As the fourth busiest container port in the world, Yantian Port undertakes more than 1 / 3 of the foreign trade import and export of Guangdong Province and is the main channel of foreign trade in South China.

We know that Yantian Port has been seriously impacted by the May 21 epidemic, and the serious decline in throughput has led to the serious accumulation of goods in the port.

However, through the unremitting efforts of the government, the epidemic situation has been basically controlled, and the operation of Yantian Port has been fully restored at the end of June. 

The throughput has been rising, reaching 47800 TEUs so far. At present, there are more than 40 cargo ships operating at the wharf.

At the same time, Yantian District government has also taken a series of measures to reduce port congestion. 

For example, the arrival time of goods declared in advance by the customs shall be extended to 7 days, and the customs clearance formalities shall be handled in the integrated mode of customs clearance. 

This greatly improves the efficiency of operation and solves the problem of enterprise customs clearance.

The following is a practical case. In early July, a batch of barreled lithium battery electrolyte arrived at the container terminal of Yantian port. 

The whole process from passing through the gate to getting on board took less than three hours. Some people said that it might have taken more than two days in the past.

At the same time, the port official said that the number of certificates to be verified was reduced from 85 to 40, which greatly improved the efficiency of cargo customs clearance.

It not only improves the efficiency of goods, but also reduces the time for trucks to enter the gate.

In the past, it took nearly 15 hours for trucks to pass through the gate, but now it takes less than 30 minutes, thanks to the "reservation system" launched by Yantian District government, which can greatly alleviate road congestion.

A number of new routes have been added this year to accelerate the development of Yantian port

As an important fortress connecting domestic and international, Yantian Port added three new American routes in June this year, with a total of more than 20 new international routes this year.

The increasing number of routes covers the global route network. This will effectively alleviate the shortage of empty container resources, accelerate the circulation of marine goods, and consolidate the route advantages of Yantian Port as an international shipping hub.

Looking forward to the future of Yantian port, it will make an important contribution to Global trade and global freight.
