China Council For The Promotion Of International Trade Assists Foreign Trade Companies In Improving Transportation Capacity

After the new crown pneumonia epidemic occurred, upstream and downstream enterprises in China's foreign trade industry chain faced uncertain factors such as supply chain and transportation, and the shipping and air transportation were affected by the epidemic. In order to do a good job in stabilizing foreign trade, CCPIT continuously expands its business areas and uses high-efficiency, low-cost, and mobile global customs clearance system (TIR system) to help foreign trade enterprises increase capacity.

At present, the CCPIT Commercial Certification Center cooperates with the International Road Transport Alliance East and Southeast Asia Representative Offices to conduct demand research and consulting services in the field of foreign trade, promote TIR transportation methods to Chinese import and export enterprises, and jointly create a "New Channel for Asia-Europe Logistics" and promote " The efficient docking of goods demand and high-quality transportation capacity of countries and regions along the “Asia-Europe New Corridor” will help the high-quality development of foreign trade, and provide more assistance to improve trade and customs facilitation in China and countries along the “Belt and Road”.

   The TIR system is based on the United Nations Convention on International Road Transport Customs (TIR Convention) and is the only global convenient customs clearance system in the field of cross-border cargo transportation. Authorized by the United Nations, the International Road Transport Union is responsible for managing the global operation of the TIR system. The TIR system facilitates international transportation and trade by simplifying customs procedures and improving customs efficiency. At present, TIR transportation is mainly based on road transportation, which is also applicable to multimodal transportation.

   At present, international road transportation has gradually resumed in the Alashankou of the Kazakhstan port, the Erlianhot port of the Mongolian port, and the Manzhouli port of Russia. Among them, the Alashankou port processed the first ticket to Europe's TIR business since the outbreak on February 27.
