Solve the "difficult to transport" export cars on the logistics fast track

December 21, 2022

On December 16, Maersk Group and Azera signed a framework cooperation agreement. By partnering with the world's leading shipping and logistics company, Azera will accelerate its logistics platform in overseas markets, and Maersk's global warehousing and distribution resources will provide strong support for Azera's after-sales service.

The partnership is a reflection of the rapid development of the new energy vehicle market at home and abroad, and the accelerated "going global" of China's smart electric vehicle brands, which has placed greater demands on the overall supply chain logistics capabilities. According to the data of China Association of Automobile Manufacturers, from January to November, Chinese automobile enterprises exported a total of 2.785 million units, up 55.3% year-on-year. Among them, 593,000 new energy vehicles were exported, a year-on-year increase of 1 times.

In contrast to the explosive growth of auto exports, the capacity of ro-ro ships to carry cars has been in short supply. This is one of the reasons why car companies such as Azure are strengthening cooperation with shipping and logistics companies, and at the same time, to solve the "difficult to transport" bottleneck of Chinese car companies, improve transport efficiency and develop multimodal transport also play an important role in it.

Regulation helps accelerate

At 10:00 on December 12, Yin Yixing, the customs manager of Asia-Europe Automobile Manufacturing (Taizhou) Co., Ltd. hurriedly found Taizhou Customs, saying that he wanted to modify the data of the customs declaration and the information of the checklist.

"The 641 cars originally declared for export need to be loaded less due to bad weather, and will be loaded at 12:00 today, so the bill should be changed as soon as possible." Yin Yixing has lost track of how many times this is the revision of the customs declaration: "This year, the export situation of new energy vehicles is very good, but the lack of capacity of ro-ro ships, has been shipped to the port of the car can not ship the situation often occurs." In the first 10 months, the export of new energy vehicles from Asia and Europe reached 11.39 billion yuan.

Unlike the container ship transport of ordinary goods, the export of complete cars need to be achieved through special transport ships - ro-ro ship transport. The rapid growth of the export volume makes the contradiction of insufficient capacity of ro-ro vessels prominent, car manufacturers often encounter insufficient space for shipment on board, coupled with the superimposed epidemic, weather and other reasons, car export plans are forced to adjust repeatedly, resulting in a large number of customs declarations need to change the number of ships and export ports in time to smoothly out of the transport.

In order to support the smooth export of new energy automobile enterprises, Taizhou Customs optimizes the operation process of origin visa and customs declaration modification, simplifies the collection of operation documents, speeds up the business processing speed, and instantly handles special urgent cases for enterprises, so that export vehicles can be shipped in time. At the same time, Taizhou Customs also for new energy vehicles with lithium batteries such as dangerous goods, optimize customs clearance initiatives. "The export of lithium batteries need to have outbound dangerous goods transport packaging use identification results, in addition to educating enterprises about the relevant policies of customs inspection of dangerous goods packaging, we also make comprehensive use of 'advance declaration' and other facilitated customs clearance mode, the implementation of priority inspection of the relevant goods, rapid issuance of certificates services. " According to Taizhou Customs supervision four deputy section chief Jin Hui, at present, Taizhou Customs outbound dangerous goods transport packaging use identification results of the issuance time has been compressed from the original 2 to 3 days, to within a day.

Open a new channel of export land and sea

On Nov. 24, a container sea-rail transport train loaded with 93 new energy vehicles entered Ningbo Zhoushan Port railroad station. At this point, all 402 new energy vehicles of this brand arrived at the port and will be exported to Europe by container ship, thus opening a new channel for exporting new energy vehicles from Ningbo Zhoushan Port to land and sea.

It is understood that this new energy car sea-rail intermodal train departs from Jiangsu Province, and will be sent to Europe directly after boarding the ship at Ningbo Zhoushan Port, realizing seamless sea-rail intermodal transportation.

"In the past, new energy vehicles were mainly exported to overseas through ro-ro ships. In order to further expand overseas sales market and reduce the queuing time waiting for ro-ro capacity, we choose sea-rail intermodal transport out to ensure a stable supply chain in overseas markets." The relevant person in charge of the brand car company said.

In view of the current situation of insufficient ro-ro capacity in the global shipping market, the sea-rail intermodal transport team of Ningbo Zhoushan Port takes the initiative to dock with automobile OEMs and port units, recommends efficient and convenient sea-rail intermodal transport logistics solutions, and organizes the whole process carefully to ensure the safe and fast shipment of new energy vehicles.

"Shipping through the new land and sea channel will help China's new energy vehicles go overseas more conveniently." Xu Bin, director of the sea and railway center of the business department of Ningbo Zhoushan Port Co., Ltd, said that in the next step, Ningbo Zhoushan Port will continue to strengthen the layout of the sea and railway intermodal transport business network, provide customers with better logistics solutions and build a more stable, safe and efficient logistics system.
