Intelligent document review by Tianjin Xingang Customs creates a new paradigm for customs clearance


In the early morning, the computer screen in the document review office of Tianjin Xingang Customs lit up with the pending prompt of the intelligent document review system - this is the import goods data declared 72 hours in advance by Tianjin Shengwei International Trade Co., Ltd., which is being synchronized to the document review backend waiting for pre-approval.

At the same time, in the office of Tianjin Shengwei International Trade Co., Ltd., the person in charge, Li Tianchang, clicked the mouse to complete the import goods declaration operation. In just a few minutes, the intelligent document review system completed the pre review form processing.

Li Tianchang recalled his past customs clearance experience: "The declaration requirements for different categories of goods are different. Just sorting out documents takes a lot of time, and key information such as product codes and certificates of origin need to be repeatedly checked, fearing that filling in the wrong data will affect customs clearance

Now with the help of the front-end guidance system of the intelligent document review system, the problem of the declaration process has been solved - the system will automatically pop up the declaration element guidance based on the product category, clarify the required fields and benefit proof materials. In addition, with the efficient support of the intelligent document review system, the efficiency of the review process has been improved. Last month, we declared a batch of imported goods, and the front-end system accurately prompted the benefit requirements. After the declaration was completed, the intelligent document review system completed the preprocessing in a few minutes, and the entire customs clearance process was more than twice as fast as before

As the core driver of the construction of "smart customs", Tianjin Customs has carefully crafted an intelligent document review system. This model is guided by enterprise needs and supported by technological innovation, building a full chain customs clearance service system with "convenient declaration, intelligent review, and precise supervision", achieving a dual upgrade of regulatory efficiency and service quality. In response to the pain points of inaccurate policy grasp and complex document verification strongly reflected by enterprises, Tianjin Customs has established a special technical team to develop an intelligent document review system, which is accompanied by front-end guidance for declaration, providing accurate declaration assistance for enterprises, and using hardcore technology to solve the problems of low efficiency, high regulatory pressure, and difficult risk identification of traditional manual document review.

The intelligent document review system deeply integrates cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, natural language processing, and image recognition to build a fully automated document review system that includes document parsing, information comparison, risk screening, and intelligent prompts.

Traditional manual document review requires document reviewers to cross check the declaration information and accompanying documents line by line, "said Liu Zhangjie from the Import Clearance Department of Tianjin Xingang Customs." Our developed intelligent document review system is like an 'AI document reviewer', which can accurately 'understand' various accompanying documents such as customs declarations, commercial invoices, health certificates, and certificates of origin. It automatically extracts key information such as overseas production registration enterprise numbers, production dates, batches, quantities, and places of origin, and then uses natural language processing technology to understand the meaning of the information, compare it with the declaration data in all aspects, and focus on the core review process to achieve efficient and accurate supervision. ”

Data is the most powerful proof. Since the launch of the intelligent document review system, the manual review time of Tianjin Xingang Customs has been reduced from 15 minutes to 5 minutes for single bills that meet the conditions for review, a year-on-year reduction of 60%. The review efficiency has increased by more than three times compared to the traditional mode, and the system's accuracy in identifying common declaration errors has reached over 90%. As of now, we have served over 2000 import and export business units, covering multiple fields such as meat products, aquatic products, and animal and plant products. We have processed more than 70000 customs declarations, effectively reducing the burden and increasing efficiency for enterprises, and stimulating the vitality of foreign trade market entities.
