The first batch of Zhangxiong fish fry exported from Hainan Port will be cleared through customs in 2026

On March 20th, the "61st Wakamimaru" fish fry ship set sail with 160000 male fish fry, sounding their horns, heading towards Japan. This is the first batch of Zhangxiong fish fry exported from Hainan Port in 2026, marking the beginning of the peak season for the export of Hainan's characteristic aquatic products in the new year.

As a tropical specialty aquatic species, Zhangxiong fish has delicious meat and outstanding economic value, and is an important raw material for the high-end sashimi market in Japan. In recent years, as Hainan continues to promote the improvement of characteristic agriculture quality and efficiency, Zhangxiong fish farming has become the "flagship product" of local aquatic exports, with strong market demand and stable export orders throughout the year.

If released one minute earlier, the fry will have an extra chance of survival, "said Xing Weikai, Deputy Director of the Cruise Supervision Department of Sanya Customs, a subsidiary of Haikou Customs. In response to the characteristics of" freshness, liveliness, and urgency "of fish fry exports, the customs have communicated with the ship owners and agency companies in advance, grasped the dynamics of the ship's arrival at the port, tailored regulatory plans, and implemented the" appointment inspection, immediate handling "mode. On the premise of strictly implementing regulatory requirements, the ship's stay time in the port is minimized to the greatest extent possible, and precious time is saved for the smooth export of fish fry.
