Xiamen Port has added a new Southeast Asia shipping route. The Liberia-flagged vessel YANG MING docked at Hairun Terminal of Haicang Port Area on the morning of April 3 and departed later that day, marking the official launch of the "China-Singapore-Malaysia" (CSM) route.
The route will operate on a weekly fixed schedule, with each round trip taking 21 days. Connecting Xiamen, Kaohsiung, Shekou, Singapore, and Port Klang, the route forms a closed-loop corridor linking South China with Southeast Asia.
This will further expand the reach of Xiamen Port's shipping network and offer businesses more convenient logistics support as they tap into global markets.
China's latest departure tax refund measures will allow overseas visitors to obtain instant refunds across more regions and give them up to 28 days to leave the country, making multi-city trips easier and encouraging longer stays and greater spending.
Uruguay will grant visa-free entry to Chinese citizens.
