2. Jilin Province-applicable entry ports are increased with Huangpu port, Quanzhou port, Shantou port and Yangpu port besides original Shanghai and Ningbo.

3. The cross-border transporters from Heilongjiang and Jilin Provinces are permitted to use returning containers and to transport the goods excluding those subject to export license and export duty; the returning containers shall be locked by the customs at the entry ports involved and be returned through the cross-border transport route to their exit ports.
