on August 25, the barge "Fengfa 388" loaded with 46 domestic trade and 13 foreign trade containers set sail from the shipping terminal of Zhongshan port and sailed to Yantian port of Shenzhen in the mode of "domestic and foreign trade transportation on the same ship"
"During the epidemic period, the domestic and foreign trade transportation mode on the same ship has effectively alleviated the pain points of tight transport capacity and poor turnover of port barges, made it easier for us to arrange shipping shifts more reasonably and improve the efficiency of logistics operation. The company can save more than 4 million yuan of logistics cost every year." Zhongshan Huahui International Freight Forwarding Co., Ltd. Luo Guoguo said
in recent years, ports in Zhongshan have tried to" walk on two legs"while stabilizing foreign trade export shipping business , make efforts to the domestic market and actively develop domestic trade transportation business. The shipping lines between the inland ports of Zhongshan City and the hub ports of Shenzhen and Guangzhou are busy, and the demand of waterway transportation market is strong. However, due to different attributes, domestic and foreign trade goods need to be carried by different ships, and the utilization rate of shipping space is low. Under the mode of "domestic and foreign trade transportation on the same ship", after being filed by the customs, ships engaged in carrying goods under customs supervision can use the remaining space to carry domestic trade container goods at the same time, which greatly improves the space utilization rate of barges and saves transportation costs. The mode of "domestic and foreign trade transportation on the same ship" provides a convenient waterway transportation way for the efficient circulation or "going out" of Zhongshan goods in Dawan district
in order to actively promote the improvement of shipping efficiency, Zhongshan port customs under Gongbei Customs gives full play to the role of domestic and international double circulation link, optimizes the port business environment, and cooperates with local port departments to plan and promote the mode of "domestic and foreign trade transportation on the same ship", It has also established supporting regulatory schemes such as video monitoring of regulatory sites, zoning and stockpiling, superimposed customs clearance facilitation services such as "sharing of domestic and foreign trade berths", and helped ports in Zhongshan City successively open four same ship transportation routes, including "Zhongshan port Shekou port", "Zhongshan port Yantian Port", "Shenwan port Shekou port" and "Xiaolan port Yantian Port", covering six ports
according to statistics, 37600 standard containers have been transferred under this mode in two years since Zhongshan water transport port officially launched the same vessel transportation business of domestic and foreign trade containers in 2019
