China Science and Technology Network: Smart supervision enables imported honey to 'fast in and stable out'

Recently, when the reporter walked into the cross-border e-commerce bonded warehouse in Ningbo Free Trade Zone, a busy scene came into view. On the towering three-dimensional shelves, there is a dazzling array of honey products from New Zealand, Australia, and other places; The automated sorting line runs at high speed, and the intelligent four-way shuttle machine flexibly travels between storage locations. The AGV transport car travels smoothly back and forth, and each honey gift box package is quickly sorted by the intelligent assembly line and headed straight to the packaging area for delivery to the whole country.
In recent years, consumers' demand for high-quality imported food has continued to rise, and honey has become a popular choice for Spring Festival goods because it symbolizes' sweetness and honey ', "said Shi Ming, the customs manager of Ningbo Fuli Logistics Co., Ltd., pointing to the neatly arranged goods." We started Spring Festival stocking in early December last year, and currently there is sufficient honey stock in the warehouse to meet the upcoming sales peak
The sweet expectations of consumers are testing the customs clearance supervision and service guarantee capabilities. Ningbo Customs uses smart supervision as a lever, using a combination of "speed up+security+excellent service" to ensure that imported honey is "fast in and stable out".
The cross-border package of imported honey completed the system's automatic review and immediate release in less than 1 second as soon as it was declared out of the area. This is thanks to Ningbo Customs' pioneering embedded supervision model for cross-border e-commerce online shopping bonded imported packages leaving the area. Uncontrolled packages have achieved "no sensory inspection and release" on the sorting line, truly achieving "immediate packaging and immediate exit from the area". With the 24-hour operation of the "Intelligent Customs Declaration Hall" and the "Intelligent Station" mini program, enterprises can handle document declaration, handover and other procedures 24/7, and the customs clearance process is "zero delay", effectively ensuring the "acceleration" delivery of annual packages.
Along with the acceleration of customs clearance, regulatory efficiency has also been upgraded simultaneously. Ningbo Customs innovatively applies the "Food Safety Risk Assessment Model 3.0" to construct a three-dimensional risk assessment system of "country product project", dynamically analyzes and detects key indicators, and implements targeted measures to achieve early risk disposal. At the same time, Ningbo Customs took the lead in establishing the country's first "Cross border E-commerce Online Shopping Imported Food Quality Control Alliance", bringing together 15 leading enterprises such as Tmall Global, JD.com, and Dewu, covering the entire chain of e-commerce, warehousing, and testing, forming a new collaborative governance model of "customs supervision+enterprise self-discipline+industry co governance".
In response to the peak stocking period before the Spring Festival, Ningbo Customs relies on the "Qinqing Direct Express • Enterprise Demand Customs Response" mechanism to assist enterprise development, proactively provides front-line services, connects with enterprise needs, and through on-site visits to cross-border e-commerce enterprises in the jurisdiction, accurately grasps stocking plans and promotion arrangements, and predicts business peak periods. Tailor a customs clearance guarantee plan based on the actual situation of the enterprise, guide the enterprise to make full use of customs facilitation policies such as "advance declaration" and "tax payment summary", break through supply chain bottlenecks, and ensure that the annual inventory is "sufficient in quantity and stable in price".
The professional guidance and efficient service of customs give us more confidence in stocking up, "said Shi Ming. With the convenience policy of customs, enterprise inventory planning is more accurate, and even if orders surge, we can handle them calmly, ensuring that every bottle of imported honey is safely and quickly delivered to consumers.
