URUMQI, Dec. 3 (Xinhua) — The number of China-Europe and China-Central Asia train departures through the Horgos railway port in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region since the beginning of 2025 has exceeded 9,000.
This figure was reached after the departure on Tuesday of the China-Europe freight train from the Khorgos checkpoint to the Polish station of Malaszewicze, loaded with clothing, toys, electromechanical products, auto parts, and other goods.
On November 23, the number of China-Europe/Central Asia trains passing through the Khorgos railway checkpoint since the beginning of 2025 reached 8,742 units. This brings the total number of departures of such trains this year to the figure for the whole of 2024, 38 days earlier.
As a reminder, in May of this year, reform measures were launched at the Khorgos checkpoint aimed at introducing a smart railway checkpoint and speeding up customs clearance. As a result, the time it takes for imported goods to pass through the checkpoint was reduced from 2-3 days to less than 16 hours.
Currently, trains operate through the Khorgos railway checkpoint on 90 routes, covering 46 cities and regions in 18 countries. More than 50,000 China-Europe and China-Central Asia freight trains have passed through this border crossing.
