The common types of re-export trade of Chinese-made products are as follows. Firstly, there is traditional re-export trade. Goods are exported from China to a transit country, and after simple processing such as sorting, packing, etc., they are then transshipped to the final destination country. For example, Chinese clothing is exported to Singapore and then shipped to the United States after being repacked in Singapore.
Secondly, there is re-export re-export trade. Commodities enter special areas such as bonded areas in the transit country from China, without substantial processing, and are directly re-exported to other countries. For example, Chinese electronic products enter the Hong Kong bonded area and are then transshipped to Europe.
There is also re-export trade in the form of triangular trade. Chinese suppliers sell goods to traders in the transit country, and the traders then resell them to customers in the final destination country. The goods may be directly shipped from China to the destination country, but document processing, etc. are completed through the transit country. This form of trade is more commonly used when dealing with anti-dumping and other situations.
