433

Urumqi, Dec 1 (IANS) The Jeminay Port in northwest China’s Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region has recorded 100,000 cross-border passenger trips this year, a 10-year record high, local officials said.

As of Friday, the port has seen a 250 per cent increase in border entries and exits this year, with a single-day peak of over 700, according to the local border inspection station, Xinhua reported.

The port is a border crossing between China and Kazakhstan with convenient customs clearance procedures, and it has become a preferred route for cross-border travel with the advancement of the Belt and Road Initiative and the expansion of China’s visa-free entry list.

The port offers quality, efficient customs clearance services for travellers. “We continue to optimise and address the challenges in customs clearance to propel high-level opening-up,” said Yao Lin, a division head at the border inspection station.
