Customer background: An electronics company in Dongguan, mainly exporting Bluetooth headsets to North America, suffered from the impact of 20% tariff imposed by the United States on China, and lost 60% of its orders.
Core pain points:
Domestic production of tariff-sensitive components (plastic casing, wire) results in a combined tax rate of 20%
The North American customer requires a "non-Chinese origin" certificate to be submitted within 72 hours, otherwise the cooperation will be terminated
Solution:
1. Capacity dismantling:
Domestic retention of high value-added links: chip packaging, circuit design (Foshan Lishui warehouse cargo)
Tariff-sensitive parts Transfer Vietnam: plastic shell injection molding, wire assembly (Hai Phong Industrial Zone labeling)
2. Logistics link:
Domestic semi-finished products through the China-Vietnam land transport line 3 days direct to Vietnam
The finished products are shipped directly to Los Angeles by chartered ship from Haiphong Port, avoiding the docking fee of Chinese ships, and the shipping cost is reduced by 18%
3. Compliance escort:
Vietnam factory site inspection + production process audit, obtain compliance certificate of origin
Cooperation with Vietnam Customs AEO certification, 48 hours fast customs clearance
Results quantification:
The tariff rate was reduced from 20% to 4%, saving $5.2 million in annual tariff expenditure
Logistics costs fell 22 percent, and North American orders rebounded 85 percent
Simultaneous development of the Southeast Asian local market (Lazada Malay station monthly sales exceeded 10,000)
