Beijing Helps Enterprises Gain Int'l Certificates
Beijing will offer subsidies, training and streamlining approval requirements to Chinese and international enterprises to encourage them to gain international quality certifications.
Liu Shenru, deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Administration of Entry-Exit Inspection and Quarantine, said Friday that authorities will reduce fees of certificates and offer specific subsidies to enterprises that have obtained quality certificates issued by authorized agents in China.
The authorities will allow these enterprises to obtain export license without going through examinations of products at factories and enjoy simplified quarantine and inspection procedures.
At the same time, the authorities will also grant funds to these enterprises as they attend trade promotion activities in Beijing.
Moreover, the city government will offer a series of lectures and training programs on the certificate system to enterprises in the city.
Vice Mayor Zhang Mao said that by 2002, the city will encourage 30 percent of the enterprises that export products and services to other countries and regions to obtain international quality certificates.
The city will encourage all the key enterprises that are listed on the city's plan to expand foreign trade with science and technology to obtain quality certificates.
Beijing now has more than 140 Chinese enterprises and over 1,000 overseas-funded enterprises that are allowed to export goods and services to foreign countries and regions.
