A dedicated Belt and Road lane was officially put into use at Xiamen Gaoqi International Airport in Fujian province on April 28.
The National Immigration Administration has set up Belt and Road lanes in 18 immigration inspection checkpoints, including the one in Xiamen Airport, in order to streamline inspection procedures for people involved in key construction projects, partnerships, meetings and activities related to the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI).
Xiamen Airport is one of the busiest single-runway airports in the world. It operates direct flights to eight countries involved in the BRI, including the Republic of Korea, Singapore, the Philippines, and Malaysia, as well as 12 passenger routes and one freight route to Russia.
Xiamen Airport ranks among the highest in China and first in Fujian province in terms of the number of routes it offers and entry-exit traffic.
China has launched a new pilot program to allow eligible enterprises greater access to overseas financing in support of green and low-carbon transformation projects, the country's foreign exchange regulator said on Aug 21.
To further streamline the experience, China is expanding tax refund stores, broadening the range of refundable goods, and refining refund procedures, ensuring an efficient and seamless shopping experience for global visitors.
