The international cargo port of Zhuhai Airport remains busy in June. All cargo planes took off, sending cross-border e-commerce packages and high-end manufacturing products on the west bank of the the Pearl River to overseas. According to Doumen Customs, a subsidiary of Gongbei Customs, the port's freight volume reached 2000 tons in May this year, a month on month increase of 51.98%, setting a new historical high.

Since its temporary opening, Zhuhai Airport International Freight Port has seized the opportunity of the construction of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area and continuously accelerated and upgraded its freight business. The recent growth in cargo volume has been a leap forward, "said Xue Shuting, the person in charge of Zhuhai Jiaokong Airport Logistics Co., Ltd." Especially with the two routes facing Southeast Asia, the logistics efficiency between the western region of Zhuhai and Southeast Asia has been greatly shortened. Many local enterprises have shifted from 'going to Shenzhen and Guangzhou' to 'going to Zhuhai nearby'. "She revealed that with the stability of the routes and the improvement of market recognition, the cumulative cargo volume at the port has quietly exceeded 7500 tons.

In order to make the goods "fly" faster, Doumen Customs has embedded supervision into the entire logistics chain and launched an overtime guarantee mechanism in response to the "tidal" influx of cross-border e-commerce. The head of the shutdown supervision team, Zhou Jianhui, introduced, "By deepening the coordination and cooperation between ports and local customs, dynamically grasping the arrival and departure information of export goods, providing a '7 × 24 hour' customs clearance guarantee, e-commerce goods can be inspected and cleared conveniently at the airport

The efficient customs clearance mode, combined with the "land air intermodal transportation" mechanism, maximizes the seamless connection between every transit container and international flights, making Zhuhai Airport International Freight Port a "high-speed distribution center" for cross-border e-commerce exports on the west coast of the Pearl River Delta. Next, the customs will continue to optimize their services and assist in the high-quality development of the international cargo port at Zhuhai Airport. (Written by Li Yiying and Yang Yimeng)
