A China-Europe freight train loaded with home appliances departed from Ordos city's Xinjie Station on Nov 12, heading for Moscow's Bely Rast Station via the Alataw Pass in Xinjiang, marking the 20th China-Europe train dispatched from Ordos this year.

From January to October, the China–Europe freight train departing from Ordos recorded a total cargo value of 339 million yuan ($47.75 million). Its network has expanded to five countries and 11 stations, including destinations in Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan, marking Ordos' initial step toward deeper integration into the Belt and Road international logistics corridor.

"The bonded warehousing and direct transfer policies in the Ordos Comprehensive Bonded Zone allow us to consolidate goods nearby before departure, while tax rebates upon entry significantly improve cash flow and clearance efficiency," said Liu Xuan, a representative of Ordos Ouqiao International Logistics Co.

Since October, Ordos has dispatched 11 freight trains in rapid succession. Export commodities have been upgraded from basic products such as vehicle parts and tires to higher-value goods, including LCD panels, household appliances, and complete knock-down automobile kits. Monthly cargo value has exceeded 160 million yuan, hitting a new yearly high.

Ordos Customs has advanced the "bonded + China-Europe freight train" model to better integrate bonded operations with freight operations. Measures include allowing consolidated declarations with split deliveries, vehicle-based release, and categorized supervision. These steps support the convenient entry and consolidation of non-bonded goods, enabling rapid in-zone transfers and swift clearance to ensure efficient train operations.
