BEIJING, July 7 (Xinhua) — A truck fully loaded with export goods left Yiwu City, known as the “supermarket of the world”, for Tashkent on Saturday under the TIR (Transport International Road) system.

This event marked the emergence of the Yiwu-Central Asia freight road route within the TIR system, Zhongxinshe news agency reports.

TIR is an international system that simplifies the transportation of goods between countries. Within its framework, the goods are sealed at the starting point of the route and checked only upon arrival at the destination, and at intermediate border crossings, checkpoint officers only check the TIR carnet data and the customs stamp for the vehicle. This reduces the travel time and reduces possible risks associated with administrative customs control procedures and damage to the goods. China joined the TIR Convention in July 2016.

It is reported that the goods carried in this shipment were declared under the Yiwu Market Procurement Scheme combined with the TIR system, which provides SMEs with a cost-effective and flexible solution for exporting a wide range of products in small batches.

According to a responsible representative of International Landport Group, in the next stages, the company plans to attract more TIR-accredited shipping companies to Yiwu to actively help local logistics enterprises obtain TIR certificates, with the aim of continuously enhancing the city’s capacity to provide international logistics services. -0-
