本次国务院常务会议从降低中央管理进出口环节部分收费、统一内外贸港口计费规定、禁止强制收费等3方面做了明确要求。
今年以来，我国外贸面临较大的下行压力。前7个月，我国进出口总值13.63万亿元，同比下降7.3%。其中，出口7.75万亿元，微降0.9%；进口5.88万亿元，下降14.6%；贸易顺差1.87万亿元，扩大1倍。
虽然上述贸易数据并不理想，但我国外贸出现了一些止跌企稳的迹象，特别是在我国政府大力促进贸易便利化、营造良好外贸环境的努力下，我国外贸市场多元化、进出口区域布局、贸易条件等均有不同程度的优化和改善。不过，进出口企业负担较重、收费项目繁杂的现象依然普遍存在，清理规范进出口环节收费显得更为迫切。
记者在山东多个港口采访时发现，仅“港杂费”一项，其名下就包含诸如港口安全费、制单费、码头费、封条费、文件费、仓单信息费等多个收费条目，而不同的海运港口之间，上述项目的构成及收费标准又各不相同。
“在原有关检合作‘一次申报、一次查验、一次放行’的基础上，以合并取消关检环节重复、交叉收费为切入口，将进一步推进‘信息互换、监管互认、执法互助’，有助于进一步提高监管效能、简化通关手续，提高贸易便利化水平。”广东番禺海关副关长陶永说。（中国进出口网）
