Since this year, Hangzhou Customs has optimized and improved the new mode of supervision over export prepackaged food by means of market procurement trade under the "three single codes and six systems" in response to the obstacles and difficulties reported by enterprises, implemented convenient centralized inspection in the warehouse of goods, and reduced the cost of customs clearance for international trade enterprises.

Recently, under the supervision of Yiwu Customs under the jurisdiction of Hangzhou Customs, Yiwu Ouan Trading Co., Ltd. declared a batch of condiments for export through market procurement trade, and after obtaining the electronic ledger issued by the customs, they will be sent abroad by sea.

According to statistics, since the promotion of the pilot work of pre packaged food export for market procurement trade in April 2020, the value of pre packaged food purchased for export in Yiwu market under the supervision of Yiwu Customs exceeded 200 million yuan, and the value of pre packaged food purchased for export in Yiwu market from January to August this year was 34.8115 million yuan.

Through the market procurement trade mode, enterprises can purchase goods in the identified market cluster area, and qualified operators will go through the export customs clearance formalities at the purchasing place, so that the export of prepackaged food is no longer limited to the food origin. The prepackaged food purchased in Yiwu Market Cluster can be inspected and exported at one time at the place of purchase with a more convenient way to achieve instant reporting and customs clearance.

Fu Yanhong, the person in charge of Zhejiang Kunpeng International Freight Forwarding Co., Ltd., said that since this year, the company has exported prepackaged food with a value of nearly 10 million yuan through market procurement trade, especially instant food, condiments and other products in the international trade market. "Now we can directly purchase and export instant noodles, beverages and other foods in Yiwu, greatly enriching the company's export product structure." Fu Yanhong said.

In order to promote the vigorous development of the international trade export of the pilot market procurement of prepackaged food, since this year, Hangzhou Customs has optimized and improved the new supervision mode of "three single codes and six systems" for the export of prepackaged food in the form of market procurement trade, implemented convenient centralized inspection in the warehouse, and reduced the time cost of customs clearance for international trade enterprises.
