According to statistics from Gongbei Customs, in the first 11 months of this year, the total import and export value of Hengqin Guangdong Macao Deep Cooperation Zone (hereinafter referred to as "Hengqin Cooperation Zone") was 40.16 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 75.4%; The number of inbound and outbound personnel and vehicles at the "first line" Hengqin Port increased by 32.9% and 45.1% respectively year-on-year, while the number of vehicles released from the "second line" inspection area exceeded 19 million. The integration of people's livelihoods and industries is constantly accelerating.

The "Macau New Neighborhood" located on Hong Kong Macau Avenue is the first comprehensive livelihood project designed for Macau residents in Hengqin. Thanks to the innovative "one single multi core" online verification mode for imported drugs launched by Gongbei Customs, more than 100 types of Macau drugs can be directly delivered to the "Macau New Neighborhood" health station in Hengqin. You can buy familiar Macau medicines right at your doorstep, and your retirement life is very comfortable, "said Aunt Wang, a Macau resident who has settled in the" New Neighborhood of Macau ".

The quality of livelihood services continues to improve, and the connection between education is also smooth. The "Cross border Student Get Off Clearance" service covers 27 schools in Macau, achieving "zero waiting" for clearance. At present, about 30000 Macau residents are living and working in Hengqin, and the number of Macau students in Hengqin has increased by 63.9% year-on-year. Education, healthcare, and government services are gradually achieving seamless integration, and the "New Neighborhood of Macau" is transforming into a "New Home for Life".

In the Hengqin Cooperation Zone, both high-tech and modern financial industries are bursting with vitality. The first chip export processing and the first aircraft engine bonded leasing business have successively landed, highlighting the advantages of "Macau+Hengqin". Gongbei Customs provides "point-to-point" guidance to assist enterprises in expanding functional formats such as bonded processing, leasing, warehousing, and exhibition, supporting the landing of key industries. Nowadays, over 7400 Australian funded enterprises have taken root in Hengqin, driving a year-on-year increase of 14.6% in the added value of the "four new" industries. In the first 11 months of this year, the bonded import and export value of Hengqin Cooperation Zone increased by 47% year-on-year.

Over the past year, Gongbei Customs has continuously optimized its branch line management and signed multiple cooperation agreements with Macau, including the "One Code Pass" supervision of Macau's food exports to the mainland. The number of cross-border cooperation mechanisms has increased to 22. As of November this year, the total number of inbound and outbound personnel at Hengqin Port has reached the preset target of "annual cross-border clearance personnel" in the second phase of the overall development plan of Hengqin Cooperation Zone ahead of schedule. Gongbei Customs will continue to deepen institutional innovation, optimize regulatory services, prevent and resolve various risks, and make new contributions to writing a new chapter of "One Country, Two Systems" and promoting high-quality development of the Guangdong Hong Kong Macao Greater Bay Area.
