Importing machinery from China to Egypt: HS chapters, Egyptian rules and where they are made

Injection moulding, extrusion, laser cutting and packing machines, pumps and valves are mostly in chapter 84. Industrial equipment is usually not on the Decree 43 list, but technical requirements still apply.

HS chapters involved

• Chapter 84 · Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery and mechanical appliances
• Chapter 85 · Electrical machinery and equipment; sound and TV equipment

Egyptian rules that may apply

• Egyptian standards (EOS): The Egyptian Organization for Standardization and Quality (EOS) issues Egyptian standards. Imported goods are generally checked against the applicable standard and inspected at the border by GOEIC, so tell the factory which standard applies and check that its test reports cover it.
