DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS | NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS SORL Auto Parts, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” or “SORL”), a Delaware corporation incorporated on March 24, 1982, is principally engaged in the manufacture and distribution of vehicle brake systems and other key safety-related components, through its 90% ownership of Ruili Group Ruian Auto Parts Co., Ltd. (the “Joint Venture” or “Ruian”). The Company distributes products both in China and internationally under SORL trademarks. The Company’s product range includes 140 categories and over 2,000 different specifications. The Joint Venture was formed in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC” or “China”) as a Sino-Foreign joint venture on January 17, 2004, pursuant to the terms of a Joint Venture Agreement between the Ruili Group Co., Ltd. (the “Ruili Group”), a related party under common control, and Fairford Holdings Limited (“Fairford”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Ruili Group was, incorporated in China in 1987 and specializes in the development, production and sale of various kinds of automotive parts. Fairford and the Ruili Group contributed 90% and 10%, respectively, of the paid-in capital of the Joint Venture. On November 11, 2009, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Fairford, entered into a joint venture agreement with MGR Hong Kong Limited (“MGR”), a Hong Kong-based global auto parts distribution specialist firm and an unaffiliated Taiwanese investor. The joint venture was named SORL International Holding, Ltd. (“SIH”) based in Hong Kong. SORL held a 60% interest in the joint venture, MGR held a 30% interest, and the Taiwanese investor held a 10% interest. SIH was primarily devoted to expanding SORL’s international sales network in Asia-Pacific and creating a larger footprint in Europe, the Middle East and Africa with a target to create a truly global distribution network. In December 2015, due to poor financial performance of SIH, Fairfold sold all of its interest in SIH to the Taiwanese investor. After this transaction, SIH ceased to be a distributor of SORL in the international market. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES a. ACCOUNTING METHOD The Company uses the accrual method of accounting for financial statement and tax return purposes. b. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SORL Auto Parts, Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the respective periods are included in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. The portion of the income or loss applicable to non-controlling interests in subsidiary undertakings is reflected in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. c. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes its best estimate of the outcome for these items based on historical trends and other information available when the financial statements are prepared. Changes in estimates are recognized in accordance with the accounting rules for the estimate, which is typically in the period when new information becomes available to management. Actual results could differ from those estimates. d. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivables and payables, prepaid expenses, bank acceptance notes from customers, inventories, other current assets, short term bank loans, current portion of long term loans, deposits received from customers and other payables and accruals, the carrying amounts approximate fair values due to their short maturities. Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated. It is not, however, practical to determine the fair value of amounts due from/to related parties due to their related party nature. e. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. f. FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT The Company is exposed to the following risk factors: i) Credit risks - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company has policies in place to ensure that sales of products are made to customers with an appropriate credit history. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations with respect to the financial condition of its creditors, but does not require collateral. In order to determine the value of the Company’s accounts receivable, the Company records a provision for doubtful accounts to cover probable credit losses. Management reviews and adjusts this allowance periodically based on historical experience and its evaluation of the collection of outstanding accounts receivable. The Company has a concentration of credit risk due to geographic sales as a majority of its products are marketed and sold in the PRC. The Company has no customer that accounts for more than 10.00% of its total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2018. ii) Liquidity risks - Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and ability to close out market positions. iii) Interest rate risk - The interest rate of short term bank borrowings obtained in 2018 ranged from 1.92% to 5.72% and the term ranged from approximately one month to one year. The Company also obtained long term loans from non-financial institutions for effective interest rates ranging from 6.16% to 8.50%. The Company’s income and cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. g. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. h . RESTRICTED CASH Restricted cash, current consists of bank deposits used to pledge bank acceptance notes, deposits for obtaining letters of credit from a local bank, and bank deposit held as a guarantee for the loans obtained by Wenzhou Lichuang Automobile Parts Co., Ltd., a related party, from the bank. Also see Note 4 for details on the guarantee provided to related party. Restricted cash, non-current consists of deposits guaranteed for construction projects and the non-current portion of some bank deposits used to pledge for bank acceptance notes. i . INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost computed on a weighted-average basis. Cost includes all costs of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. j . PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The initial cost of the asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the respective assets as follows: Category Estimated Useful Life (Years) Buildings 10-20 Machinery and equipment 5-10 Electronic equipment 5 Motor vehicles 5-10 Leasehold improvements The lesser of remaining lease term or 10 Significant improvements are capitalized when it is probable that the expenditure resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset beyond its originally assessed standard of performance. When improvements are made to real property and those improvements are permanently affixed to the property, the title to those improvements automatically transfers to the owner of the property. The lessee’s interest in the improvements is not a direct ownership interest but rather it is an intangible right to use and benefit from the improvements during the term of the lease. Routine repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred. Gains and losses on disposal of fixed assets are recognized in the income statement based on the net disposal proceeds less the carrying amount of the assets. k . LAND USE RIGHTS According to the law of China, the government owns all the land in China. Companies or individuals are authorized to possess and use the land only through land use rights granted by the Chinese government. Land use rights are being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 40 years. l . IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment and other non-current assets, including intangible assets, are reviewed periodically for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset or group of assets is less than their carrying value. If impairment exists, an adjustment is made to write the asset down to its fair value, and a loss is recorded as the difference between the carrying value and fair value. Fair values are determined based on quoted market values, discounted cash flows or internal and external appraisals, as applicable. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value. m . ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCE FOR BAD DEBTS The Company presents accounts receivables, net of allowances for doubtful accounts and returns, to ensure accounts receivable are not overstated due to being uncollectible. The allowances are calculated based on a detailed review of certain individual customer accounts, historical collectability rates, a general provision based on aging and an estimation of the overall economic conditions affecting the Company’s customer base. The Company reviews a customer’s credit history before extending credit. If the financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The Company will write off the uncollectible receivables once any customers are bankrupt or there is a remote possibility that the Company will collect the outstanding balance. The write-off must be reported to the local tax authorities and the Company must receive official approval from them. To date, the Company has not written off any account receivables. n . BANK ACCEPTANCE NOTES FROM CUSTOMERS Bank acceptance notes from customers, generally due within six months and with specific payment terms and definitive due dates, are comprised of the notes issued by some customers to pay certain outstanding receivable balances to the Company, and the notes issued by the customers of related parties and transferred to the Company as loans from related parties or repayments from related parties. Bank acceptance notes do not bear interest. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, notes receivables in the amount of $58,458,890 and $95,914,724, respectively, were pledged to endorsing banks to issue bank acceptance notes or short term bank loans. The banks charge discount fees if the Company chooses to discount the notes receivables for cash before the maturity of the notes. The Company incurred discount fees of $1,463,837 and $37,177 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, which were included in interest expenses. o . REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”) effective January 1, 2018. The Company has chosen to use the full retrospective transition method, under which it is required to revise its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 as well as any applicable interim periods within the year ended December 31, 2017, as if ASC 606 had been effective for those periods. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contracts with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods it transfers to the customer. See Note 14 for details on revenues from contracts with customers. p . INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for income taxes under the provision of FASB ASC 740-10, Income Taxes q . FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION The Company maintains its books and accounting records in RMB, the currency of the PRC, The Company’s functional currency is also RMB. The Company has adopted FASB ASC 830-30 in translating financial statement amounts from RMB to the Company’s reporting currency, U.S. dollars (“US$”). All assets and liabilities are translated at the current rate. The stockholders’ equity accounts are translated at appropriate historical rate. Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are include in the results of operations as incurred. r . EMPLOYEES’ BENEFITS Mandatory contributions are made to government’s health, retirement benefit and unemployment schemes at the statutory rates in force during the period, based on gross salary payments. The cost of these payments is charged to the statement of income in the same period as the related salary costs. s . RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses were $16,366,393 for the year ended December 31, 2018, as compared with $11,004,560 for the year ended December 31, 2017. t . SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS Shipping and handling cost are classified as selling expenses and are expensed as incurred. Shipping and handling costs were $11,358,223 and $7,094,863 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. u . ADVERTISING COSTS Advertising costs are classified as selling expenses and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $737,530 and $440,582 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. v . WARRANTY CLAIMS The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties when the products are sold. Such estimates of product warranties were based on, among other things, historical experience, product changes, material expenses, and service and transportation expenses arising from the manufactured product. Estimates will be adjusted on the basis of actual claims and circumstances. Warranty claims were $3,113,913 and $1,570,290 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. w . PURCHASE DISCOUNTS Purchase discounts represent discounts received from vendors for purchasing raw materials and are netted in the cost of goods sold, if applicable. x . LEASE COMMITMENTS The Company has adopted FASB Accounting Standard Codification, or ASC 840, Lease y . COST OF SALES Cost of sales consists primarily of materials costs, applicable local government levies, freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, employee compensation, depreciation and related costs, which are directly attributable to production. Write-down of inventories to lower of cost or market is also recorded in cost of sales, if any. z . GOVERNMENT GRANTS Government grants include cash subsidies as well as other subsidies received from the PRC government by the Joint Venture. Such subsidies are generally provided as incentives from the local government to encourage the expansion of local business. Government grants are recognized when received and all the conditions specified in the grant have been met. Capital grants received in advance of the acquisition of equipment are recorded initially in deferred income and then offset against the cost of the related equipment upon acquisition. aa. SEGMENT REPORTING ASC Topic 280 requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company operated in two reportable business segments: (1) commercial vehicles brake systems (2) passenger vehicles brake systems. bb. RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STANDARDS In May 2014, the FASB ASU 2014-9, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which was further updated by ASU 2016-08 in March 2016, ASU 2016-10 in April 2016, ASU 2016-11 in May 2016, ASU 2016-12 in May 2016 and ASU 2016-20 in December 2016. ASC 606 outlines a single set of comprehensive principles for recognizing revenue under U.S. GAAP and supersedes the revenue recognition guidance existed at the time. The main principle of ASC 606 is that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applied the ASC and its related updates on a full retrospective basis as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASC 606 did not impact the previously reported financial statements in any prior period nor did it result in a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. See Note 14 for additional information. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash”. These amendments require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As a result, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The Company adopted ASU 2016-18 effective January 1, 2018. As a result of the adoption, net cash used in investing activities was adjusted to exclude the change in restricted cash, resulting in an increase of $5,275,390 in net cash used in investing activities in the amount previously reported for the year ended December 31, 2017. Restricted cash was included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows. In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118”. The amendments in this ASU add SEC paragraphs pursuant to the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, which expresses the view of the staff regarding application of Topic 740, Income Taxes, in the reporting period that includes December 22, 2017 - the date on which the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into law. The amendments are effective upon addition to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The Company adopted this standard and evaluated the impact from the Tax Cut and Jobs Act pursuant to SAB 118, see Note 16 for further disclosures. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-09, “Codification Improvements”, which affects a wide variety of Topics in the Codification and applies to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. These amendments represent changes to clarify, correct errors in, or make minor improvements to the Codification, eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications in current guidance. Some of the amendments do not require transition guidance and will be effective upon issuance. However, many of the amendments do have transition guidance with effective dates for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, for public business entities. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date including a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use (ROU) asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Leases with a term of twelve months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. In December 2017, January 2018, July 2018 and December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13, ASU 2018-01, ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-11 and ASU 2018-20 respectively, which contain modifications and improvements to ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 provides another transition method in addition to the existing transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. This ASU also provides lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component, similar to the expedient provided for lessees. However, the lessor practical expedient is limited to circumstances in which the non-lease component or components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue guidance and both (1) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the non-lease component(s) and associated lease component and (2) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. The Company will adopt this new guidance for the year ending December 31, 2019 and interim periods in the year ending December 31, 2019. The Company estimates that approximately $1,163,000 would be recognized as total right-of-use assets and total lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. Other than as disclosed above, the Company does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on its remaining consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), – Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”, which makes a number of changes meant to add, modify or remove certain disclosure requirements associated with the movement amongst or hierarchy associated with Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this Update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in FASB Concepts Statement, Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting—Chapter 8: Notes to Financial Statements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impacts of ASU 2018-13 on its consolidated financial statements. |

The GILTI provision imposes a tax to U.S. companies on the foreign income in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of controlled foreign corporations, subject to certain deductions and limitations. The Company will report the tax impact of GILTI as a period cost when incurred. Accordingly, the Company is not providing deferred taxes for basis differences expected to reverse as GILTI in the future, as applicable. See Note 16 for more discussion.

The adoption of the standard did not impact the Company's revenue recognition. The Company provides a variety of standard products to its customers. The Company's contracts with its customers consist of a single, distinct performance obligation or promise to transfer auto parts to the customers. Generally, the Company's performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time when the control of the products is transferred to the customs, which normally occurs upon the delivery of products at shipping point or destination depending on the terms of the contracts. Payment term with our customers are established based on industry and regional practices and vary by customers. The Company elected to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities, and the related costs are recorded as selling expenses. The Company provides assurance type warranties, which are not separate performance obligations.

As stipulated by the relevant laws and regulations for enterprises operating in the PRC, Ruian is required to make annual appropriations to the statutory surplus funds. In accordance with the relevant PRC regulations and the articles of association of the respective companies, Ruian is required to allocate a certain percentage of its profits after taxation, as determined in accordance with PRC accounting standards applicable to the Company, to the statutory surplus reserve until such reserve reaches 50% of the registered capital of the Company. Net income as reported in the U.S. GAAP financial statements differs from that as reported in the PRC statutory financial statements. In accordance with the relevant laws and regulations in the PRC, the profits available for distribution are based on the statutory financial statements. If Ruian has foreign currency available after meeting its operational needs, Ruian may make its profit distributions in foreign currency to the extent foreign currency is available.

INCOME TAXES | NOTE 16 - INCOME TAXES In December 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "2017 Tax Act") was enacted into law and the new legislation contains several key tax provisions that affected the Company, including, among others, a reduction of the federal corporate income tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018, and a recognition of the U.S. corporate income tax based on the deemed repatriation to the United States of the Company's share of previously deferred earnings of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries of the Company upon enactment of the 2017 Tax Act. The Company is required to recognize the effect of the 2017 Tax Act in the period of enactment. In December 2017, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 ("SAB 118"), Income Tax Accounting Implications of the 2017 Tax Act, which allows the Company to record provisional amounts during a measurement period not to extend beyond one year of the enactment date. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recognized a one-time transition tax of $11,022,985 that represented management's estimate of the amount of U.S. corporate income tax based on the deemed repatriation to the United States of the Company's share of previously deferred earnings of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries of the Company mandated by the U.S. Tax Reform. The Company also recognized related interest and penalty in the amount of $587,821. The Company elected to pay the one-time transition tax over eight years commencing in 2018. The actual impact of the U.S. Tax Reform on the Company may differ from management's estimates, and management may update its judgments based on future regulations or guidance issued or changes in the interpretations taken that would adjust the provisional amounts recorded. As of December 31, 2018, $2,451,499 was included in income tax payable as a current liability which the Company believes will be paid within one year and the remaining balance was included in income tax payable, non-current. As of the filing date, no transition tax payment has been made. The 2017 Tax Act also created a new requirement that, for the periods beginning after January 1, 2018, certain income (referred to as global intangible low-taxed income or "GILTI") earned by foreign subsidiaries in excess of a deemed return on tangible assets of foreign corporations must be included in U.S. taxable income. The GILTI income is eligible for a deduction, which lowers the effective tax rate to 10.5% for calendar years 2018 through 2025 and 13.125% after 2025. Under U.S. GAAP, companies are allowed to make an accounting policy election to either (i) account for GILTI as a component of tax expense in the period in which a company is subject to the rules – the period cost method, or (ii) account for GILTI in a company's measurement of deferred taxes – the deferred method. The Company elected to account for GILTI in the period the tax is incurred. The Company did not generate any GILTI during the year ended December 31, 2018. The Joint Venture is registered in the PRC, and is therefore subject to state and local income taxes within the PRC at the applicable tax rate on the taxable income as reported in the PRC statutory financial statements in accordance with relevant income tax laws. In 2015, the Joint Venture was awarded the Chinese government's "High-Tech Enterprise" designation for a third time, which is valid for three years and it continues to be taxed at the 15% tax rate in 2015, 2016 and 2017. As the "High-Tech Enterprise" designation expired in 2018, the Joint Venture is undergoing the re-assessment by the government and the Company estimates it is highly probable that the designation will be awarded and therefore the 15% tax rate is used for the years ended December 31, 2018. The reconciliation of the effective income tax rate of the Company to the respective statutory income tax rates in the United States and the PRC for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 is as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2018 2017 US statutory income tax rate 21.00 % 35.00 % Valuation allowance recognized with respect to the loss in the US company -21.00 % -35.00 % Impact of Tax Cuts and Jobs Act 37.45 % - China statutory income tax rate 25.00 % 25.00 % Effects of income tax exemptions and reliefs -10.00 % -10.00 % Effects of additional deduction allowed for R&D expenses -4.42 % -2.34 % Effects of expenses not deductible for tax purposes 2.32 % 0.79 % Other items 0.22 % 1.41 % Effective tax rate 50.58 % 14.86 % Income taxes are calculated on a separate entity basis. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The provisions for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, are summarized as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2018 2017 Current $ 15,852,188 $ 5,524,868 Deferred (37,588 ) (807,058 ) Total $ 15,814,600 $ 4,717,810 ASC 740-10 requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a "more-likely-than-not" approach. The management evaluated the Company's tax positions and considered that no provision for uncertainty in income taxes was necessary as of December 31, 2018 and 2017. |

Summary of Significant Accoun_2
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2018 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
ACCOUNTING METHOD | a. ACCOUNTING METHOD The Company uses the accrual method of accounting for financial statement and tax return purposes. |
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION | b. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SORL Auto Parts, Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the respective periods are included in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. The portion of the income or loss applicable to non-controlling interests in subsidiary undertakings is reflected in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. |
USE OF ESTIMATES | c. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management makes its best estimate of the outcome for these items based on historical trends and other information available when the financial statements are prepared. Changes in estimates are recognized in accordance with the accounting rules for the estimate, which is typically in the period when new information becomes available to management. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | d. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivables and payables, prepaid expenses, bank acceptance notes from customers, inventories, other current assets, short term bank loans, current portion of long term loans, deposits received from customers and other payables and accruals, the carrying amounts approximate fair values due to their short maturities. Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated. It is not, however, practical to determine the fair value of amounts due from/to related parties due to their related party nature. |
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS | e. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company. A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties. |
FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT | f. FINANCIAL RISK FACTORS AND FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT The Company is exposed to the following risk factors: i) Credit risks - Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company has policies in place to ensure that sales of products are made to customers with an appropriate credit history. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations with respect to the financial condition of its creditors, but does not require collateral. In order to determine the value of the Company’s accounts receivable, the Company records a provision for doubtful accounts to cover probable credit losses. Management reviews and adjusts this allowance periodically based on historical experience and its evaluation of the collection of outstanding accounts receivable. The Company has a concentration of credit risk due to geographic sales as a majority of its products are marketed and sold in the PRC. The Company has no customer that accounts for more than 10.00% of its total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2018. ii) Liquidity risks - Prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and ability to close out market positions. iii) Interest rate risk - The interest rate of short term bank borrowings obtained in 2018 ranged from 1.92% to 5.72% and the term ranged from approximately one month to one year. The Company also obtained long term loans from non-financial institutions for effective interest rates ranging from 6.16% to 8.50%. The Company’s income and cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. |
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS | g. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. |
RESTRICTED CASH | h . RESTRICTED CASH Restricted cash, current consists of bank deposits used to pledge bank acceptance notes, deposits for obtaining letters of credit from a local bank, and bank deposit held as a guarantee for the loans obtained by Wenzhou Lichuang Automobile Parts Co., Ltd., a related party, from the bank. Also see Note 4 for details on the guarantee provided to related party. Restricted cash, non-current consists of deposits guaranteed for construction projects and the non-current portion of some bank deposits used to pledge for bank acceptance notes. |
INVENTORIES | i . INVENTORIES Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost computed on a weighted-average basis. Cost includes all costs of purchase, cost of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. |
PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT | j . PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. The initial cost of the asset comprises its purchase price and any directly attributable costs of bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the respective assets as follows: Category Estimated Useful Life (Years) Buildings 10-20 Machinery and equipment 5-10 Electronic equipment 5 Motor vehicles 5-10 Leasehold improvements The lesser of remaining lease term or 10 Significant improvements are capitalized when it is probable that the expenditure resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset beyond its originally assessed standard of performance. When improvements are made to real property and those improvements are permanently affixed to the property, the title to those improvements automatically transfers to the owner of the property. The lessee’s interest in the improvements is not a direct ownership interest but rather it is an intangible right to use and benefit from the improvements during the term of the lease. Routine repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred. Gains and losses on disposal of fixed assets are recognized in the income statement based on the net disposal proceeds less the carrying amount of the assets. |
LAND USE RIGHTS | k . LAND USE RIGHTS According to the law of China, the government owns all the land in China. Companies or individuals are authorized to possess and use the land only through land use rights granted by the Chinese government. Land use rights are being amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 40 years. |
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS | l . IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS Long-lived assets, such as property, plant and equipment and other non-current assets, including intangible assets, are reviewed periodically for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset or group of assets is less than their carrying value. If impairment exists, an adjustment is made to write the asset down to its fair value, and a loss is recorded as the difference between the carrying value and fair value. Fair values are determined based on quoted market values, discounted cash flows or internal and external appraisals, as applicable. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of carrying value or estimated net realizable value. |
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCE FOR BAD DEBTS | m . ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLES AND ALLOWANCE FOR BAD DEBTS The Company presents accounts receivables, net of allowances for doubtful accounts and returns, to ensure accounts receivable are not overstated due to being uncollectible. The allowances are calculated based on a detailed review of certain individual customer accounts, historical collectability rates, a general provision based on aging and an estimation of the overall economic conditions affecting the Company’s customer base. The Company reviews a customer’s credit history before extending credit. If the financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. The Company will write off the uncollectible receivables once any customers are bankrupt or there is a remote possibility that the Company will collect the outstanding balance. The write-off must be reported to the local tax authorities and the Company must receive official approval from them. To date, the Company has not written off any account receivables. |
BANK ACCEPTANCE NOTES FROM CUSTOMERS | n . BANK ACCEPTANCE NOTES FROM CUSTOMERS Bank acceptance notes from customers, generally due within six months and with specific payment terms and definitive due dates, are comprised of the notes issued by some customers to pay certain outstanding receivable balances to the Company, and the notes issued by the customers of related parties and transferred to the Company as loans from related parties or repayments from related parties. Bank acceptance notes do not bear interest. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, notes receivables in the amount of $58,458,890 and $95,914,724, respectively, were pledged to endorsing banks to issue bank acceptance notes or short term bank loans. The banks charge discount fees if the Company chooses to discount the notes receivables for cash before the maturity of the notes. The Company incurred discount fees of $1,463,837 and $37,177 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, which were included in interest expenses. |
REVENUE RECOGNITION | o . REVENUE RECOGNITION The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”) effective January 1, 2018. The Company has chosen to use the full retrospective transition method, under which it is required to revise its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 as well as any applicable interim periods within the year ended December 31, 2017, as if ASC 606 had been effective for those periods. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contracts with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods it transfers to the customer. See Note 14 for details on revenues from contracts with customers. |
INCOME TAXES | p . INCOME TAXES The Company accounts for income taxes under the provision of FASB ASC 740-10, Income Taxes |
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION | q . FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION The Company maintains its books and accounting records in RMB, the currency of the PRC, The Company’s functional currency is also RMB. The Company has adopted FASB ASC 830-30 in translating financial statement amounts from RMB to the Company’s reporting currency, U.S. dollars (“US$”). All assets and liabilities are translated at the current rate. The stockholders’ equity accounts are translated at appropriate historical rate. Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are include in the results of operations as incurred. |
EMPLOYEES’ BENEFITS | r . EMPLOYEES’ BENEFITS Mandatory contributions are made to government’s health, retirement benefit and unemployment schemes at the statutory rates in force during the period, based on gross salary payments. The cost of these payments is charged to the statement of income in the same period as the related salary costs. |
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES | s . RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses were $16,366,393 for the year ended December 31, 2018, as compared with $11,004,560 for the year ended December 31, 2017. |
SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS | t . SHIPPING AND HANDLING COSTS Shipping and handling cost are classified as selling expenses and are expensed as incurred. Shipping and handling costs were $11,358,223 and $7,094,863 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. |
ADVERTISING COSTS | u . ADVERTISING COSTS Advertising costs are classified as selling expenses and are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $737,530 and $440,582 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. |
WARRANTY CLAIMS | v . WARRANTY CLAIMS The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties when the products are sold. Such estimates of product warranties were based on, among other things, historical experience, product changes, material expenses, and service and transportation expenses arising from the manufactured product. Estimates will be adjusted on the basis of actual claims and circumstances. Warranty claims were $3,113,913 and $1,570,290 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. |
PURCHASE DISCOUNTS | w . PURCHASE DISCOUNTS Purchase discounts represent discounts received from vendors for purchasing raw materials and are netted in the cost of goods sold, if applicable. |
LEASE COMMITMENTS | x . LEASE COMMITMENTS The Company has adopted FASB Accounting Standard Codification, or ASC 840, Lease |
COST OF SALES | y . COST OF SALES Cost of sales consists primarily of materials costs, applicable local government levies, freight charges, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs, employee compensation, depreciation and related costs, which are directly attributable to production. Write-down of inventories to lower of cost or market is also recorded in cost of sales, if any. |
GOVERNMENT GRANTS | z . GOVERNMENT GRANTS Government grants include cash subsidies as well as other subsidies received from the PRC government by the Joint Venture. Such subsidies are generally provided as incentives from the local government to encourage the expansion of local business. Government grants are recognized when received and all the conditions specified in the grant have been met. Capital grants received in advance of the acquisition of equipment are recorded initially in deferred income and then offset against the cost of the related equipment upon acquisition. |
SEGMENT REPORTING | aa. SEGMENT REPORTING ASC Topic 280 requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company operated in two reportable business segments: (1) commercial vehicles brake systems (2) passenger vehicles brake systems. |
RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STANDARDS | bb. RECENTLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STANDARDS In May 2014, the FASB ASU 2014-9, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which was further updated by ASU 2016-08 in March 2016, ASU 2016-10 in April 2016, ASU 2016-11 in May 2016, ASU 2016-12 in May 2016 and ASU 2016-20 in December 2016. ASC 606 outlines a single set of comprehensive principles for recognizing revenue under U.S. GAAP and supersedes the revenue recognition guidance existed at the time. The main principle of ASC 606 is that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applied the ASC and its related updates on a full retrospective basis as of January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASC 606 did not impact the previously reported financial statements in any prior period nor did it result in a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. See Note 14 for additional information. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash”. These amendments require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. As a result, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The Company adopted ASU 2016-18 effective January 1, 2018. As a result of the adoption, net cash used in investing activities was adjusted to exclude the change in restricted cash, resulting in an increase of $5,275,390 in net cash used in investing activities in the amount previously reported for the year ended December 31, 2017. Restricted cash was included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the consolidated statements of cash flows. In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, “Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118”. The amendments in this ASU add SEC paragraphs pursuant to the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, which expresses the view of the staff regarding application of Topic 740, Income Taxes, in the reporting period that includes December 22, 2017 - the date on which the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into law. The amendments are effective upon addition to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The Company adopted this standard and evaluated the impact from the Tax Cut and Jobs Act pursuant to SAB 118, see Note 16 for further disclosures. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-09, “Codification Improvements”, which affects a wide variety of Topics in the Codification and applies to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance. These amendments represent changes to clarify, correct errors in, or make minor improvements to the Codification, eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications in current guidance. Some of the amendments do not require transition guidance and will be effective upon issuance. However, many of the amendments do have transition guidance with effective dates for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, for public business entities. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date including a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use (ROU) asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Leases with a term of twelve months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. In December 2017, January 2018, July 2018 and December 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2017-13, ASU 2018-01, ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-11 and ASU 2018-20 respectively, which contain modifications and improvements to ASU 2016-02. ASU 2018-11 provides another transition method in addition to the existing transition method by allowing entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. This ASU also provides lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component, similar to the expedient provided for lessees. However, the lessor practical expedient is limited to circumstances in which the non-lease component or components otherwise would be accounted for under the new revenue guidance and both (1) the timing and pattern of transfer are the same for the non-lease component(s) and associated lease component and (2) the lease component, if accounted for separately, would be classified as an operating lease. The Company will adopt this new guidance for the year ending December 31, 2019 and interim periods in the year ending December 31, 2019. The Company estimates that approximately $1,163,000 would be recognized as total right-of-use assets and total lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. Other than as disclosed above, the Company does not expect the new standard to have a material impact on its remaining consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), – Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”, which makes a number of changes meant to add, modify or remove certain disclosure requirements associated with the movement amongst or hierarchy associated with Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The amendments in this Update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in FASB Concepts Statement, Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting—Chapter 8: Notes to Financial Statements, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impacts of ASU 2018-13 on its consolidated financial statements. |
