China’s Administration of Quality Supervision Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) has announced a two-month extension of its shipping deadline for unregistered suppliers, according to an alert posted by the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries Inc. (ISRI), Washington.
An announcement from the Chinese agency, known as AQSIQ Bulletin 159 and dated Oct. 26, moves the deadline for quarantine authorities to accept shipment inspection applications from unregistered scrap suppliers from Nov. 1 back to Jan. 1, 2005.
The deadline, which has now been pushed back more than once, sets the date at which scrap shipment inspection requests from unregistered suppliers will no longer be accepted.
