A Study on Characteristics of Import-export Management System in China

This article focuses on characteristics of Import-export management system and foreign trade policy in China and the presentation of our defense measures against these policies. China’s foreign trade management systems include a pre-permission system of trade items, a quota system which limits the quantity of trade items and foreign investment regulation, foreign exchange control of regular trade, customs proceeds and duties. From the position of our country we need to consider implementing possible counter measures to those of China. Many Korean companies have opened businesses in China for simple trade or the assembling of parts. China’s customs clearance, however, is very complicated and to clear customs is very time consuming. Customs duties are also higher than in Korea on electronic and other general goods. Therefore this duty must be decreased and custom clearance simplified to enhance trade between the two countries. Korean companies must try to expand investment to other regions in China and not only focus on the eastern coast but also on central or west inland areas. The companies must further change from a simple process trade system of using “cheap labor”, to the sale of high-valued items such as electronic goods or semi-conductors.
