重磅发布：《海南自由贸易港法律政策研究III》

2025年12月18日，海南自由贸易港将正式封关运作。这是中国深化改革、扩大开放的重大战略部署，也是对标国际高标准经贸规则、扩大制度型开放的关键举措。根据“一线放开、二线管住、岛内自由”的基本特征，自贸港将构建起以贸易、投资自由便利为核心的制度体系。近期，国务院、国家发改委、财政部、海关总署等部门及海南省政府和有关部门陆续出台多项关键政策文件，为封关后的贸易、投资、资金流动、人员进出、数据流动等领域提供了系统而开放的法规、政策和制度保障。

在这一历史性进程中，金杜律师事务所依托全球网络资源与跨境专业经验，对标国际先进自贸港、自贸区，深度参与了国家有关部委及海南省相关部门的立法咨询、制度创新及相关课题研究、咨询服务等工作，期望助力自贸港法治化、国际化、便利化营商环境的构建。近年来，金杜海南两个办公室，始终关注自贸港建设中的法律、政策与实务的前沿问题，持续开展法律政策解读分析与研究，此前已出版两辑专题成果，获得业界关注。

本次发布的《海南自由贸易港法律政策研究III》共收录二十一篇精选文章，内容涵盖贸易与海关制度、投资与基金、金融、税收、数据、知识产权、人才政策及多元化争议解决机制等热点领域。这些文章均完成于2025年8月前，紧扣封关运作初期的政策衔接与实务需求，旨在为企业和相关机构提供具有操作价值的参考。同时也期待本书能够助力读者把握海南自贸港封关后的法律政策与制度创新，利用自贸港政策红利，在全球经济格局重构中抢占先机、行稳致远。

The Hainan Free Trade Port (FTP) will officially launch island-wide independent customs operations on 18 December 2025. This marks China's major strategic initiative to deepen reform and expand opening-up, and a critical step towards institutional opening-up through alignment with high-standard international economic and trade rules. Anchored in the core design of "first-line liberalisation, second-line control, and free circulation within the island", the FTP will establish a framework centred on trade and investment liberalisation and facilitation. Recently, the State Council, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, the General Administration of Customs, the People's Government of Hainan Province, and other authorities have rolled out a series of key policies, creating a systematic, open framework of regulations, policies, and rules for trade, investment, capital flows, personnel mobility, and data transfers in the post-launch stage.

Amid this historic endeavour, King & Wood Mallesons (KWM) has leveraged its global network and cross-border expertise to engage in legislative consultation, institutional innovation, thematic research, and advisory work for national ministries and Hainan provincial authorities, benchmarking against leading international free trade ports and zones. KWM aims to contribute to the establishment of a rule-of-law-based, globally integrated, and business-friendly environment for the FTP. In recent years, our Haikou and Sanya offices have focused closely on legal, policy, and practical issues arising from the FTP's development, with two previous landmark publications receiving wide industry attention.

This Legal and Policy Research on Hainan Free Trade Port (III) features 21 curated articles, covering key topics including trade and customs, investment and funds, finance, taxation, data governance, intellectual property, talent policy, and diversified dispute resolution mechanisms. Finalised by August 2025, these articles address regulatory transitions and practical issues in the early phase of the island-wide independent customs operations, providing enterprises and institutions with actionable guidance. The publication also seeks to help stakeholders navigate the post-launch legal and policy innovations, capitalise on the FTP's regulatory incentives, and secure first-mover advantages for sustainable development amid global economic restructuring.
