Shenzhen Special Zone News: First Vote! The GMS international road transportation business in the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area has been launched in Shenzhen

Recently, a truck loaded with 16 tons of electronic components drove out of the Qianhai Comprehensive Bonded Zone in Shenzhen. This international transport vehicle, bearing the "Greater Mekong Subregion Agreement for the Convenient Cross border Transport of Goods and Persons" (GMS) logo, is loaded with high-value electronic components. After efficient inspection and release by Shekou Customs, it exits through Guangxi Friendship Customs and goes directly to Vietnam. This marks the successful launch of the first GMS international road transportation service in the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area, and also marks the official opening of the "Cross border Logistics Shinkansen" connecting the Greater Bay Area with Southeast Asia.
This launch is another key breakthrough in the field of international road transportation facilitation in Shenzhen, following the implementation of the first "TIR+bonded" business in the Greater Bay Area. The new model relies on the Cross border Transport Agreement for Convenient Goods and Personnel in the Greater Mekong Subregion, and leverages the policy advantage of "one certificate connecting six countries" to achieve "one commission, one order to the end, and one box direct delivery" for cross-border freight. The goods are sealed and signed throughout the entire process from the place of origin to the destination where they are unpacked, without the need to change vehicles. This effectively solves the pain points of traditional intermodal transportation mode, such as multiple loading and unloading at border ports, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and high risk of cargo damage.
Transportation time has been saved by over 30%, and logistics costs have been reduced by about 15%, "said Sun Jialin, General Manager of Shenzhen Qianhai Yufei Warehousing Co., Ltd. The company specializes in electronic product supply chain management and has high requirements for logistics timeliness and safety. In the past, goods transported to Southeast Asia needed to be unloaded at border ports and loaded onto other vehicles. Now, with the help of GMS mode, goods can be directly loaded onto vehicles from the bonded warehouse in the front sea, and delivered to overseas customers "door-to-door". Zero replacement ensures the safety of precision electronic components to the greatest extent possible, and significantly improves the efficiency of capital turnover, adding confidence to the expansion of the Southeast Asian market for enterprises.
It is reported that Shekou Customs has contacted and confirmed the GMS qualifications and driving routes of vehicles in advance for the new business model of "bonded goods+GMS transportation", tailored monitoring and sampling plans, strengthened linkage with border port customs, and ensured seamless clearance of goods. Enterprises can complete export consolidation and customs declaration in advance within the Qianhai Comprehensive Bonded Zone and enjoy the tax refund policy upon entering the zone.
