What evidence should a supplier provide for a review of ground clearance?

Updated 2026-09-10By Starvia Automotive

Short Answer

A practical method for dealers in Algeria to verify ground clearance, retain evidence, and control deviations in Chinese vehicle orders.

For Algeria, procurement and product-technical staff should jointly approve ground clearance instead of relying on a verbal handover. Link ground clearance to VIN, configuration code, and destination in the acceptance sheet rather than using only a model or project name. For ground clearance, check the signed specification, the VIN-linked record, and the vehicle check result against the connector, the label, and the vehicle function. Hold affected VINs for ground clearance and agree correction, replacement, or cancellation before shipment. Before closing ground clearance, review the corresponding import checklist. After a change, reopen only the record for ground clearance and preserve approved decisions on other product configuration items.
