Although the local shipper is welcomed by the local shipper's rules in the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), and points out the delivery time and cost, the current market situation means that its impact may be weakened.
According to the Executive Director of the Hong Kong Consignor Council, the e-commerce boom and freight caused by newzigni pneumonia have increased significantly, meaning that the impact of 100% scan will not be as obvious as before.
"Hong Kong has successfully completed 30%, 50% and 70% of scanning, in view of the number of existing scanners, the requirements of 100% before the end of June should not have any problems."
"The impact of the required funds will be from 0.1 to 0.12 per kilogram. However, current shipping is twice as much as new crown pneumonia, and the shipping costs of Europe and the US main destination are 7-9 dollars per kilogram. Therefore, from a percentage, additional cost is not very high. "
