(ANSA-XINHUA) - YINCHUAN, 13 NOV - Northwest China's Ningxia
Hui Autonomous Region on Thursday launched its first
cross-border e-commerce freight truck service to Europe. Two
trucks loaded with 4,000 pieces of cross-border e-commerce
commodities departed from the regional capital of Yinchuan and
will make an outbound TIR transport trip through the Alataw
Pass, a major land port in Xinjiang. TIR stands for Transport
Internationaux Routiers or International Road Transport, which
is an international customs transit system to help save time and
money for transport operators and customs authorities when
moving goods across borders. The trucks are scheduled to arrive
in Belgium in 14 days, traveling 12,000 km via Kazakhstan,
Russia, Belarus, Poland and Germany, before the distribution of
the goods to other European countries. Five regular departures
will be made each day in the beginning, and there will be ten
more, starting from April 2021. (ANSA-XINHUA).
