Data released by the Chinese National Immigration Administration shows that in the first half of this year, the number of foreign nationals entering and exiting the country through all ports reached 38.053 million, an increase of 30.2% year-on-year. In order to improve the customs clearance experience for foreign nationals entering the country, ports such as Beijing, Hangzhou, and Guangzhou have implemented a series of convenience measures. Beijing Capital International Airport and Beijing Daxing International Airport have adopted a "dual-line inspection" model, increased law enforcement personnel and inspection channels, and improved the customs clearance efficiency for foreign nationals by about 30%. Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport has introduced intelligent humanoid robots and self-service terminals for foreign nationals to complete entry registration cards, reducing clearance time. Guangzhou Baiyun Airport has launched 15 convenience measures, set up a dedicated channel for the Canton Fair, provide efficient entry services for exhibitors, and deploy AI intelligent interaction platforms and AR customs clearance guides to enhance the intelligence level of customs clearance.
