Tax and foreign exchange policies have been applied to bonded zones, export processing zones and bonded logistics parks. Integration linkages have been achieved in bonded zones and ports. Among China’s bonded areas, the Qianhai Bay Bonded Port Area is a customs area under special supervision at the highest level, the most preferential policies, the most complete functions and the highest degree of openness. This has unique advantages in the development of international trade, logistics and supply chain management and high-end maritime services.
According to the “Reply of the State Council on Relevant Policies of Supporting the Development and Opening up of the Shenzhen Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Cooperation Zone”, Shenzhen Qianhai implements more special preferential policies than other special economic zones, including policies concerning finance, taxation, legal institutions, talents, education, health care and telecommunications. These policies specifically include exploring pilot cross-border loans, building a cross-border RMB business innovation pilot area, a 15% reduction in corporate income tax rate on qualified enterprises, giving appropriate subsidies to the personal income tax of overseas high-end talent and urgently-needed professionals who work in Qianhai and meet the Qianhai planning industrial development needs and other policies. Also, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Commerce set up integrated experimental units for Qianhai’s modern service industry development and gave financial support to Qianhai’s modern service industry innovation development.
Port Supervision
Customs, Inspection and Quarantine, and other port inspection units use more convenient customs clearance management models, including loosening first-line restrictions so that cargo in the area can be moved freely, rebating taxes upon the entry into the area, and electronic filing of import and export cargo between bonded port area and overseas destinations. Inspection and quarantine departments can conduct overseas cargo quarantine instead of inspection upon entry into the free trade port zone as currently required. According to the Overall Development Plan for the Qianhai Area, approved by the State Council, the Bonded Port Area can learn from current international practices and actively explore policy and institutional innovation in special customs supervision areas. It will draw on the general rules of international free trade zones and ports in the future to explore the construction of bonded port area with international competitiveness.
Antecedence and Foretaste
The Qianhai Cooperation Zone is an “Special Administrative Region of Special Administrative Region” with the important and history-making mission of exploration and guidance in further reform and opening in China’s new age. Adhering to institutional innovation and precedence, it will actively draw on international practices and sophisticated operating experience, giving full play to the unique role of Hong Kong in Qianhai’s opening up, so as to form a development pattern of industrial growth, economic integration and social inclusion under the cooperation framework between Guangdong and Hong Kong.
