminders for Shipping Car Fans to the German Market

1. E1 mark cannot be replaced: CE certificate is invalid on car fans and must be ECE R10 certification+E1 mark. Suggest starting 6 months in advance.

2. VAT deferral is conditional: Germany allows the import of Value Added Tax deferral (PVA), but requires a bank guarantee letter, and from 2026 onwards, the goods must have a sales record within 30 days, otherwise a tax warning will be triggered. The deferred threshold is higher than that of the Netherlands, and without guarantee, only actual payment can be made. Our company can assist in evaluating the feasibility of deferred payment.

3. ICS2 LCL bill of lading system: When LCL is mixed with different buyers/product names, each customer must be assigned a separate bill of lading, listing the HS code and piece weight one by one. Fines of 500-5000 euros for data errors and omissions.

4. EORI number starting with DE: Customs clearance must use the EORI number issued by German customs (format DE+digits). Non EU companies also need to designate an EU authorized representative (EC Rep). Our company can help find local suppliers.

5. Peak season and land transportation: During the peak shipment period from June to September, book shipping 4 weeks in advance; Hamburg Port operates year-round, with land transportation to the Ruhr area taking about 2-4 hours and to Munich taking about 6 hours.
