BEIJING, July 21 (Xinhua) — An innovative customs clearance model that exempts cargo from transshipment after it enters the border crossing was officially launched at the Baktu Port of Tacheng County in northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on Sunday, the Xinjiang Daily reported.
This model allows the company to submit a customs declaration to the customs service at the point of departure of the goods or during transportation, which will perform a number of operations in advance, including verification of the declaration and risk analysis. Then the truck will be able to undergo customs clearance at an accelerated pace upon arrival at the control site at the border crossing, which will significantly reduce the storage and waiting time.
By implementing this model at the Baktu checkpoint, customs clearance time can be reduced from 3-4 hours to less than 10 minutes.
The new model will also reduce the company's operating costs, said Yao Fei, an official at a Xinjiang-based trading firm.
According to the results of the first five months of this year, 292 thousand tons of cargo were imported and exported through the Baktu checkpoint, which is 3.7 percent more than a year earlier, according to data from the Urumqi Customs Office.
This customs clearance model was first put into operation in Xinjiang at Alashankou Port in November 2023. Based on the successful experience, Urumqi Customs is working to expand this model to other border crossings in Xinjiang. -0-
