南非将限制进口汽车套件组装 贸易部长：在SA Auto Week宣布逐步淘汰SKD模式
南非贸易部长帕克斯·陶在德班举行的SA Auto Week上发表讲话时表示，南非将收紧汽车制造规则，「逐步淘汰」将汽车以套件形式进口后在本地组装的做法。
陶在周四发布的一份声明中说，南非还将停止为任何新的半散件（SKD）组装业务提供政策支持。「我们将努力强化我们对全散件（CKD）制造的法律定义。」SKD模式通常比完整的本地制造创造更少的就业。
此举是南非推动汽车产业本地化的一部分：政府希望车企在南非进行更完整的制造，而非仅从事低附加值的套件组装。政策细节与过渡安排预计随规则修订公布。（GSM 据SA News报道）
South Africa to Restrict Assembly of Imported Car Kits, Trade Minister Says
South Africa will tighten vehicle-manufacturing rules to "phase out" the practice of importing cars as kits for assembly in the country, Trade Minister Parks Tau said during an address at SA Auto Week in Durban, according to a statement issued on Thursday and reported on October 17.
The country will also stop providing policy support for any new semi-knocked-down (SKD) operations, Tau said. "We will work to strengthen the legal definitions around what we determine as complete-knock-down manufacturing." SKD assembly typically creates fewer jobs than full manufacturing.
The move forms part of South Africa's push for localisation in the automotive industry, with the government seeking more complete manufacturing in the country rather than low-value kit assembly. Details of the revised rules and any transition arrangements are expected as the regulations are developed. (GSM, based on SA News reporting)
