China, South Korea and Japan ease customs procedures

China, South Korea and Japan are expected to strengthen cooperation on customs enforcement and information sharing. 

Details on expanding cooperation and improving cooperation mechanisms are being discussed at the seventh China-South Korea-Japan Customs Enforcement and Information Working Meeting, which is held in Shenyang, capital city of Liaoning province from May 8 to 10.

Enforcement against smuggling of solid waste, drugs, gold, endangered species and tackling fraud are priority areas for the three countries. 

The move is of great importance to create a safe and fair customs environment, as well as to help facilitate trade.
