On February 22, a batch of goods from Hebei Baigou luggage market were successfully exported to Tianjin Port after passing the integrated declaration. Different from the past, this batch of goods is completed in the Baigou Luggage Market in Hebei Province by market procurement, and directly transported from the origin to Tianjin Port to implement the "arrival and direct loading" mode.
When the market procurement ** uses the 'arrival direct loading' mode, not only the logistics cost is saved, but also the customs clearance is more convenient. Compared with the previous transit mode, a single ticket has saved nearly 1,200 yuan. The person in charge of Hebei Baoding Yaochang Import and Export said that after the adoption of the integrated model of market procurement and customs clearance, the business volume has quadrupled compared with usual, and the company has really felt the policy dividend.
Market procurement** is a new form of foreign trade that has emerged in recent years, and eligible operators purchase goods in the market agglomeration area recognized by the state, and the value of a single customs declaration is less than 150,000 US dollars, and the export customs clearance procedures can be handled at the place of purchase. Compared with the general method, the market procurement method has the characteristics of lower entry threshold, faster customs clearance and export, better tax policy, and more flexible foreign exchange management.
The "direct loading on arrival" model is a new export logistics model pioneered by Tianjin Customs and Tianjin Port Group and applied on a large scale, and this reform has been replicated and promoted in many seaports across the country. Under this model, the export goods can be directly connected from the factory to the terminal, which shortens the logistics time of the export goods, gives the company more time to produce, and helps to improve the ability to undertake urgent orders.
Hebei Baigou luggage market is one of the third batch of national market procurement pilots, which has played an important role in activating business entities, expanding market scale, and improving economic extroversion and internationalization. Shijiazhuang Customs actively carried out the promotion of policies and regulations such as customs clearance facilitation and customs protection of intellectual property rights, guided enterprises to adopt the "direct loading on arrival" model, strengthened risk analysis and collaborative control, and provided a good port business environment for the development of new business formats.
At the same time, the customs of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei encourage export enterprises to choose the customs clearance mode independently, and include the market procurement enterprises in the scope of convenient guarantees such as "direct loading on arrival" and "homeopathic machine inspection" for exports, so as to ensure that enterprises collect at the port late and release quickly, so as to realize the direct delivery of export goods from the place of departure to the terminal of Tianjin Port.
In September 2022, seven ministries and commissions, including the Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs, officially approved Tianjin Wanglanzhuang International Trade City and Hebei Tangshan International Trade and Trade Center as the sixth batch of pilot market procurement methods in the country. Since the approval of the pilot, the customs of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei have taken the initiative to dock, follow up the whole process, fully learn from the first-class experience of Baigou luggage market procurement, actively promote the pilot market to complete the customs clearance and export business, guide enterprises to implement the "direct loading on arrival" model, and continue to support and cultivate the export of local characteristic and advantageous products.
Under the protection of various customs clearance measures, the market procurement of Wanglanzhuang International Trade City and Tangshan International Trade and Trade Center is accelerating. The relevant person in charge of the customs of the three places said that they will give full play to Tianjin's function as the maritime gateway of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, continue to work together to promote the healthy, standardized and orderly development of the market procurement pilot, build a new bridge for individual industrial and commercial households and small and micro enterprises to open up the international market, and at the same time help import and export enterprises to better integrate into the "dual circulation" and accelerate the construction of a new pattern of business and trade development serving the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
When the market procurement mode and the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei customs business are carried out in tandem, the reform dividends will be continuously released. This year is the 10th year of the coordinated development of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei customs will continue to deepen cooperation, jointly establish a "contact" system, through the improvement and optimization of the cross-customs area customs coordination guarantee mechanism, a package to solve the problems encountered by enterprises such as customs clearance, inspection and port operations, and continue to expand the application scale of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei innovation model.
