The China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Mechanical and Electrical Products issued a statement saying that on August 5, 2026, the Ministry of Commerce issued a notice to launch a foreign trade security investigation on imported printing and copying office equipment. The China Electromechanical Chamber of Commerce pays close attention and strongly supports the Ministry of Commerce in initiating an investigation in accordance with the law, evaluating the impact of relevant imports on the security interests of our foreign trade countries, and introducing necessary measures as appropriate. The China Electromechanical Chamber of Commerce has noticed that the US Federal Communications Commission and the US Department of Homeland Security have recently introduced a series of negative measures involving China, including a number of restrictive market entry measures, which are extremely bad in nature. At the same time, the US government generalized the concept of national security, even included conventional products such as timber in the 232 investigation, and abused tariffs. The China Mechatronics Chamber of Commerce resolutely opposes this. The China Electromechanical Chamber of Commerce is concerned that relevant printing and copying equipment, as a key terminal for information input and output, is basic equipment for social and economic operations. It is widely used in various fields. Taking necessary measures to ensure that the printing and copying equipment industry conforms to national security interests, and is of great significance in ensuring the healthy development of domestic related industries. In the next step, the China Electromechanical Chamber of Commerce will actively organize relevant enterprises, cooperate with the Ministry of Commerce in carrying out investigations in accordance with the law, and help safeguard our industrial development and national security interests.
