重慶汽車(chē)整車(chē)進(jìn)口口岸獲批

7月9日，記者從重慶市政府口岸辦獲悉，國(guó)務(wù)院已批準(zhǔn)重慶設(shè)立汽車(chē)整車(chē)進(jìn)口口岸。這是繼重慶鐵路口岸開(kāi)放后，國(guó)務(wù)院批準(zhǔn)重慶設(shè)立的又一重大開(kāi)放功能平臺(tái)，這也是國(guó)家首次在西部?jī)?nèi)陸地區(qū)設(shè)立整車(chē)口岸。

汽車(chē)整車(chē)進(jìn)口口岸是指享有開(kāi)展從國(guó)外進(jìn)口汽車(chē)整體業(yè)務(wù)范圍的進(jìn)口口岸。此前，全國(guó)的汽車(chē)整車(chē)進(jìn)口口岸共14個(gè)，其中11個(gè)主要分布于沿海一線，包括北京、天津、大連、上海、黃埔、欽州、福州、青島、張家港、寧波、深圳等地，此外還有滿洲里、新疆阿拉山口、霍爾果斯3個(gè)沿邊口岸。雖然口岸為數(shù)眾多，但實(shí)際上全國(guó)進(jìn)口汽車(chē)基本集中在天津、上海、廣州3個(gè)口岸。

此次，國(guó)務(wù)院新批復(fù)的三個(gè)汽車(chē)整車(chē)進(jìn)口口岸，除重慶外，還有河南鄭州和湖南岳陽(yáng)，均為內(nèi)陸城市。有分析人士認(rèn)為，這是汽車(chē)整車(chē)進(jìn)口口岸首次布局在中西部?jī)?nèi)陸，且重慶和岳陽(yáng)都在長(zhǎng)江經(jīng)濟(jì)帶上，加上之前的上海、張家港、寧波，就串起了長(zhǎng)江經(jīng)濟(jì)帶的五個(gè)城市。重慶又是渝新歐的起點(diǎn)，又連起了絲綢之路經(jīng)濟(jì)帶，戰(zhàn)略意義頗有深意。

重慶市政府口岸辦相關(guān)人士介紹，之前汽車(chē)整車(chē)進(jìn)口口岸設(shè)在沿海、延邊，是因?yàn)閮?nèi)陸還不具備設(shè)立整車(chē)進(jìn)口口岸的條件。而渝新歐的開(kāi)通運(yùn)行，為汽車(chē)整車(chē)進(jìn)口的陸路運(yùn)輸提供了基礎(chǔ)和條件。此次重慶獲批，最直接的影響，也將是解決渝新歐的回程貨物問(wèn)題。

Chongqing Automobile Import Port Approved

On July 9, it is learned from Chongqing Municipal People’s Government Port Office that the State Council had authorized Chongqing to set up an automobile import port. It is another major functional platform for opening-up established by Chongqing under the authorization of the State Council since the opening of Chongqing Railway Port. It is also the fi rst automobile import port authorized by the State Council in inland areas of West China.

Automobile import port refers to an import port entitled to such business as importing cars from other counties.Previously, there were in all 14 such ports in China, 11 of which were distributed along the coastal line of China, including Beijing, Tianjin, Dalian, Shanghai, Huangpu, Qinzhou, Fuzhou, Qingdao, Zhangjiagang, Ningbo and Shenzhen, while the rest were in Manzhouli, Alataw Pass and Khorgos Ports distributed along the borderline. Despite the sheer number, the imported cars in China are primarily in Tianjin, Shanghai and Guangzhou.

This time, the State Council approved three automobile import ports in inland cities of Zhengzhou, Henan Province and Yueyang, Hunan Province in addition to Chongqing. Some analysts hold that it is the fi rst time that the automobile import ports have been confi gured in inland areas of Central and West China, and Chongqing and Yueyang, which are located in the Yangtze River Economic Zone, together with Shanghai, Zhangjiagang and Ningbo that have been approved before, form the fi ve cities in this Belt. It is of great strategic signifi cance considering that Chongqing is the starting point of Chongqing-Xinjiang-Europe Railway as well as connects with Silk Road Economic Belt.

As introduced by offi cers from Chongqing Municipal People’s Government Port Offi ce, for lack of relevant conditions in inland areas, all previous automobile import ports are based along the coastal areas and borderline of China. The launch of Chongqing-Xinjiang-Europe Railway, however, lays foundations and offers conditions for land transportation of cars from other countries into China. The most direct infl uence of Chongqing’s approval is that it ensures the backhaul cargo via Chongqing-Xinjiang-Europe Railway.
