Authorities in 12 mainland cities, provinces and autonomous regions have signed a memorandum of co-operation to simplify trans-regional customs clearance.

Participating in the initiative are the governments of Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi, Henan, Shaanxi, Xinjiang, Ningxia, Gansu, Sichuan, Qinghai and Inner Mongolia.

Authorities in these regions have agreed to promote closer ties between customs offices at sea ports, land borders and in inland areas to offer one-stop online customs clearance and intermodal transport services to facilitate trade.
