Importing electronics from China can be an affordable way to acquire materials for use in manufacturing or products to sell. Technical quality and reduced manufacturing costs are two of the main reasons why companies decide to start buying from the Asian giant.
Electronics is one of the most complex sectors for importers, especially when they do not have technical knowledge. Therefore, it is important to rely on reliable suppliers and to be advised by companies such as MingTa to obtain great benefits.
Electronic products can be transported both by air and by sea. Depending on the characteristics of your product, the location of the supplier’s factory and the market needs, it will be more appropriate for you to choose one or the other.
It should be noted that air transport is very fast, but not very cost-efficient. It is advisable only for low-volume goods with high profit margins. On the other hand, sea transport is more suitable when importing a considerable volume and weight of goods, but it is slower. From MingTa we always recommend to start the import campaign from China 3 months in advance.
The main airports and ports used to transport electronic products imported from China are Hong Kong and Shenzhen. Shenzhen, a city in Guangdong province, is where most of China’s electronic products are manufactured.
All electronic products imported from China must have the corresponding technical certification. The most common certificates required for electronic products are UL, FCC, CE, A-Tick C-Tick, and are country-dependent. Any electronic product carrying battery and imported from China will have to comply with MSDS certification, the Material Safety Data Sheets.
At MingTa we know that finding the right supplier, ensuring their professionalism and communicating with them is an impossible task to accomplish without being present in China. For this reason, with our offices in the country, we offer you a complete supplier search service with the best guarantees.
We make every effort to learn as much as possible about the product you wish to purchase to ensure that the selected supplier meets all your requirements. We analyze the supply of your product in China, where the most reliable suppliers are located and how to access them.
We search and find the suppliers that best suit your requirements and contact them. If necessary, we travel to the factories to ensure their existence and avoid fraud on the part of the supplier. We make an initial price inquiry based on the expected purchase quantities and prepare a quotation. And finally, we send you a report with the results and conclusions of the operation, as well as the budgets generated.
