HAIKOU, Jan. 18 (Xinhua) — A month after the launch of independent customs operations throughout the Hainan Free Trade Port (HFTP) in southern China, the port has seen initial achievements in improving trade and logistics efficiency.
On December 18, 2025, China launched an independent customs operation regime throughout the Hainan Free Trade Zone, providing freer entry of foreign goods, expanded coverage of zero tariffs, and a more favorable business environment.
One of the notable special customs measures is the provision of “freer first-line access,” which means freer trade between Hainan and areas outside China’s customs border, and “regulated second-line access,” which means maintaining standard customs control over the flow of goods from Hainan Island to the Chinese mainland.
According to data from Haikou Customs, from December 18, 2025 to January 17, 2026, its staff processed 750 million yuan (about 107 million US dollars) worth of zero-duty goods through “first-line” customs clearance, and about 85.9 million yuan worth of duty-exempt value-added goods destined for mainland China through “second-line” clearance. -0-
