New Trends in International Trade! On March 15th, Shishuo Electronics (Kunshan) Co., Ltd. in Kunshan Comprehensive Bonded Zone successfully completed customs clearance procedures for a batch of wearable device displays worth 910000 yuan imported by Shishuo Electronics (Kunshan) Co., Ltd. under the supervision of Kunshan Customs, and immediately put them into research and development use.
As one of the leading enterprises in the local electronic information industry, Shishuo Electronics (Kunshan) Co., Ltd. is mainly engaged in the research, development, manufacturing, and sales of mobile phones and digital audio coding equipment. "With the continuous development of new scenarios, new technologies, and new consumption, in order to ensure that our products maintain a competitive advantage in the future market, we quickly carry out pre research and development of forward-looking technologies such as hybrid reality MR, motion capture, and computer vision through bonded research and development business." said Li Su, the company's customs manager.
The reporter learned that bonded R&D refers to the comprehensive R&D business conducted by enterprises in the bonded area with tangible materials, reagents, consumables, and samples. Through bonded R&D business, Shishuo Electronics (Kunshan) Co., Ltd. utilizes the "first mover advantage" of pre research technology reserves on RF wireless spectrum, MLB circuit boards, and chassis components, making reliable performance testing of new headworn products successfully pass customer verification, helping enterprises win more market share in fierce competition while improving the technological content of traditional manufacturing technologies. According to Li Su, under the guidance of the customs, the bonded R&D business of enterprises has achieved rapid results, not only shortening the customs clearance time and providing more preferential funds, but also winning more orders from customers for mobile intelligent terminals.
With the transformation, upgrading, and innovative development of industries, more and more enterprises in the comprehensive bonded area of Jiangsu Province have generated higher value-added demand for new business forms such as research and development, testing, and maintenance. Recently, a batch of mobile phone motherboards worth 300000 US dollars were sent to Suzhou Changside Communication Technology Co., Ltd. located in the Wujiang Comprehensive Bonded Zone, and then exported overseas after being tested and repaired.
"Last February, the company officially settled in Wujiang Comprehensive Bonded Maintenance Zone to carry out bonded maintenance business within the national catalog," said Zhang Zhongzheng, General Manager of Suzhou Changside Communication Technology Co., Ltd, "At the beginning, the company mainly undertook mobile phone maintenance business, with a relatively single type of business. After tasting the benefits, the company actively expanded its business scope, expanding the types of maintenance products to notebook computers, cleaning robots, and other goods. The number of mobile phone brand providers for maintenance services has also increased by several."
In the first two months of this year, the international trade import and export value of Changside Communication Technology Co., Ltd. reached 15.98 million yuan, achieving a tangible "good start". "Bonded maintenance not only improves the efficiency of product maintenance and re export, simplifies procedures, but also reduces the company's operating costs," said Zhang Zhongzheng.
Data shows that new forms of foreign trade such as bonded research and development and bonded maintenance are "accelerating" their progress. In the first two months of this year, the import and export value of bonded R&D international trade under the supervision of Kunshan Customs alone reached 50.32 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 5.43%; In January-February, the import and export value of bonded maintenance international trade in Wujiang Comprehensive Bonded Zone exceeded 220 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 180 times.
In order to facilitate the rapid development of the "bonded+" new business format, the customs fully exerts its functional role, strengthening supervision and providing excellent services. Nanjing Customs actively constructs a clearing mechanism for enterprise issues using the "system+technology" approach, arranges business backbones to go to the enterprise site for business guidance, and helps enterprises make full use of bonded maintenance business policies. At the same time, in response to the complex and volatile characteristics of enterprise processes and materials consumption, a dedicated customs supervision account book for "bonded research and development" has been established to customize solutions for enterprises, solve the problem of inconsistent material consumption in research and development business, and promote the upgrading of international trade enterprises from traditional processing trade to a new business format of "manufacturing+technical services".
"The General Administration of Customs strongly supports the innovative development of the 'bonded+' business format, promotes the agglomeration of industries such as bonded research and development, assists in tackling key core technologies, and serves the self-reliance and self-reliance of science and technology." At the series of themed press conferences held by the State Administration of Foreign Affairs on March 20th, Sun Yuning, Deputy Director of the General Administration of Customs, also stated that he will take deepening the comprehensive reform of the comprehensive bonded zone as the entry point, innovate the customs regulatory model, and continuously optimize the business environment, Improve the sense of enterprise gain.
