BEIJING, July 29 (Xinhua) — In the two years since the launch of the China-Europe international freight train routes at Tongjiang Railway Port in northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, a total of 285 freight trains have passed through the port, carrying 27,956 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEU) and handling more than 210,000 tons of freight, according to Zhongxinwang online portal.
The city of Tongjiang borders the Jewish Autonomous Region of Russia. This border city is home to the only border crossing in Heilongjiang Province that is connected to Russia by water, road and rail transport.
The Tongjiang Railway Port began operations in November 2022. Since the first China-Europe freight train passed through the port in July 2023, a total of 18 China-Europe freight routes have been launched at the port, covering more than 20 Chinese cities. It carries electric vehicles, home appliances, consumer goods, etc. to Europe, and delivers high-quality European products such as corrugated paper, plywood, and sugar beet meal to the domestic market in the opposite direction, providing an efficient and stable logistics channel for Belt and Road countries.
In order to ensure the efficient movement of China-Europe trains, Tongjiang Customs actively cooperates with enterprises to identify their needs, implements a series of simplification measures to promptly inspect trains upon arrival and promptly pass them through immediately after completion of the procedure, and actively promotes the “railway express” mode, which can reduce customs clearance time by 1-2 days.
According to the data, as of July 28, since the beginning of 2025, 65 trains have passed through the Tongjiang checkpoint on the China-Europe routes, transporting 5,576 standard containers of cargo weighing 60.6 thousand tons, among which more than 60 percent of the containers have undergone customs clearance under the “railway express” mode. -0-
