This route runs out of Lianyungang, where the MSA simplified 'new three' filings in 2024, then follows a long Europe voyage extended through the Danish straits into the Baltic; at the far end is the port of Fredericia.

Denmark registers battery producers through Dansk Producentansvar. The 5 points below are particular to this lane; each comes with what we do and the paperwork it touches.

What we need to start

  • Lianyungang export
  • Break-bulk ESS guide
  • Danish-language safety information
  • Consignee EORI

Route profile

What sets Lianyungang → Fredericia apart

Origin port

Lianyungang

Jiangsu's Yellow Sea port, with a simplified document list for 'new three' cargo since 2024 and its own guide for energy-storage units on break-bulk ships.

Sea corridor

Asia – Baltic via the Danish straits

The Baltic is reached only through the Danish straits, where deep-draught ships are advised to take pilots, and its northern ports set ice-class restrictions every winter.

Where this route gets difficult

5 points to plan for on the Lianyungang → Fredericia route

Listed from loading in Lianyungang to import into Denmark, each with what we do about it.

  1. Origin port

    Yellow Sea fog from April to July

    The China Meteorological Administration describes sea fog as a major marine hazard in the Yellow and Bohai Seas, mainly from April to July. At Lianyungang, as at Qingdao, fog can hold vessels at anchor, and a changed vessel means amended DG filings.

    What Anxin does: In fog season we keep slack between stuffing and the DG cut-off and have the filing data ready to amend.

  2. Sea corridor

    EU emissions trading now covers the whole inbound voyage share

    Ships of 5,000 GT and above calling at EU ports, Fredericia included, are in the EU Emissions Trading System: 50% of the emissions of a voyage from China are covered, and the share of emissions for which lines must surrender allowances rises from 70% (for 2025 emissions) to 100% from 2027. Carriers can pass that cost on as a surcharge.

    What Anxin does: We ask for the emissions surcharge to be shown as its own line in the quote, with the basis the carrier uses, so that successive quotes can be compared like for like.

  3. Import country

    The ICS2 entry summary is due before loading in Lianyungang

    Sea cargo for the EU needs a complete Entry Summary Declaration under ICS2 Release 3, and for deep-sea containers it is due 24 hours before loading at the departure port. Carriers apply 'no manifest, no load', and a filing without a valid EORI number is rejected, so a data gap in Lianyungang leaves the box on the quay.

    What Anxin does: We collect the consignee's EORI number, an HS-level goods description and the house-bill parties at booking, and make sure the party filing the ENS has them before the Lianyungang cut-off.

  4. Import country

    CE marking and a declaration of conformity in the right language

    The importer in Denmark carries the check: CE marking on the battery and an EU declaration of conformity, translated into the language Denmark asks for, have both been required since 18 August 2024 for batteries entering the EU market.

    What Anxin does: We ask the manufacturer in China for the declaration of conformity and a photo of the CE marking on the battery or its packaging before loading, and pass them to the Denmark importer. We check that the documents exist and match the goods; we do not assess conformity.

  5. Import country

    Supply-chain due diligence moved to August 2027

    The Battery Regulation's due diligence obligations on cobalt, lithium, nickel and natural graphite were postponed by Regulation (EU) 2025/1561 and now apply from 18 August 2027, with Commission guidelines due by 26 July 2026. Buyers in Denmark are already asking suppliers for the supply-chain data they will need.

    What Anxin does: We pass the Denmark buyer's due diligence questions to the manufacturer and keep their answers with the shipment file; the policy itself remains the producer's responsibility.

Before you book

Match the details first

We line up UN numbers, model names and package counts across the Lianyungang filings, the booking with the carrier and the documents for Denmark before the booking is confirmed, so that a mismatch is fixed at origin rather than discovered at Fredericia.

Carriers we book with

Our booking panel; availability on this lane and acceptance of the declared UN numbers are confirmed for each booking. It does not mean that a listed carrier runs a direct service on this route. Carrier choice depends on the trade lane, cargo classification and each carrier's dangerous-goods acceptance at booking. The final carrier is confirmed on the booking.

Questions

Questions about shipping from Lianyungang to Fredericia

24 hours before the container is loaded in China, not before it reaches Fredericia. Without it carriers do not load the box, and a filing without an EORI number is rejected.

Often, but it depends on the service. The Baltic is reached through the Danish straits, and we ask the carrier to name any transhipment port and confirm DG acceptance for each vessel.

Under its Notice No. 1 of 2024, the cargo side submits the DG safe-carriage declaration, the inspector-signed packing certificate, the packaging inspection certificate where the goods are packaged, and a power of attorney.
