Six months after the launch of island-wide special customs operations, the Hainan Free Trade Port is running smoothly, with international trade and investor interest rising sharply, Feng Fei, Party secretary of Hainan province, told China Daily.
The landmark move, which took effect on Dec 18, 2025, represents one of China's most ambitious institutional opening-up efforts. Feng said that the initial phase had achieved its primary goal of stable and orderly operations, with goods moving efficiently, cross-border travel more convenient, and businesses increasingly moving operations to the island.
As of May 31, the efficiency of customs clearance had improved significantly. The value of imports under the zero-tariff policy jumped 116 percent year-on-year, the average clearance time for imported goods dropped 20 percent, and the declaration requirements for goods leaving the island for the mainland were simplified by more than 60 percent.
The total value of international trade rose 53.7 percent during the period. The number of registered foreign trade companies grew 57.8 percent, while newly established foreign-funded enterprises increased 37.6 percent.
The robust growth reflects not only the initial effects of the special customs operations, but also the growing effectiveness of the Hainan FTP's institutional framework, he said. A comprehensive policy framework is now in place, featuring zero tariffs, low tax rates, and liberalization and facilitation of trade, investment, cross-border capital flows, personnel entry and exit, and transport, alongside safe and orderly data flow. Goods eligible for zero-tariff treatment have expanded from 21 percent to 74 percent of all tariff lines.
Institutional innovations are also reshaping the island's economic structure. Feng said that Hainan has developed a modern industrial system with distinctive characteristics and competitive strengths. Tourism, modern services, high-tech industries and high-efficiency tropical agriculture accounted for nearly 70 percent of the province's GDP in the first quarter of 2026.
Against this backdrop, Feng said that Hainan is becoming an increasingly attractive destination for global investors and highlighted three major opportunities for foreign businesses. Hainan offers China's shortest negative list for foreign investment, a pioneering cross-border services trade negative list, and special market-access measures, including the establishment of wholly foreign-owned hospitals, as well as the independent operation of high-level overseas universities and vocational colleges in the fields of science, engineering, agriculture and medicine.
Located at the junction of two of the world's most dynamic markets — China's 1.4 billion consumers and Southeast Asia's nearly 700 million — Hainan has attracted 22 Fortune Global 500 foreign-funded enterprises and a total of 139 headquarters-type companies. The island has become a popular choice for global investors looking to enter the Chinese market or expand globally. In 2025, Hainan's outbound investment volume grew 20.7 percent year-on-year.
To sustain the momentum, Hainan has been stepping up efforts to develop a market-oriented, law-based and internationalized business environment, according to Feng. The province has introduced a fair competition regulation, enacted 57 local regulations under the Hainan FTP Law, and established international commercial courts and a specialized intellectual property court. A one-stop dispute resolution mechanism integrating mediation, arbitration and litigation is now operational.
Meanwhile, Hainan is upgrading its transport and logistics infrastructure to strengthen its role as a regional hub linking China with global markets.
Hainan aims to become a shipping hub for the New International Land-Sea Trade Corridor and an aviation gateway to the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The first seventh-freedom traffic rights route, which enables foreign airlines to operate routes between two countries without flying to their home countries, is now operational.
Feng outlined a road map to establish Hainan as a new frontier of China's opening-up by 2035, and as a globally influential high-level free trade port by the middle of the century. The province has partnered with 44 global free trade zones and ports, attracted investment from 180 countries and regions, and maintained trade ties with over 220 countries and regions.
以下是报道的详细内容：
海南省委书记冯飞在接受《中国日报》专访时表示，全岛封关运作启动半年来，整体运行平稳有序，海南自贸港国际贸易活跃度与投资者关注度大幅攀升。
具有里程碑意义的封关运作于2025年12月18日正式启动，是中国制度型开放领域力度最大的探索之一。冯飞指出，从半年情况看，我们顺利实现整体运行平稳有序的主要目标，物畅其流、人享其行、流量集聚等成效初显。
自贸港通关效率更高，截至5月31日，“零关税”政策进口货值同比增长1.16倍，进口货物平均通关时间压缩20%，“二线”出岛货物申报项目简化60%以上。
同期，外贸进出口总额、海关备案外贸企业、新增外资企业同比分别增长53.7%、57.8%、37.6%，越来越多的国内外投资者选择把海南作为走向国际市场和进入中国市场的总部基地。
这一强劲增长既体现了封关运作的初步成效，也彰显了海南自贸港制度体系的持续赋能效应。封关以来，以“零关税、低税率”“贸易、投资、跨境资金流动、人员进出、运输来往自由便利和数据安全有序流动”为主要特征的政策制度体系初步建立，“零关税”商品税目比例从21%提高到74%。
制度创新正持续重塑海南经济结构。据冯飞介绍，海南正在加快构建具有特色和优势现代化产业体系。2026年一季度，旅游业、现代服务业、高新技术产业、热带特色高效农业四大主导产业产值占全省GDP比重提高到近70%。
在此背景下，海南对全球投资者的吸引力持续增强。冯飞重点推介了外资企业可把握的三大机遇：一是宽松的准入条件。有中国最短外商投资准入负面清单、首个跨境服务贸易负面清单和市场准入特别措施，允许外资设立外商独资医院，允许境外理工农医类高水平大学、职业院校独立办学，外资可参与的领域广、门槛低。二是优惠的税收政策。鼓励类产业企业所得税率15%、个人所得税率最高15%，货物进口“零关税”，进口自用生产设备、原材料免关税，投资性价比高。三是广阔的市场空间。当前最活跃的两个市场，一个是14亿人口超大规模的中国国内市场，一个是近7亿人口的东南亚市场，海南就处在这两个市场的交汇点上，是外资深耕中国市场的重要门户，布局亚太、辐射全球的战略支点。
目前，世界500强企业中已有22家外资企业落户海南，累计139家总部企业入驻。海南正成为全球企业布局中国、拓展全球的优选地。2025年海南对外投资额同比增长20.7%。
冯飞表示，为更好对接全球资本、服务外来投资，海南正着力打造市场化、法治化、国际化一流营商环境。出台全国首部公平竞争条例，深入实施海南自由贸易港法，配套出台自由贸易港法规57件，设立国际商事法庭、海南自由贸易港知识产权法院，建立调解、仲裁、诉讼有机衔接的“一站式”国际商事纠纷多元解决机制和疑难复杂问题法治会诊解决机制。
与此同时，海南正加快提升交通物流基础设施能级，强化连接中国与全球市场的区域枢纽功能。海南正加快打造西部陆海新通道国际航运枢纽和面向太平洋、印度洋的航空区域门户枢纽。全国首条第七航权航线投入运营。
冯飞描绘了海南未来的发展蓝图：到2035年成为我国开放型经济新高地；到本世纪中叶全面建成具有较强国际影响力的高水平自由贸易港。目前，海南与44个境内外自贸区（港）建立伙伴关系,180个国家和地区在海南投资，与220多个国家和地区有贸易往来。
