China's General Administration of Customs signed six bilateral agreements on the trade of agricultural and food products, and customs cooperation with its counterparts from Chile and other APEC economies during the 2026 APEC Customs Business Dialogue held earlier this week in Dalian, northeast China's Liaoning Province.
The deals seek to build intelligent customs partnerships by deepening customs inspection cooperation, streamlining registration for trader of agricultural and food products such as meat-containing instant noodles and fresh fruits, and advancing cooperation on electronic certificates for aquatic products.
The two-day event, which concluded on Friday, brought together more than 230 representatives from customs authorities, government agencies, international organizations, businesses and academia across APEC economies to discuss issues including supply chain security, artificial intelligence applications and customs supervision of cross-border e-commerce.

The meeting series will conclude with the third Senior Officials' Plenary Meeting on Aug 27-28, where officials will review progress across APEC's workstreams and help shape priorities for the remaining meetings of China's 2026 host year ahead of APEC Economic Leaders' Week in Shenzhen this November.
