On March 16, 2020, the General Administration of Customs issued an announcement ([2020] No.40) to extend the period of temporarily inbound and outbound goods affected by the epidemic.
In order to support enterprises in coping with the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, for temporarily inbound and outbound goods that have been postponed for 3 times and cannot be re-transported on schedule due to the epidemic, the customs in charge can handle the extension formalities for no more than six months based on the materials of the temporary inbound and outbound goods consignor and ATA carnet holder.
Temporarily inbound and outbound goods consignors and ATA carnet holders can apply for extension through the "internet + Customs" integrated online service platform.
