Export a boat from China

[an2reir]

I*m considering building a wood&epoxy sailboat in China.
I hear there may be a special permit (hard to get?)required to sail the boat out of Chinese waters and export when completed.
Anyone know about such regulations ?

I deal with china on manufacturing of our design parts where i work and they are the ones that get all of the export papers, permits and handle the shipping. I am sure they would handle that for you, They will require a deposit, which i have never had a problem after paying it. They will require a wire transfer to there bank, They use the prefomia invoice system. If you back out or change your mind after the deposit, it is real hard to get your money back.

Hi Barry thanks for your post,
the idea is I'm considering build a 32-36 ft sail cruiser strip planking and epoxy biaxial sheated ; maybe some location close to Canton, when completed sail her towards Japan , Australia, New Zealand.
I got some info the export of a boat may be handled differently, subject to more restrictive regulations...

As i know, that's impossible for you to sail the boat out of China. I am doing export in a China. i am happy to give you more info.

Hello thank for your post.
The idea is to build a wood&epoxy boat in China, then sail her towards south and east.
Yes I would be very happy to receive some further info, perhaps Singapore is more suitable as a building location then.
Cheers
