We received a strange request today from Hong Kong supposedly initiated from Customs.
We were asked to provide CCC supporting documents for about a dozen cooling fans used in some of our instruments (laboratory equipment). I knew CCC is required on household electrical fans but not small internal cooling fans. The list of fans is a mixture of 230Vac fans and 24Vdc fans. Some of these fans were used in products that went obsolete 10 years ago or longer. We may still ship them as repair replacement parts, but I thought service parts were exempt. Is this a new requirement or do you think there is some kind of confusion going on?
