Sending laptops from China to Taiwan: Check the lithium battery, wireless function and inspection first

Last verification update:

Laptops can be sent to Taiwan from the Shenzhen warehouse in China for evaluation first, but you must first confirm that the battery is installed in the device, the capacity and condition are normal, and check the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth and other RF modules, power supply, complete 11 code CCC, NCC, BSMI and input regulations. Generally, the reference number of notebook computers is listed as 8471.30.00.00-8; if the battery is swollen, damaged, recalled or the specifications are unknown, it should not be placed in the warehouse.

  • Laptop serial number: General laptop reference that meets the official text definition 8471.30.00.00-8, 2026 year 9 month 16 day data shows column 1 tariff 0%, input requirements C02; 0% does not mean exemption from business tax or visa review.
  • NCC Self-use program: Eligible low-power radio frequency equipment, not more than 2 by non-self-carrying methods such as mail, and no more than 10 by the same person in one year, can be cut according to regulations; still limited to 18 years old, personal use, and may not be transferred or commercially used.
  • Battery capacity: Wh=V×Ah; the actual indication must be used, and the series average cannot be used. If the price is lower than 100Wh, it cannot be separately shipped or must be collected by EMS. It still depends on the battery status, equipment interior, packaging and shipping procedures.
  • Duty-paid value: The principle is based on CIF, that is, the price of goods, freight and insurance.
  • Import business tax: The tax base is based on the duty-paid price plus customs duties and other taxes that should be included in accordance with the law, and then multiplied by 5%.
  • MW0: does not mean that they cannot be sent. Chapter 25–97 If mainland industrial products comply with the small quantity certificate exemption announcement, the entire declaration CIF must be within NT$32,000, and the individual items must be within 24 per piece; those that cannot be piece counted must be within 40 kg, but NCC, BSMI, import regulations and carrier restrictions must still be checked item by item.
