Shanghai Customs Technical Center establishes key service point in Hongqiao

The Shanghai Customs Technical Center launched its core functional service point in the Hongqiao area on December 10 at the "CIIE 365" Enablement Exchange Forum held at the Shanghai IBP International Conference Center.

The forum aimed to foster deep integration between national-level customs technical resources and the strategic positioning of the Hongqiao Business District, providing solid technical support for enhancing regional trade facilitation and the regular services under the "CIIE 365" initiative.

At the event, the Administrative Committee of the Hongqiao Business District announced the operational launch of the Shanghai Customs Technical Center's core functions within the district. A comprehensive service point will be established in the core area of the Changning-Hongqiao Corporate Global Headquarters Cluster Zone.

This initiative leverages the technical authority and expertise of the Shanghai Customs Technical Center in inspection and testing. It is expected to significantly improve trade predictability, reduce institutional transaction costs, and provide enterprises with one-stop professional technical services "at their doorstep." By combining this with the existing strengths of the Changning-Hongqiao Corporate Global Headquarters Cluster Zone, it will optimize cross-border data service capabilities, amplify the spillover effects of the China International Import Expo, and jointly build an efficient and coordinated international trade service ecosystem.

During the forum, various customs departments shared insights on current trade trends and development opportunities in the inspection, testing, and certification industry, as well as practical information on consumer goods clearance and commodity inspection under the new landscape.

This year, Changning District has accelerated the development of the influential and radiation abilities of the Hongqiao Corporate Global Headquarters Cluster Zone, aiming to help enterprises enhance their international competitiveness within global industrial and supply chain layouts. It is also actively building the Shanghai Comprehensive Service Platform for Enterprises to Go Global  (Changning Branch). This platform integrates government services and professional market services, operating through both online and offline channels to provide enterprises with one-stop, full-chain support for their global expansion.
