Logistics includes material flow, information flow, and financial flow between the point of supply and the point of consumption, with transport serving as its core. With the rapidly evolving economy of the People's Republic of China (PRC), there is a need for a modern transport and logistics system that is efficient, safe, sustainable, and meets customers' requirements. This policy brief describes the current state of transport and logistics development in the PRC. It provides policy recommendations that are suitable for application in the PRC, based on the results of the study and analysis of best practices in different countries.

      Second, an excessive number of documents are required to move cargo. As many as 100 documents are required to meet port, rail, highway, customs, quarantine, and insurance requirements while moving international containerized cargo. These documents are designed by different authorities, often asking for the same set of data, with little regard for the burden they place on trade

        • Drop-and-pull operations. This method of operation is commonly used in developed countries such as Australia and the US, as well as countries in Europe. Under the right conditions, the method can significantly increase operating efficiency and reduce costs. In the PRC, it is particularly useful in promoting sea-to-rail and road-to-rail multimodal transport. Unfortunately, public security bureaus regulate trailers in the same way as they regulate tractors, leading to much higher insurance premiums for trailers compared with in developed countries
