K사 위험물 폐기 Process
In this case, a freight forwarder was tasked with assisting a client who had imported approximately 40 drums of chemicals from China. However, they encountered regulatory issues when the Chinese exporter provided a false Bill of Materials (BOM) for the product.
This led to a six-month delay in providing a detailed ingredient list, ultimately resulting in the chemical product being ordered for disposal due to quality changes. The freight forwarder needed to navigate this complex situation, including applying for a tariff refund and managing the disposal process in compliance with Korean Customs regulations.
Introduction & outline
The key challenges faced by the freight forwarder were as follows:
False BOM: Dealing with inaccurate information provided by the Chinese exporter, which hindered regulatory compliance.
Regulatory Compliance: Ensuring that the client could meet the regulatory agency's requirement for a detailed ingredient list.
Quality Control: Managing and documenting the quality changes in the chemicals over the extended period.
Tariff Refund: Preparing and submitting the necessary documentation for a refund of the import tariff.
Disposal Procedure: Coordinating the disposal process in line with the relevant administrative order and Korean Customs regulations.
Challenges
Planning & Analysis
To address these challenges, the freight forwarder implemented the following solutions:
Verification and Communication: The freight forwarder verified the issue with the client and established clear communication with the Chinese exporter to rectify the false BOM.
Regulatory Compliance: They worked closely with regulatory experts to compile an accurate ingredient list that met the agency's requirements.
Quality Control: Collaborated with the client to assess and document the quality changes in the chemicals during the extended delay.
Tariff Refund Application: Prepared and submitted all necessary documents to apply for a refund of the import tariff.
