Border Trade Promotion by Kunming Customs District in Yunnan Province
[Shi Yi]: When you carry some articles to enter or exit the border through a zone (site) or a port for exchange trade for border residents, you need to fill in the Declaration Form for Inbound/Outbound Articles for the Exchange Trade between Border Residents, and truthfully declare the name, weight, quantity, amount and other information on the articles carried by you. These contents shall be accurate, clear and specific, and subject to the supervision and inspection of the Customs. The on-site customs officers will examine the articles, levy the corresponding duties and taxes on the articles, verify the relevant documents and then release them according to relevant provisions. 06/05/2014 10:14:47

[Net friend: Import and export agent]: Gentlemen, my question is how I can obtain the right to conduct the petty frontier trade? 06/05/2014 7:37:14
[Shi Yi]: You need to register a company according to the law and file the relevant documents with the local commercial authority in the border area, and complete the registration for the consignor and consignee of imported and exported goods with the customs house. Then you can start the petty frontier trade. The declaration procedures and applicable tax rates for normal trade can be applied to petty frontier trade. 06/05/2014 10:16:32

The leading entity for the substitute plantation in Yunnan Province is the Department of Commerce of Yunnan Province, and the member entities are six departments including the Department of Commerce. Each year, the Department of Commerce of Yunnan Province will convene a meeting to discuss and apply for the quota for the substitute plantation in the next year. Then the application will be reported by the Ministry of Commerce to the State Council for examination and approval. The Kunming Customs District is an organ to implement the policy. 06/05/2014 10:17:06
