Durata port exported used cars in the form of Chinese cage cars for the first time
On March 10, a Chinese cage car loaded with used cars, driven by a Chinese driver, left China, marking the first time for a Chinese driver to leave China at Durata Port in Xinjiang Province, adding a new mode of used car export at Durata Port. The cage car was loaded with 6 domestic BYD vehicles for export declaration at Durata port and headed for Kolyzat port in Kazakhstan.
In the past, car exports were loaded into containers, which could only hold 2-4 cars per container. Or the domestic driver will drive the car to the country of China and then in the way of overseas change (" point to point ") by the Kazakh cage car departure. The direct departure of Chinese cage cars from the mode of transport, not only improves the transport efficiency, save time, but also greatly alleviates the difficulty of foreign cage cars.
"Now it is difficult to obtain a car of foreign cage cars, and the price is relatively high. The customs officers realized the large demand for our export of used cars, and quickly gave us business guidance. At that time, the export time limit of loading used cars with domestic cage cars was imminent, and we saw that the data of the cargo list kept being returned. Compared with the previous overseas caged vehicles, the domestic caged vehicles transport used car mode saves nearly $2,000 in transportation costs per car, "said Hu Bin, director of Essent.
Since the caged vehicle is a longer and wider vehicle, the customs docking logistics and customs declaration enterprises in advance, timely solve the problems encountered in business handling, constantly optimize and improve the used car carrying caged vehicles exit customs clearance process, refine the supervision procedures, ensure the efficient connection of all links such as manifest and release, and realize the rapid exit customs clearance of caged vehicles.
Several Measures for the Autonomous Region to Support the Stable Development of Foreign Trade have been issued recently. It is proposed to guide the foreign trade innovation platform to play a role, expand the scale of second-hand car export in Yili Prefecture, strengthen the business guidance of second-hand car export enterprises, and actively publicize the customs supervision policies and market access requirements of neighboring countries. Guo Jinyu, deputy chief of Durata Customs Supervision Department, said, "We will take the initiative to organically combine customs clearance supervision with warehousing and logistics process, optimize the customs clearance mode of used cars, expand the export scale of used cars, unjam the export channels of used cars, seize the golden period of used car export at the port, make every effort to realize the export of needed cars, quickly handle and quickly export, and ensure the steady growth of foreign trade at the port."
