Hainan: A Microcosm of China’s Opening Up

COMUNICATO STAMPA – CONTENUTO PROMOZIONALE

HAIKOU, China, May 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A report from Hainan International Media Center: 

On December 18, 2025, Hainan, an island province just off the southern tip of the Chinese mainland, launched special customs operations. It is a landmark initiative in the country’s efforts to further high-standard opening up with the island—designated in its entirety as the Hainan Free Trade Port—at the epicenter. 

Telling the story of the monumental developments that have taken place since then are Hinews.cn and Hainan International Media Center, which are shining a light on the policies and the people from around the world benefiting from them through the online international communications event, An Open Future—Hainan’s Answers to Global Questions.  

  

Decoding the Hainan FTP: Special Customs Operations takes viewers on a journey through the key policies that make Hainan’s model unique: how much money can companies save in taxes? How fast can international trade goods make it through customs? How easy is it to move money across borders through the QDLP program and the EF account system? From the bustling dockside at Yangpu Container Terminal to the multilingual 12345 government service hotline, learn more about what keeps special customs operations ticking.

Meanwhile, Malaysian shoe brand Fipper set up its first shop in Hainan after exhibiting at the China International Consumer Products Expo, saving 10-15% on import costs compared to other free-trade zones.
