It is reported that the new round of border closure operations mainly present the following characteristics: firstly, Pingtan Island is clearly defined as a customs supervision area for the first time, providing a basic basis for the application of more convenient customs supervision measures; secondly, it has shifted from "loosening at the front line" to "opening up at the front line", making the flow of people, goods, and commodities in and out more convenient, and further enhancing the level of opening up to the outside world; thirdly, the industrial orientation is more clear, combined with the construction of the international tourism island and the demand for opening up to the outside world, the list of duty-free goods that are not exempt at the front line and the list of goods not eligible for tax refunds at the second line are adjusted, further strengthening attractiveness for elements. Border closure does not mean island closure, but rather a move towards more openness. Currently, Pingtan's new round of border closure operations has entered the crucial stage, with all departments cooperating closely and providing proactive services, while work in the areas of policy, projects, and formats is being intensively promoted. In the next step, Pingtan will continue to promote projects such as the upgrading and renovation of the first and second line access channels to the island, and increase efforts to improve the quality of various hardware and software supporting facilities, comprehensively solidifying the foundation for the new round of border closure operations.
