Cars have gained more confidence in crossing mountains and seas

Recently, at the dock of Wuhu Port, 332 Chery cars will "board the ship and set sail" from here. After about two months of sailing, they will arrive in Belgium.

Water transportation is the main form of export transportation for Chery Automobile, and 80% of our new energy vehicles are exported through Wuhu Port, "said Li Jiebin, Director of Resource Management Department of Chery Automobile Co., Ltd. International Company. In the past, when exporting cars overseas, they had to first be transported by road to Yangshan Port in Shanghai, and then changed ships to go abroad. Not only is the transportation cost high, but the customs clearance procedures are also relatively cumbersome.

Thanks to the new mode of customs supervision, exported cars complete customs declaration and inspection at inland ports, and then directly arrive at Yangshan Port for shipment and exit through dedicated barges. This way, cars can not only directly 'sail' from Wuhu, but also save an average of about 150 yuan in logistics costs per car, "said Li Jiebin.

The "new model" mentioned by Li Jiebin is an important measure launched by the customs to support regional coordinated development innovation - the "linkage unloading" supervision model of the river sea one port connection. This model combines the economic "water to water transfer" transportation mode with convenient customs clearance policies, treating Wuhu Port as the unloading destination of Yangshan Port in Shanghai, implementing overall supervision of "linked unloading, treated as one port", eliminating customs clearance procedures such as enterprise transfer declaration and secondary arrival, and reducing the average transfer transportation time by 50% and logistics costs by 30%.

With the continuous popularization of the 'linkage unloading' supervision mode, more and more container goods in the Yangtze River Delta region are 'abandoning land and changing to water'. Under the promotion of the 'linkage unloading' mode, the advantages of the dense water network and numerous ports in the Yangtze River Delta region are fully released, and the integration of ports in the Yangtze River Delta presents a trend of deep integration. "Xian Yufei, Deputy Director of Wuhu Customs under Hefei Customs, said," Not long ago, the 'linkage unloading' supervision mode was selected as the 'best case' in the national pilot free trade zone

The open development of the automotive industry requires both policy "soft power" and "hard support" from logistics channels.

Not long ago, at the customs supervision place of Wuhu International Inland Port, a Central Asia train full of 180 domestic cars set off with a whistle, and this train will leave Khorgos Port for Uzbekistan. Watching the train gradually move away, He Da, the head of the Wuhu Customs Monitoring Department, returned to the office and entered the data information of the cars that had just been inspected into the system. Half a year ago, the place where he inspected his work was still at Zhujiaqiao Pier, which was more than ten kilometers away. At that time, there were only two ways for car exports in Wuhu: water transportation and road transportation.

The eastward sea outlet has been opened up, and the westward logistics hub is also constantly unblocked. On March 25th, the Wuhu International Land Port China Europe and Central Asia freight trains made their "double debut"; On May 8th, Wuhu City launched the first Central Asia train through the "Railway Express" mode for customs clearance; On June 11th, the first new mode of multimodal transportation for exported goods in Anhui Province was launched here. Nowadays, the Wuhu China Europe and Central Asia freight trains have launched 10 international routes, covering 4 countries and 14 station cities.

Through modes such as' multimodal transport 'and' railway express', the train realizes real-time transmission of logistics information throughout the entire process and 'one customs declaration' and 'one customs supervision' at the declaration location, greatly reducing transportation time and improving customs clearance efficiency. "He Da said," We follow up and streamline the declaration process, authorize the manifest transmission person, merge and review the manifest, and based on the characteristics of the export goods of the China Europe and Central Asia trains, we formulate a cargo supervision plan in advance, combined with convenient measures such as' appointment clearance 'and' early declaration ', to ensure efficient and one-stop customs clearance of export goods

Data shows that in the first 10 months of this year, Wuhu City exported 742000 cars, a year-on-year increase of 22.9%. Next, we will continue to optimize the business environment, innovate regulatory models, fully support the construction of large platforms, channels, and customs clearance for opening up to the outside world, and help domestic cars navigate the world smoothly, "said Xianyufei.
