Xinhua News Agency Client, Shanghai, April 17 (Yang Kai, Huang Bo) At present, Shanghai's epidemic prevention and control has entered a critical stage of continuous attack and decisive battle.
In order to ensure the smooth transportation and logistics, ensure the normal operation of the city's core functions, and facilitate the smooth customs clearance of Shanghai, the world's largest international trade port, the Shanghai General Inspection Station has launched the wartime service mode, deploying more than 800 police forces to fight the epidemic at the port and ensure transportation. Freighters carrying anti-epidemic materials and civilian materials have opened up "fast lanes" for border inspection and inspection, providing electronic customs clearance guarantee measures for international cargo flights, ensuring the safety and stability of the industrial chain and supply chain, and helping Shanghai continue to play a "domestic circulation center" during special periods. Nodes, domestic and international dual-cycle strategic links" play an important role.
Set up "fast lanes", and "zero waiting" for civil materials clearance
Under the epidemic, the demand for civilian materials such as grain, oil and natural gas in Shanghai is strong.
The Shanghai sea inspection authority actively implements the 16 new measures of the National Immigration Administration to promote the development of shipping enterprises, and opens a "fast lane" for border inspection and inspection of ships carrying imported grain, oil, fruit, liquefied natural gas and other civilian materials and anti-epidemic materials. , through the front-line service, compressed customs clearance time and other measures, to help multiple batches of people's living materials to clear customs safely and efficiently.
At noon on April 1, the Malaysian LNG (liquefied natural gas) carrier Guanghui Karma slowly berthed at the LNG terminal of Yangshan Port. In order to ensure the safe and efficient handling of the Guanghui Karma, the Yangshan Border Inspection Station opened the side inspection and inspection. The "fast lane", while strict epidemic prevention and control measures, optimizes the customs clearance process, and handles entry inspection procedures efficiently, effectively guaranteeing the "zero wait" for this round of customs clearance.

"Online Inspection Application" and "Paperless Inspection" Help the Chemical Industry Chain Supply Chain Eliminate Blockages and Ensure Smoothness
As one of the largest chemical parks in the country, Shanghai Chemical Industry Park is a national petrochemical professional development zone with the largest number of internationally renowned multinational chemical companies, the most advanced level of circular economy and the highest industrial energy level.
For a long time, the steady supply of imported chemical raw materials has played an important basic role in the normal operation of the upstream and downstream industrial chains of the chemical industry zone.
On March 28, Shanghai launched a new round of nucleic acid screening and regional control measures. Some shipping agency companies at Jinshan Port encountered problems such as difficulty in travel for agents and difficulty in on-site declaration. The entry and exit procedures for foreign trade ships and crew members were temporarily blocked. The unloading of raw materials and other goods is indirectly affected.
How to solve the urgent need?
Jinshan Border Inspection Station adjusts its service mode in a timely manner, unblocks the online inspection application channels, and adopts two-person verification, paperless inspection and other methods to quickly go through the border inspection procedures for entry and exit ships.
At the same time, the station makes full use of electronic platforms such as AIS system, video surveillance, and China border inspection boarding code to strengthen online supervision, so as to grasp the dynamics of entry and exit (port) ships and the supervision of restricted areas of ports in real time, so as to ensure the safe and normal loading and unloading of ships.
Since the start of closure and control management in Shanghai, as of April 15, the station has handled more than 70 entry-exit (port) ships and inspected more than 1,100 crew members through methods such as "online inspection application" and "paperless inspection". While ensuring that the ship can start working as soon as it arrives at the port, it has facilitated the smooth customs clearance of more than 110,000 tons of imported chemical raw materials such as ethylene, liquid ammonia, and paraxylene, more than 55,400 tons of imported industrial salt, and more than 130,000 tons of imported thermal coal. During the epidemic, the efficient operation of energy, chemical raw materials and upstream and downstream industrial chains provided a steady stream of power.
Technological customs clearance combination measures escort international cargo flights
As the world's top three international air cargo hub, Pudong International Airport's cargo route network covers 251 destinations in 48 countries and regions around the world.
In the context of the shortage of shipping resources caused by the global epidemic, Pudong Airport once took on more than 40% of the inbound and outbound cargo volume of airports in China, especially the protection of electronic products and parts, photoresist, medicine and other high-end, high-end The transportation of value-added materials not only maintains the stability of core key industries and foreign trade supply chains, but also plays an important role in the global fight against the new crown epidemic.
Entering 2022, Pudong Airport’s international cargo aircraft logistics and transportation continued to operate at a high level. In the first quarter, the number of side inspections reached 20,235, which was 2.4 times that before the outbreak (2019).
At present, although the number of inbound and outbound cargo flights at Pudong Airport has been reduced due to the impact of the epidemic, it still maintains the development tenacity of more than 100 flights per day, providing strong support for the smooth flow of Shanghai and the world economic chain.
At 19:00 on April 11, flight CK228 carrying medical supplies such as medical accessories, connectors, valve accessories, etc., slowly arrived at the apron 328 of Pudong Airport.
Before the arrival of the plane, the flight agents have completed the declaration of information such as the carrying situation of the cargo plane personnel and the arrival and departure of the flight through the "Single Window Frontier Inspection Aircraft Declaration Platform" provided by the border inspection authority.
After the plane docked, the border inspection police quickly boarded the plane, checked witnesses, and checked the cabin without contact. The border inspection procedures for the flight were completed in less than 10 minutes.
The "Single Window" electronic declaration platform is 24-hour "accompanied by application", the wireless mobile vehicle inspection and release vehicle is "operated at any time", and the 24-hour duty inspection window is "operated at any time"... Shanghai Airport Border Inspection Station continues to optimize "cargo aircraft" The risk level management system + single-window electronic declaration platform + wireless mobile inspection and release vehicle + life detection instrument” technology clearance combination measures to achieve “less errands” for crew members and “fast loading and unloading” for cargo flights.
This move saves an average of 40 minutes of customs clearance time for cargo airlines, effectively improving the punctuality rate of cargo flights and the efficiency of international cargo transfer.
According to statistics, since March 27, Shanghai sea inspection agencies have inspected more than 54,400 people entering and leaving the country, more than 2,200 entry-exit aircraft, and more than 1,800 international sailing ships. Guarantee supply chain work.
