Hong Kong Customs is introducing a new Road Cargo System (ROCARS) in Shenzhen in March with 18 months of the transitional period before full implementation.
The major functions of the ROCARS are to ?
(a) enable shippers to submit cargo information via a web-based platform or other electronic means;
(b) provide call center support and registration services to shippers and truck drivers;
(c) allow Customs officers to conduct computer-assisted risk assessment on a pre-shipment basis; and
(d) facilitate the provision of one-stop Customs clearance arrangement for inter-modal transshipment cargoes through providing interface with other customs clearance systems.
All cross-boundary trucks, except those selected for inspection, will enjoy seamless customs clearance at the land boundary.
