At the beginning of the new year, the first 400000 ton iron ore ship from Zhanjiang Port slowly sailed into berth 601 of Zhanjiang Port, with its huge hull breaking through the sea and leaving sparkling waves at the dock. The officers of Xiashan Customs, a subsidiary of Zhanjiang Customs, are using an intelligent inspection and supervision system to monitor ship dynamics in real time, verify cargo information, and safeguard the rapid clearance of national strategic resources, smoothly ushering in a good start to serving foreign trade in the first year of the 15th Five Year Plan.

This batch of iron ore is at the critical moment of our production and material preparation before the New Year, it's really a big help! "Said Deng Guofei, a salesperson at Zhanjiang Zhongyuan Shipping Logistics Co., Ltd." Before, we used to keep an eye on the shipping schedule and calculate the time every day, afraid of missing the material preparation deadline. Now that the raw materials have been transported steadily to the factory area, this big stone in my heart has finally fallen to the ground

It is understood that the 400000 ton iron ore ship has a large cargo capacity and high loading and unloading efficiency requirements, and its customs clearance efficiency directly affects port logistics turnover and enterprise production rhythm. In order to improve the efficiency of customs clearance for bulk resource commodities, Xiashan Customs closely adheres to the requirements of modernization of customs work during the "15th Five Year Plan" period, based on the positioning of Zhanjiang Port as a transit hub for bulk resource commodities in the southwest region, comprehensively promotes the replication and promotion of the "Smart Inspection - Supervision of Bulk Resource Commodities (Iron Ore)" business scenario, and realizes the intelligent, efficient, and precise inspection and supervision of imported iron ore.

The staff will coordinate with shipping companies, ports, and import enterprises in advance to accurately grasp key information such as ship arrival time, cargo volume, and cargo quality, and tailor customs clearance guarantee plans; Simultaneously utilizing intelligent inspection systems to replace traditional manual inspections, achieving rapid detection and real-time data transmission of indicators such as cargo quality, solid waste, and radioactivity, significantly reducing inspection time. The smooth clearance of the first 400000 ton iron ore ship this year is a vivid practice of Xiashan Customs to empower supervision with technology and promote development with services.

Next, Xiashan Customs will continue to deepen the construction of "smart inspection", closely adhere to the requirements of national strategic resource security and smart customs construction during the "15th Five Year Plan" period, promote the full coverage of the intelligent inspection system for imported iron ore at Zhanjiang Port, further create a seamless customs clearance experience of "immediate unloading and simultaneous inspection", ensure the safe and stable supply of bulk cargo such as iron ore in the port area, and contribute customs strength to the high-quality development of local port industries and the service of domestic and international dual circulation.
