On June 1, Liuzhou Customs successfully issued the city’s first China-Malaysia electronic certificate of origin. The export goods data of an auto parts company was transmitted to Malaysian Customs in real time through the customs system.
This marks that Liuzhou has launched a new customs clearance model of “online declaration, instant review, and cross-border instant transmission” for cross-border trade with Malaysia.
The “China-Malaysia Electronic Information Exchange System for Origin” was launched online. It is the third customs electronic networking channel for origin established by my country in ASEAN.
Enterprises rely on the China Customs Origin Service Platform to submit applications online, and the customs reviews and issues the entire process online, which solves the pain points of traditional paper certificates, shortens customs clearance time, and reduces enterprise costs.
