LED lights are in turmoil! According to the information released by the Trade Remedy Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Commerce, the USITC has launched a number of 337 investigations involving Chinese companies since February alone↓
Among all the investigations, LED landscape lighting equipment and its components caught the editor's attention mainly because LED lights caused quite a stir some time ago. At the end of February, a notice that " the U.S. FDA is now frantically detaining all lighting products imported from China " went viral on WeChat Moments. Some freight forwarders also reported that their lighting products were being inspected, and the news caused panic among sellers. According to a seller, a large area of LEDs were seized by US Customs because the HS CODE was deliberately confused by a freight forwarder... In addition, at the end of February, a number of LED night light products were recalled due to safety hazards such as electric shock, burns, and fire .
In summary, for sellers of LED lighting products, it is necessary to ensure the quality of the products and understand the intellectual property rights of the products before selling them. In addition, the certifications required should also be fully prepared. Sellers should also be vigilant. Cross-border sales are not easy, and the fewer problems there are, the better.
