BEIJING, Sept. 18 -- China will roll out new measures including cutting customs clearance time, streamlining port services and improving the export tax rebate policy to increase opening up and facilitate the steady growth of foreign trade, the State Council's executive meeting chaired by Premier Li Keqiang decided on Tuesday.
Premier Li Keqiang also stressed the imperative for further opening up when meeting the press earlier this year after the National People's Congress.
"The growth of foreign trade directly bears on boosting economic growth and upgrading domestic consumption. It is important to further improve current policies regarding export tax rebate and financial services," Li said.
The meeting has made the following decisions:
First, to advance trade facilitation, this year will see further steps to shorten the overall time for both import and export customs clearance and reduce the number of documents required for customs clearance by another one-third.
The cost of customs clearance will also be further cut. In principle, companies will be able to get the customs clearance documents processed online and go through verification at ports.
Further progress will be made to realize one-time joint inspection by customs, border control and maritime safety authorities. The list of government administrative charges at ports will be released before the end of the year. No charges beyond the list should be collected.
