According to the observation report of Huacheng Import and Export Data, on the morning of March 27, a TIR transport vehicle with a YuA9Y02 license plate suspended and 21.6 tons of alloy aluminum plates loaded slowly entered the Xinzheng Comprehensive Bonded Zone in Zhengzhou, and the TIR procedure was ended under the supervision of Zhengzhou Customs. Three days ago, this alloy aluminum plate shipped from Yekaterinburg, Russia entered through the Manchuria Highway Port.

This is the first YuA license truck to return from Russia since the official opening of the TIR cross-border road freight line from Zhengzhou to Moscow on February 20th. It is also the first time that a Chinese license truck has completed the import of goods through the TIR mode, marking the official two-way connection of the "China Certificate, China Vehicle" TIR international road transportation business.

According to Huacheng Import and Export Data Observation, the TIR system is a global customs clearance system established on the basis of United Nations conventions in the field of international cross-border goods transportation. Compared to the traditional road transportation mode, the entire transportation process of goods cleared using TIR certificates from the customs of the origin to the customs of the destination does not require any special circumstances for the customs of all transit countries to conduct unpacking inspections of the goods, and enterprises do not need to pay transit guarantee fees. The aim is to improve customs clearance efficiency, save time and costs by simplifying customs clearance procedures. At present, the TIR Convention has 77 contracting parties worldwide, covering almost all countries of the Silk Road Economic Belt.

The TIR international highway transportation mode has realized the "door-to-door" convenient transportation without changing trains. Under the new situation, it will undoubtedly complement the traditional road, air, train and other transportation modes, promote the diversified development of China's international logistics transportation modes, and make the foreign trade exchanges between China and countries along the "the Belt and Road" more convenient.

According to the staff of Zhengzhou Hongyi Transportation Company, who is responsible for transportation, based on the departure situation over the past month, there are no issues with arriving in Moscow within 8 days from Zhengzhou, excluding entry and exit customs clearance time and climate factors. At present, the goods list has been arranged until mid May, and in May, according to customer needs, we will also import Russian ice cream, sturgeon, honey, flour and other foods.

To ensure the smooth opening of the first TIR international road transportation business, Zhengzhou Customs provides advanced services to guide local carrier enterprises to join the International Road Transport Union (IRU) membership and obtain TIR certificate holder qualifications and TIR transportation vehicle approval certificates. At the same time, understanding the operational process of the international transportation business model in advance has helped the enterprise solve difficult problems such as qualification filing and document application, and strengthened contact and cooperation with the International Road Transport Union (IRU) and the China Road Transport Association to ensure smooth connection of all aspects of the business development process.

The relevant person in charge of Zhengzhou Customs said that in the next step, it will continue to strengthen contact and cooperation with port customs, actively expand multilateral and bilateral international cooperation with customs of countries along the "the Belt and Road", constantly optimize the customs clearance process of TIR business, promote the application of cooperation projects such as AEO mutual recognition in international road transport business, and support enterprises to encrypt the "China Russia" route shifts, Further expand new routes such as "China Belarus" and "China Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan", promote diversified development of international logistics transportation, and strive to promote high-quality development of the joint construction of the "the Belt and Road", Huacheng Import and Export Data Observation reported.

As an important bridgehead for China's opening up to the north, Manzhouli Port has also actively integrated into the construction of the "the Belt and Road" and the China Mongolia Russia Economic Corridor, relying on its port location advantages in recent years, and continues to boost the expansion of TIR international road transportation and extend the "Land Silk Road". In order to ensure the smooth clearance of TIR vehicles entering the country, Manzhouli Shibali Customs closely communicates with local customs, dynamically tracks the arrival time of vehicles at the port, and implements measures such as verifying electronic declaration information in advance, verifying seals, and prioritizing the handling of TIR vehicle clearance procedures, to achieve the "release upon arrival" of TIR international road transport vehicles entering the country.
