We are navigating shifting shipping regulations in China and working to get expected shipping schedules out to customers. Thank you for your patience.
China customs published a new announcement (No.53/2020) today that states all of the following medical goods have to meet national quality standards, for which additional export clearance paper wok are required and customs will impose 100% inspection on masks and other PPE items. We’re confident our trusted vendors meet these quality standards and have shipments that have already been cleared under the new policy.
