On June 13th, Mr. Yang, a resident of Macau, drove into Hengqin Port. At the "Guangdong Macao Joint One Stop" inspection channel, he lowered the car window and skillfully measured his temperature, pressed his fingerprints, and so on in one go. In just 2 minutes, the car had already driven onto the road in Hengqin.

I often drive back and forth to Qin'ao, take my family on trips, and purchase daily necessities. Nowadays, cross-border customs clearance is becoming increasingly 'boring', "Mr. Yang said. This' emotionless' experience is becoming a daily routine for more and more residents of Qin'ao in their twin cities.

According to statistics from Gongbei Customs, as of 6:00 pm on June 13th this year, the number of vehicles entering and exiting through Hengqin Port has exceeded 2 million, a year-on-year increase of 42.4%. Among them, the proportion of single license plate vehicles in Macau continues to rise, with nearly 1.32 million vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 42.3%, and strong cross-border traffic vitality between Qinhuangdao and Macau.

This 50 meter passage, with continuous traffic, witnesses the new speed of integration between the people of Qin'ao and Qin'ao. As the core hub of Qin'ao connectivity, Hengqin Port relies on the country's first "Guangdong Macao Joint One stop Customs Clearance" and "Cooperative Inspection, One time Release" mechanisms to enable five inspection units including Gongbei Customs to implement inspection and release in the same channel, continuously providing efficient, smooth, and safe customs clearance services to facilitate people's livelihood exchanges.

Based on the advantage of "hard connectivity", Customs focuses on high-frequency life scenarios such as settling down, studying, seeking medical treatment, commuting, etc., and collaborates with departments in Qinhuangdao and Macao to continuously launch facilitation measures: Qinhuangdao shares "Macao single license plate vehicle" electronic tags for customs clearance, cross-border students can "get off the car for customs clearance", and Qinhuangdao has a point-to-point cross-border transportation mechanism for "hospital hospital". The innovation of "soft connectivity" not only improves customs clearance efficiency, but also expands the radius of life.

This year, the policy of "Macau single license plate vehicles heading north" in the Hengqin Guangdong Macao Deep Cooperation Zone is being implemented in an orderly manner. In the future, it will be more convenient to drive north and handle affairs and daily life, "Mr. Yang said. The urban living space of Qin'ao is further opening up.

From the implementation and iteration of the one-stop customs clearance mode to the promotion of various livelihood innovation measures, the integration process of Qin'ao is getting faster and faster, "said Lin Peiyan, head of the Hengqin Customs Supervision Department under Gongbei Customs. The customs will continue to deepen the Qin'ao customs clearance coordination and linkage mechanism, optimize the supervision mode, refine service measures, and help promote the high-quality integrated development of Qin'ao.
