Inquire

Dear Customers and Business Partners,

In order to strictly comply with national export control laws and regulations, and to fulfill international obligations, ensuring that our exported CNC milling machines and CNC lathes are fully legal and compliant, we hereby notify you of the relevant policies concerning dual-use items and the requirements for applying for a dual-use license. Please be aware and cooperate accordingly.



I. Background on Controls: CNC Milling Machines and CNC Lathes as Dual-Use Items

According to the Export Control Law of the People's Republic of China and the Dual-Use Items Export Control List, CNC milling machines and CNC lathes are classified as dual-use items due to their high-precision machining capabilities and are subject to strict government control. In particular, a dual-use export license (hereinafter referred to as the “dual-use license”) must be obtained in the following cases:



The machine’s positioning accuracy reaches or exceeds 0.006mm (6 microns); or the machine is a CNC milling machine with five axis simultaneous contouring capability (like,a five axis CNC milling machine).


If products involving the above technical parameters are exported without obtaining a dual-use license, they will not be cleared by customs and may result in administrative penalties.



II. Documentation Required for Accuracy Reaching 0.006mm.

When the CNC milling machine or CNC lathe you purchase has an accuracy of 0.006mm or higher (including five axis machine), in order to successfully apply for a dual-use license, you must provide the following three core documents truthfully and completely:



1.Introduction of Importer and End-User

Including the company background, main business activities, contact information, and address of the buyer (importer) and the final end-user.



2.Statement of End-Use

A detailed description of the specific purpose of the equipment, application scenarios, types of products to be processed, or R&D projects.



3.Letter of Commitment

Signed by the end-user, explicitly promising that the goods will not be resold to any third party, and that the equipment will not be used for any military purposes or to support military activities.



The above documents will be mandatory for our submission of the dual-use license application to the competent authorities. The truthfulness and completeness of the documents directly affect the review efficiency and approval rate.



III. Important Notes

If the equipment accuracy is below 0.006mm and it is not a 5 axis CNC milling machine, no dual-use license is required for the time being, but normal export declaration requirements still apply.

For CNC milling machines / CNC latheswith accuracy reaching 0.006mm, or any 5 axis machine, please contact us immediately after signing the contract and provide the above documents to avoid shipment delays.

All customer information will be kept strictly confidential and used only for export license applications.

Failure to provide the required documents on time, or provision of false information, which leads to dual-use license application failure, customs detention, legal liability, etc., shall be borne solely by the customer.
