SHANGHAI, Nov. 3 (Xinhua) — A total of 289 batches of exhibits for the 8th China International Import Expo (CIIE), worth a total of 24.7 million U.S. dollars, have been cleared as of Oct. 31, Shanghai Customs said Monday.
With the approval of the General Administration of Customs of the People's Republic of China, Shanghai Customs recently piloted the "CIIE Express" customs clearance model, allowing jewelry and other high-value exhibits to be delivered directly to the Expo site. This move was made given the lack of a comprehensive bonded warehouse in central Shanghai.
As part of the pilot program, the first batch of jewelry worth US$1.22 million was recently transported to the EXPO site, which will run from November 5 to 10.
Since the first CIIE in 2018, the expo has become a golden gateway for branded goods from around the world to enter the Chinese market. Shanghai Customs cleared 74 shipments of animal and plant products and food products from 12 countries for their debut in China. These included Maltese tuna, Afghan pomegranates, Australian avocados, and Benin pineapples.
According to Shanghai Customs, a total of 4,100 batches of relevant exhibits worth more than 8 billion yuan (approximately 1.12 billion US dollars) have been cleared since the Expo's inception. -0-
