The measures to reform the whole range of customs clearance operations will focus on further reducing overall clearance times and optimizing the clearance process.

Port charges will be regulated and better supervised, while a number of departments will cooperate to realize sharing of administrative punishment information dissemination about illegal price behavior undertaken by any port fee-charging enterprises.

Intelligent facilities and a new administrative approval mechanism will be applied to cut red tape.

To improve the inland port's services, measures were issued to boost the development of commercial credit and that of customs certification services for businesses.

In addition, measures were also announced to deepen cooperation in customs clearances for areas along the Yellow River.
