Guangzhou Border Inspection launches 16 measures to protect the 140th Canton Fair

China News Service, Guangzhou, October 11 (Fang Weibin, Xu Xuyu) Reporters learned from the Guangzhou Immigration Inspection Station on the 11th that the station has launched 16 service guarantee measures to coordinate efforts in customs clearance, business, freight, security and other aspects to serve the 140th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair). The current Canton Fair will kick off in Guangzhou on October 15, coinciding with the 70th anniversary of its founding.

Focus on smooth clearance. Each travel inspection port has set up dedicated lanes for the Canton Fair, and Baiyun Airport has implemented separate and classified inspections for foreign passengers. Important foreign guest groups implement the "one group, one policy" policy, making appointments for customs clearance and group entry and exit. Baiyun Airport, Pazhou Passenger Port, Nansha Passenger Port and other ports have set up special 240-hour temporary entry permit application areas for foreigners to achieve "immediate processing and one-time processing", and Baiyun Airport has simultaneously opened appointment services. We will promote online filling of immigration cards and add assistance posts to ensure smooth and orderly passenger flow during peak times.

Focus on the business environment. The Guangzhou call center of the National Immigration Management Agency’s 12367 platform has launched the “Canton Fair Special Line” to provide round-the-clock multilingual consultation. There are 12367 service booths set up at the Canton Fair to accept face-to-face consultations. Baiyun Airport T2 and T3 terminals and Pazhou Passenger Port have set up fast-track collection and filing points to achieve "one-site filing and nationwide sharing". Establish a multilingual service team to provide translation guidance and eliminate language barriers.

Focus on the smooth flow of goods. To deepen the "come and go quickly" measures for cargo flights, Baiyun Airport has implemented 24-hour no-exit procedures for cargo crews in restricted areas. The port has opened a "green channel" for ships carrying exhibition goods, implemented "one ship, one policy", and is available around the clock. The border inspection administrative license "is issued in one place and applies to the whole province" to help foreign trade companies grab orders and reduce costs.

Focus on safety and security. Select document experts to conduct certificate identification training for exhibition volunteers, and organize key personnel to station at the exhibition to assist merchants in information verification and document processing. The port joint inspection units and local public security organs will be coordinated to carry out special rectifications to severely crack down on cross-border illegal and criminal activities related to exhibitions, and maintain the order of the exhibition and the legitimate rights and interests of merchants.
