Scrap Parts

Scrap Parts refer to components or finished products that, in international trade, are deemed unrepairable and without use value due to product repair, return, or quality issues, and must be scrapped. They are commonly seen in after-sales repair, return for repair, bonded repair, and other scenarios. Unlike 'Repair Parts', which can be restored to function after repair and re-exported or resold, scrap parts are usually abandoned for repair and directly destroyed, dismantled, or disposed of as waste. Notes: 1) Trade terms (e.g., EXW, FOB) and responsibility allocation must be clarified; 2) When scrap parts enter or leave the country, customs regulations on waste materials must be followed, and scrap certificates, destruction certificates, or waste declaration may be required; 3) If hazardous components are involved, environmental regulations must be met; 4) The difference from 'Defective Parts' is that defective parts are not necessarily scrapped and may be returned, exchanged, or repaired. In practice, enterprises should stipulate in contracts the handling method, cost bearing, and ownership transfer of scrap parts to avoid subsequent disputes.
