The import and export container volume of Yiwu (Suxi) International Hub Port exceeds 200000 TEUs
On June 2nd, a sea rail intermodal train loaded with Yiwu small commodities departed from the customs supervision area of Yiwu (Suxi) International Hub Port, marking the port's cumulative import and export container volume exceeding 200000 TEUs since its opening on June 27, 2025.
As the first approved mixed mode autonomous driving test railway station in China, Yiwu (Suxi) International Hub Port is the first to pilot the sea rail multimodal transport business model in the country. By connecting cross departmental data links and breaking down barriers to segmented transportation, achieving "one-time declaration, full passage", the comprehensive logistics cost of a single container has been reduced by 20%. Since its opening, the cumulative value of exported goods under customs supervision has exceeded 13.5 billion yuan.
Previously, we mainly used road transportation to transport goods to the port, which was greatly affected by factors such as weather and traffic. Now, through railway transportation at the hub port, the delivery time is guaranteed and the transportation cost is significantly reduced, "said Wang Wenlong, manager of Yiwu Aomin Customs Declaration Agency Co., Ltd." In case of changes in the shipping schedule, we can directly use customs intelligent supervision equipment to automatically seal and seamlessly connect with road transportation on the site. It can operate 24 hours a day, efficiently and flexibly, allowing us to enjoy the benefits of the port while being inland
Behind efficient customs clearance is the continuous innovation of customs supervision mode. The person in charge of the comprehensive business department of Yiwu Customs under Hangzhou Customs introduced that relying on Yiwu (Suxi) International Hub Port, Yiwu Customs deepens the construction of smart customs. On the one hand, it builds a smart customs supervision application scenario and uses AI smart glasses to carry out auxiliary inspections, which can quickly identify foreign labels, categories, materials and other information of small commodities. Compared with traditional models, the inspection efficiency is improved by 20%. On the other hand, the first batch of national sea rail multimodal transport business model pilot projects have been launched, and smart customs and smart ports have been integrated to enable inland enterprises to truly enjoy port convenience.
Data shows that since the opening of the port, the freight volume of Yiwu (Suxi) International Hub Port has increased from 2 trains per day to a maximum of 7 trains per day. Yiwu Customs will continue to optimize the multimodal transport supervision mode, accurately respond to enterprise demands, promote the upgrading and improvement of port infrastructure and functions, explore the application of more intelligent equipment in customs supervision, effectively reduce customs clearance costs, and help promote the high-quality development of foreign trade.
