새로운 시대 탐색: 중국, 품질 보장을 위해 중고차 수출 규제 강화

1월부터 1, 2026, a new regulatory framework has officially reshaped China’s used car export industry. Jointly issued by four ministries, the new policy introduces a strict “180-day rule” aimed at curbing the practice of exporting zero-kilometer new cars under the guise of used vehicles. Under this regulation, vehicles registered for less than 180 days must now provide an after-sales service confirmation letter from the original manufacturer to obtain an export license. This shift has successfully steered the market toward genuine used cars, with vehicles aged 3 에게 5 years now accounting for 64% of total used car exports in the first half of the year. While this increases compliance costs, it is widely seen as a positive step that will elevate the overall quality, safety, and international reputation of China’s used car export sector.
