海南自由贸易港建设总体方案

Overall Plan for the Construction of Hainan Free Trade Port

海南是我国最大的经济特区，具有实施全面深化改革和试验最高水平开放政策的独特优势。支持海南逐步探索、稳步推进中国特色自由贸易港建设，分步骤、分阶段建立自由贸易港政策和制度体系，是习近平总书记亲自谋划、亲自部署、亲自推动的改革开放重大举措，是党中央着眼国内国际两个大局，深入研究、统筹考虑、科学谋划作出的战略决策。当今世界正在经历新一轮大发展大变革大调整，保护主义、单边主义抬头，经济全球化遭遇更大的逆风和回头浪。在海南建设自由贸易港，是推进高水平开放，建立开放型经济新体制的根本要求;是深化市场化改革，打造法治化、国际化、便利化营商环境的迫切需要;是贯彻新发展理念，推动高质量发展，建设现代化经济体系的战略选择;是支持经济全球化，构建人类命运共同体的实际行动。为深入贯彻习近平总书记在庆祝海南建省办经济特区30周年大会上的重要讲话精神，落实《中共中央、国务院关于支持海南全面深化改革开放的指导意见》要求，加快建设高水平的中国特色自由贸易港，制定本方案。

   As China’s largest special economic zone, Hainan is uniquely positioned to further all-round reform and experiment with the highest level of opening-up policy. Providing support for Hainan to explore and make steady headway in the construction of a free trade port with distinctive Chinese features and to establish a free trade port policy and system in multiple steps and phases is a major measure that General Secretary Xi Jinping personally planned, deployed, and promoted to expand reform and opening up. With a focus on the overall situation of international and domestic development, it is also a strategic decision made by the Party Central Committee and the State Council through in-depth research, overall consideration, and scientific planning. In today’s world that is going through a new round of great developments, major changes, and extensive adjustments, protectionism and unilateralism are on the rise, and economic globalization faces stronger headwinds and undertows. Building a free trade port in Hainan is the?prerequisite for boosting high-level opening up and setting up a new, open economic system; it is an urgent need of deepening market-oriented reforms, and creating an international, convenient business environment that calls for the rule of law; it is a strategic choice of implementing new development concepts, fueling high-quality development, and building a modern economic system; and it is a practical action of supporting economic globalization and building a community with shared future for mankind. The Plan is formulated in order to thoroughly implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important speech at a gathering celebrating the 30th anniversary of the establishment of the Hainan Provincial Special Economic Zone, put in place the requirements of the Guidelines of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on Supporting Hainan in Furthering All-Round Reform and Opening up, and expedite the construction of Hainan FTP at a high level.

In alignment with high-level international economic and trade rules and with a focus on trade and investment liberalization and facilitation, we should free our minds and break new paths to establish a policy framework that matches with a high-level FTP, and to build areas under special customs supervision with international competitiveness and clout, striving to build the Hainan Free Trade Port into a distinctive flagship and important gateway for leading China’s opening up in the new era.

   ——Embodying distinctive Chinese features. By upholding the CPC’s centralized and unified leadership, staying on the path of socialism with Chinese characteristics, committing to a people-centered approach, and practicing core socialist values, we must ensure the correct direction of the construction of Hainan Free Trade Port. While encouraging initiative from all sectors with concentrated efforts for big and key projects, all for the purpose of achieving the fundamental goals for national development, we must pool together global high-quality production factors, and strive to achieve new breakthroughs in accelerating institutional innovation, cultivating growth drivers, and building a new landscape of all-round opening up, thus providing a solid support for national strategic goals. We must strengthen exchanges and cooperation with Southeast Asian countries, and step up joint development with the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

　　——符合海南定位。紧紧围绕国家赋予海南建设全面深化改革开放试验区、国家生态文明试验区、国际旅游消费中心和国家重大战略服务保障区的战略定位，充分发挥海南自然资源丰富、地理区位独特以及背靠超大规模国内市场和腹地经济等优势，抢抓全球新一轮科技革命和产业变革重要机遇，聚焦发展旅游业、现代服务业和高新技术产业，加快培育具有海南特色的合作竞争新优势。

   ——Compliance with Hainan’s development positioning. Focusing firmly on the strategic positioning given by the state to Hainan as a pilot zone for furthering all-round reform and opening up, a national pilot zone for ecological conservation, an international tourism and consumption destination and a service zone for implementing China’s major strategies, we must advance the timeline for the cultivation of new advantages of cooperation and competition with distinctive Hainan features, by taking full advantage of Hainan’s rich natural resources, unique geographic location as well as the strong backing of ultra-large-scale domestic market and economic hinterlands, and capturing the important opportunities of a new round of global scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation, with a focus on the development of tourism, modern services and high-tech industries.

   ——Highlighting reform and innovation. We must strengthen the consciousness of reform and innovation by empowering Hainan with greater autonomy in reform, and supporting Hainan to accelerate reform and innovation across the board. We must actively explore the establishment of more flexible and efficient laws and regulations, regulatory patterns and management systems that are adaptable to the construction of a free trade port, and work hard to eliminate institutional obstacles that hinder the flow of production factors. We must promote the openness of commodities and factor mobility, speed up the openness of rules and other systems, and drive all-round reform through high-level opening up. We should reinforce the integration of reform systems, stay focused on coordinated progress, enable innovation initiatives on all fronts to mutually coordinate and complement each other, and increase overall benefits of reform and innovation.

　　——坚持底线思维。坚持稳扎稳打、步步为营，统筹安排好开放节奏和进度，成熟一项推出一项，不急于求成、急功近利。深入推进简政放权、放管结合、优化服务，全面推行准入便利、依法过程监管的制度体系，建立与国际接轨的监管标准和规范制度。加强重大风险识别和系统性风险防范，建立健全风险防控配套措施。完善重大疫情防控体制机制，健全公共卫生应急管理体系。开展常态化评估工作，及时纠偏纠错，确保海南自由贸易港建设方向正确、健康发展。

   ——Adherence to bottom-line thinking. Guided by the step-by-step and consistent strategy, we must work holistically to control the rhythm and progress of opening up, and launch each measure as conditions permit in a way that is not in a rush for quick results or eager for instant success and quick profits. We must make further progress in streamlining administration, delegating powers and improving regulation, fully implement the system featuring convenient access and law-based process supervision, and establish regulatory standards and norms geared to international practices. It is necessary for us to strengthen the identification of major risks and the prevention of systemic risks, and develop and improve supporting measures for risk prevention and control. We should also improve the mechanism of major epidemic prevention and control and the public health emergency management system. We must normalize assessment work, and rectify deviations and correct errors in a timely manner. By doing that, the construction of Hainan Free Trade Port can be ensured towards a right direction of sound development.

  　(三)发展目标

This should be achieved on the condition that the division of labor and mechanisms and measures are clarified, and the bottom line of having no systemic risks is resolutely held.

For trade in goods, a system of liberalization and facilitation featuring “zero tariffs” should be implemented. With regard to trade in services, policy measures for liberalization and facilitation characterized by “letting firms in and letting them do business” should be implemented.

　　1.“一线”放开。在海南自由贸易港与中华人民共和国关境外其他国家和地区之间设立“一线”。“一线”进(出)境环节强化安全准入(出)监管，加强口岸公共卫生安全、国门生物安全、食品安全、产品质量安全管控。在确保履行我国缔结或参加的国际条约所规定义务的前提下，制定海南自由贸易港禁止、限制进出口的货物、物品清单，清单外货物、物品自由进出，海关依法进行监管。制定海南自由贸易港进口征税商品目录，目录外货物进入自由贸易港免征进口关税。以联运提单付运的转运货物不征税、不检验。从海南自由贸易港离境的货物、物品按出口管理。实行便捷高效的海关监管，建设高标准国际贸易“单一窗口”。

For importation (exportation) activities at the first line, we should step up monitoring of security access (exit), and strengthen controls of public health safety, bio-safety at border crossings, food safety, and product quality safety. On the premise that the fulfillment of the obligations stipulated in the international treaties, which China has concluded or acceded to, is ensured, we will develop lists of goods and articles prohibited and restricted for import and export for the Hainan Free Trade Port. The goods and articles outside the list shall be freely imported and exported, and supervised by the customs in accordance with the law.
