In the first quarter of 2026, Manzhouli’s cross-border e-commerce ushered in impressive growth, with trade volume exceeding 1.3 billion yuan, far exceeding the 1.148 billion yuan for the whole of 2025.
This leap in numbers is driven by a combination of policy and service coordination, infrastructure upgrades, and logistics channel expansion.
In terms of policy and service coordination, the Manzhouli Municipal Commerce Bureau has joined forces with customs and other departments to form a strong service synergy based on enterprise needs.
They efficiently completed procedures such as business registration and platform access, and opened up service congestion points.
Through activities such as “customs officials delivering policies to your doorstep” and “clearing corporate problems”, we guide companies to make full use of policy dividends and relieve financial pressure.
This kind of “nanny-style” service allows enterprises to complete registration on the same day with zero errands, greatly improving the efficiency of government services.
At the same time, the local government has accelerated the construction and operation of cross-border e-commerce supervision sites, continuously improved software and hardware infrastructure, and laid a solid foundation for industrial development, allowing enterprises to truly experience faster service and lower costs.
The Comprehensive Bonded Zone plays a core engine role in the development of cross-border e-commerce in Manzhouli.
From January to February this year, the total foreign trade import and export value of the Comprehensive Bonded Zone reached 2.29 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 1.5 times, accounting for 54% of the city’s total foreign trade value during the same period.
The customs has launched a set of efficient and convenient customs clearance services in the comprehensive bonded area.
We will fully implement advance declaration and appointment inspection, and open a special window for cross-border e-commerce services to achieve “instant arrival and quick inspection and release” of goods.
Relying on the smart supervision model of “Jinguan Phase II + Smart Checkpoint” and superimposing reforms such as “one ticket for multiple vehicles”, customs clearance efficiency has increased by 40%.
This makes the entry and exit of goods faster, and the capital turnover and market response speed of enterprises have achieved a qualitative leap. The comprehensive bonded zone has also become a magnet for attracting enterprises and gathering industries.
The improvement of industrial supporting facilities provides lasting endurance for growth.
At present, Manzhouli has achieved full coverage of the four major cross-border e-commerce business models, built a 28,000-square-meter cross-border e-commerce industrial park, and deployed 9 overseas warehouses with a total area of more than 300,000 square meters.
This builds a supply chain network of “domestic parks + overseas fulcrums”. Companies can prepare goods in overseas warehouses in advance. Once overseas consumers place an order, they can quickly deliver goods locally, which greatly improves logistics timeliness and shopping experience.
In terms of logistics channels, as a bridgehead for opening up to the north, Manzhouli is optimizing its “next-day delivery” to Mongolia and “one-week delivery” to Russia, and building a new cross-border logistics pattern of “buying nationwide and selling to Russia and Mongolia”.
The country’s first “TIR + bonded” cross-border e-commerce import business landed in Qingdao, but its goods entered the country through Manzhouli Port, highlighting Manzhouli’s key hub value in the international logistics link.
Complete supporting facilities allow companies to dare to invest and expand, thereby releasing greater market potential.
It can be said that the outbreak of cross-border e-commerce in Manzhouli is the result of the system’s efforts.
Policy services are subtracted to reduce the burden on enterprises; infrastructure is added to improve carrying capacity; logistics networks are multiplied to expand market space.
When these factors work together, growth will follow naturally.
