Super-fast approval bureau opens doors

Boosting Tianjin's plans for establishing a free-trade zone, the city's Binhai New Area has set up the country's first administrative approval bureau, gathering 216 items for approval under the 18 government sectors in the area and shortening the approval process.

The bureau can deliver an approval in one day, which is the fastest in the country.

The administrative service center that opened its doors on Tuesday boasts more than 200 counters offering diversified administrative examination and approval-related services, such as enterprise and tax registration, and foreign investment approval procedures.
