China's epidemic prevention policy has further relaxed the peak season with Hainan's tourism, which drives Hainan's outlying islands duty -free market to continue to warm up.Haikou Customs released data on Tuesday (January 3). On the New Year's Day holiday in 2023, the average sales amount of Hainan's outlying tax exemptions reached 140 million yuan (RMB, the same below, about 27 million yuan).
According to the China News Agency, the customs introduced that from December 31, 2022 to January 2, 2023, the customs supervised a total of 422 million yuan in tax -free shopping, 43,000 shopping passengers, 47.6 pieces of 47.6 pieces10,000 pieces.The per capita shopping amount was 9,816 yuan, and it was restored to the same period of 2022.
Affected by the epidemic, Hainan's outlying islands' tax -free sales in 2022 are less than expected.Beginning in December 2022, 11 outlying islands duty -free shops in Hainan jointly launched a two -month "outlying island duty -free New Year's Eve carnival" to launch various promotional activities such as discounts and full reductions.Customs statistics show that since mid -December 2022, the average consumption of Hainan's outlying tax exemption days exceeded 100 million yuan, and the recovery trend is obvious.
In order to bring tax -free consumption, Hainan continues to issue government consumer coupons.For example, Haikou recently issued a total of 6 million yuan of duty -free consumer coupons, and the people can enjoy full reduction in discounts after receiving it.
The report quoted Lu Xiayu, deputy director of the Haikou Global Excellent Duty Free City Operation Management Department, said that the passenger traffic of the New Year's Day holiday in the store increased by more than 30 % month -on -month, and it is expected that the future passenger flow will continue to grow.
