China pressing on with TIR implementation
The General Administration of Customs of China (GACC) has taken the momentous decision to fully open all its checkpoints to international road transport under TIR as from 25 June 2019, according to the International Road Union (IRU).
During a meeting between the IRU and GACC, the two sides agreed to jointly identify key checkpoints and trade routes vital to further unleashing TIR’s potential in China.
The decision was also taken that both parties would continue to promote full TIR digitalisation and multimodal TIR pilots in China, as well as to establish TIR electronic fast-track lanes at key customs points. (ben)
