The 3rd China International Import Expo (CIIE) is scheduled from Nov. 5 to 10 this year in Shanghai, east China.

The CIIE is the first dedicated import exhibition in the world and has seen fruitful outcomes at the past two expos.

The Shanghai customs has been offering convenient services to this year's CIIE exhibitors amid regular epidemic control, setting up 43 special passages and 79 special counters at major ports in the city.

Fourteen designated immigration-inspection channels have been opened at Shanghai Pudong International Airport to ensure epidemic control and the swift clearance of participating exhibitors and visitors.

Over 4,800 people have been sworn in as volunteers and started going about their duties for the Expo.
