The Hunan-Guangdong-Hong Kong Single E-lock Scheme (SELS) was officially launched on 13 June 2023. Following Guangdong Province, Hunan Province is the second Mainland province to participate in the SELS. The Commissioner of Customs and Excise, Ms Louise Ho, attended the launching ceremony in Changsha, Hunan and delivered a speech to share the latest and future development of the SELS.

The first batch of transhipment postal items was successfully delivered to the Air Mail Centre of Hong Kong International Airport from Changsha on the next day and was transhipped to overseas destinations. The new "green lane" helps promote Hunan's products to international markets and consolidates Hong Kong's position as an international logistics centre, unleashing unlimited business opportunities for Hong Kong's logistics industry.

The Import and Export (Amendment) Ordinance 2023 was gazetted and effective on 30 June. The Ordinance provides an exemption for the specified intermodal transhipment of Alternative Smoking Products (ASPs). A new control regime, namely the Alternative Smoking Product Transhipment Control Scheme (ATCS), has been put in place to administer, supervise, and implement the exemption arrangments so as to prevent the leakage of ASPs into the local markets during the transhipment processes. Details of the ATCS and the security and procedural requirements for registered operators are outlined on the Customs website.

To enhance the logistics inductry's understanding of the ATCS, the Department held a briefing session on 5 July at the Hong Kong Science Museum.

《2023年進出口（修訂）條例》（《條例》）於六月三十日刊憲並生效，《條例》為指明聯運轉運另類吸煙產品提供豁免。為配合《條例》，香港海關訂立新的監管制度，即「另類吸煙產品轉運監管計劃」（「監管計劃」），以管理、監督和執行有關豁免安排，防止另類吸煙產品在轉運過程中流入本地市場。香港海關已在海關網頁列明「監管計劃」的各項細節，和登記營運人須遵守的保安和程序要求。

香港海關七月五日於香港科學館舉辦簡介會，以加強物流業界和持分者對「監管計劃」的了解。

Alternative Smoking Product Transhipment Control Scheme Officially Launched 

「另類吸煙產品轉運監管計劃」正式推行

"Northbound Travel for Hong Kong Vehicles" was successfully launched on 1 July 2023. To maintain the customs clearance efficiency in the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (HZMB), Hong Kong Customs has made proactive preparation and resource allocation.

Understanding that some drivers and passengers under the Scheme are first-time users of the cross-boundary facilities, promotional videos and leaflets were prepared to introduce the Customs clearance routes and procedures for private cars and a dedicated page was created on Customs website for public enquiry. In addition to a series of training and drills for frontline officers, Customs has closely co-operated with the Transport Department, other law enforcement agencies and Mainland Customs to facilitate the smooth implementation of the Scheme.

Customs will continue to monitor the traffic of the HZMB and deploy manpower and resources as necessary to ensure the smooth operation of the control point.

「港車北上」今年七月一日正式實施，為維持港珠澳大橋口岸一貫的高效清關服務，香港海關作出了充分的準備及資源調配。

考慮到計劃下的司機及乘客大多是初次使用大橋過境，海關特地製作了宣傳短片和單張，介紹私家車出入境香港的清關路線、口岸的清關流程及注意事項，並於海關網頁加設專頁方便公眾查詢。同時，除了一系列前線培訓和演練，海關與運輸署、其他執法部門及內地海關保持緊密溝通，提升協作能力，讓計劃得以順利推行。

海關會繼續因應港珠澳大橋的車流，靈活調配人手，確保口岸運作暢順。
