据了解,重庆自贸试验区自2016年8月31日获准可以设立,至2017年的3月15日下达正式的文件批复半年多的时间里,根据国务院的统一部署和安排,在中共重庆市委、市政府的坚强领导下已经复制了一批改革的成果,在复制推广的51项改革成果中,已经有48项全部落地实施,还有3项目前正在协调推进。同时,国家相关的部委和重庆市相关的局委办围绕自贸试验区建设的核心任务,陆续推出了一批支持政策和配套措施。
在重庆自贸试验区正式挂牌后,重庆海关、重庆出入境检验检疫局、市金融办、人民银行重庆营管部、重庆保监局、重庆市发展和改革委员会、重庆市知识产权局、重庆市工商行政管理局、重庆市政府口岸办、重庆市公安局出入境管理局、重庆市高级人民法院等11部门相继推出了助推重庆自贸试验区建设的具体政策举措,并以新闻发布会的形式对外公布。
重庆海关副关长李玉表示,为助力重庆自贸试验区的建设发展,重庆海关主动对标国际高标准经贸规则、对标全面深化改革要求、对标高水平自贸试验区建设经验,研究制定了27项支持举措,涉及“提升行政执法效能”“创新保税监管制度”“支持新型业态发展”“加强物流枢纽建设”“深化行政体制改革”等多个方面。这27项支持举措的推出将有利于重庆发挥西部大开发重要战略支点、“一带一路”和长江经济带联结点作用,有利于重庆全面融入国家对外开放和区域发展战略格局,有利于加快建成高水平高标准自贸试验区。
重庆出入境检验检疫局副局长蔡文彪在新闻发布会上表示,重庆出入境检验检疫局已制定《重庆检验检疫局关于进一步深化检验检疫制度创新支持中国(重庆)自由贸易试验区建设的意见》,这是该局支持重庆自贸试验区建设创新政策和具体措施的集中体现,主要涉及深化行政管理改革、深化检验检疫监管制度创新、提升贸易便利化水平、支持服务贸易转型升级等4个方面,共有15条措施。他还特别指出,增加企业和群众的获得感,是检验检疫政策创新的出发点和落脚点。通过这些支持措施,希望能让企业通关更便捷,办事更方便,选择更多元。同时,也能够为广大重庆市民带来多项利好:一是可以购买到更丰富的进口商品。进口水果、进口肉类等指定口岸功能的拓展、延伸,进口食品、进口消费品和进出境动植物监管模式的创新,使国外的优质商品将更加便捷地从重庆进口。二是可以享受到更优质的社会服务。比如,通过对以生物材料为主的特殊物品,实施审批负面清单管理和并联审批,大家有望不出国门就享受到与国际先进水平接轨的医疗服务。同时,重庆自贸试验区内进口文化艺术品无需办理CCC认证,凭艺术品证明文件直接受理报检。这将为境外艺术品在自贸试验区展览、销售提供便利条件,让广大市民有机会欣赏到更多的境外艺术品。
“自贸试验区不是政策洼地,而是改革高地,是金融开放的风险压力测试区。”市金融办副主任曹子玮称,市金融办将以落实习近平总书记视察重庆重要讲话精神为基本遵循,发挥重庆作为西部大开发的重要战略支点、“一带一路”和长江经济带联结点的作用,充分运用好国家赋予重庆自贸试验区的制度创新优势,推动国内重要功能性金融中心建设,助推西部地区门户城市全方位开放、带动西部大开发战略深入实施。
曹子玮表示,自贸试验区金融开放的灵魂是政策制度创新,关键是项目实施,要点是满足市场主体的实际需求。前期,市金融办与有关部门、区县政府、金融机构一道,积极推进自贸试验区建设筹备工作;推进举措主要包括加大政策制度创新的谋划力度;加快项目储备及实施进度;加快完善政策和服务配套。
人民银行重庆营业管理部副主任王江渝在新闻发布会上透露,在国务院批复重庆自贸试验区深化金融领域开放创新首批30条政策中,有17条已经实施,其余的将加紧研究制定实施细则,经人民银行、国家外汇管理局批复后,争取早日落地。下一阶段,人民银行重庆营业管理部、国家外汇管理局重庆外汇管理部将加强组织推动,完善政策实施各项保障,深入推进各项改革创新。加快推进落实;推动业务创新。指导金融机构落实自贸试验区金融创新政策,不断创新金融产品和金融服务,提升改革创新实施效应;加强风险防控。加强自贸试验区跨境资金流动监测,推动金融机构加强真实性、合规性审核,做好反洗钱、反恐怖融资工作,防范非法资金跨境、跨区流动。
重庆保监局统计研究处处长燕翱介绍称,重庆保监局正在积极贯彻落实市委、市政府和保监会关于重庆自贸试验区建设的工作部署,配合市商务委等相关部门推进重点项目和创新政策落地见效。积极引导并推动保险业参与重庆自贸试验区建设,推动自贸试验区总体方案中的保险业创新政策和重点项目落地生根。主要体现在以下三个方面:协调争取更多保险牌照落户重庆,支持在渝保险机构做强做优做大。推动保险产品和服务创新,为重庆自贸试验区建设提供风险保障。协调引进保险资金来渝投资,支持重庆建设。
中国保监会是较早对重庆自由贸易试验区拿出实质性支持意见的国家部委之一,对重庆自贸试验区方案中保险有关政策给予了积极指导和大力支持。重庆保监局作为保监会派出机构,积极在市委、市政府与保监会之间搭建沟通桥梁,并主动向保监会进行工作汇报和对接,尽量为重庆市争取更多有力度的政策支持,取得较好成效。
这次国务院批复的中国(重庆)自贸试验区总体方案,明确把“努力建成服务于‘一带一路’建设和长江经济带发展的国际物流枢纽和口岸高地”作为自贸试验区建设的一大发展目标。
打造内陆国际物流枢纽,要着力畅通中欧(渝新欧)国际铁路联运通道,长江黄金水道,渝昆泛亚铁路通道、东南沿海港口、陆路边境口岸三大国际物流通道;构建重庆西部现代物流园、重庆航空物流园、果园港物流园三大国际物流枢纽;培育国际物流主体、对接国际物流规则,以此构建形成国际物流体系。
将积极培育和引进具有国际物流网络资源的国际物流企业来渝发展,打造中欧、中美、中新等国际贸易分拨、中转、销售和结算中心,提升自贸试验区全球供应链采购和物流服务能力。支持在自贸试验区内建立海关多式联运监管中心,打造覆盖铁、公、水、空多种运输方式的国际物流运输体系。
近年来,我市在重庆自贸试验区核心区—两江新区进行了一些知识产权领域的探索试点,为自贸试验区知识产权改革试验奠定了良好基础。设立两江新区知识产权服务中心,开展专利行政管理和服务工作,为自贸试验区广大企业集中提供专利创造、运用、保护、管理等“一站式服务”,初步构建了知识产权公共服务体系。
下一步,为重庆自贸试验区建设法治化国际化便利化营商环境、加快建成内陆开放高地,我们将加快完善知识产权保护机制,在自贸试验区建立专利、商标、版权联合执法机制,营造创新创业良好环境;加快打造国家级知识产权服务业集聚区,依托八戒知识产权、专利云等机构,创新线上线下知识产权服务模式。
围绕“投资贸易便利、高端产业集聚、监管高效便捷”等目标,市工商局将立足职能职责,加强制度创新,积极协调国家工商总局争取政策支持,加快推动自贸试验区建设发展。
围绕“投资贸易便利”目标,将在自贸试验区推行注册登记全程电子化和电子营业执照试点,以企业办理登记“零见面”、电子营业执照“无介质”为目标,全面开通区域全覆盖、业务全覆盖、企业类型全覆盖的网上登记系统;推行“多证合一”改革,降低制度性成本,实现“一照走天下、一码管终身”;合并审批流程、简化办事手续,实现群众办事“最好不跑一次”和“最多只跑一次”,提升公共服务水平。
围绕“高端产业集聚”目标,将在自贸试验区深入实施商标品牌战略和广告战略,积极推进重庆商标交易中心、重庆商标综合服务中心建设,为企业提供一站式商标综合服务。
围绕“监管高效便捷”目标,将运用大数据、云计算等信息化手段创新智慧监管,加大法人数据库与地理空间数据库的深度融合,进一步优化市场主体分类监管平台功能。
重庆目前4个国家一类口岸有3个,即江北国际机场航空口岸、重庆港水运口岸、团结村铁路口岸在重庆自贸试验区范围内。“投资贸易便利”是自贸试验区一项重要建设目标,实现这一目标的关键措施就是加快重庆国际贸易“单一窗口”的建设。当前,我们正按照国家口岸办的统一部署和市委、市政府的要求,全力推进重庆国际贸易“单一窗口”建设。
在国际贸易过程中,申报人通过电子口岸平台一点接入,一次性提交满足口岸管理部门及口岸单位相关要求的标准化的单证和相关电子信息,口岸管理部门通过这一平台共享数据信息、实施职能管理,并将处理结果统一通过“单一窗口”反馈给申报人。这种模式也就是自贸试验区提出“一口受理,同步审批”的“一站式”高效服务模式,改变当前国际贸易通关过程中的“多口受理,逐步审批”现象,目的是优化通关流程、提高申报效率、缩短通关时间、降低企业成本,“让数据多跑路,企业少跑腿”,真正实现贸易便利化。
市公安局将推出14项出入境政策措施,紧扣人才要素,契合自贸试验区主体定位、功能特点和实际需求,释放出入境政策红利,积极助力引才引智。主要服务外籍高层次人才、外籍华人、外籍留学生和长期在华工作外籍人员等4类群体,具体涉及签证、入境出境、停留居留、永久居留等多层面的出入境优惠政策和便利性服务举措。
将授权自贸办推荐外籍高层次人才、配偶及未成年子女直接申请在华永久居留资格,放宽永久居留准入标准,下放推荐权,向海外高端人才释放强烈的引才信号;以工资和税收为标准建立外籍人才申请在华永久居留的市场化渠道,坚持市场配置、市场评价的外籍人才引进机制,给予用人主体更多的自主权。
这14项出入境政策措施将对我市进一步吸引聚集外籍人才,助推自贸试验区建设,服务我市开放型经济发展发挥积极作用。目前,市公安局和相关职能部门正立足自身职责,密切协作,充分沟通,拟定具体实施标准和细则,待报公安部审批后,最迟在5月落地实施。
重庆法院主动融入重庆自贸试验区建设进程,立足重庆自贸试验区的实际,充分发挥司法职能,积极营造法治化、国际化、便利化营商环境,为自贸试验区建设顺利推进提供有力的司法保障与服务。
在设立重庆自贸试验区之前,重庆法院未雨绸缪,经最高人民法院批复同意,于2014年2月设立了中国首个跨区域管辖、“三合一”且可以受理部分专利纠纷的基层专业法庭—重庆市两江新区知识产权法庭。法庭成立以来,共受理各类知识产权案件4893件,审结4618件。法庭率先实行跨区域管辖与“三合一”,集中受理渝北区、江北区、北碚区辖区内的知识产权民事、刑事、行政案件。
下一步,重庆法院将认真研究上海、广东、天津、福建等地的成功经验,结合司法体制机制改革要求,对涉自贸试验区案件审理机制进行前瞻性设计。突出涉自贸试验区审判的专业特征,并在审判职能设置、法官遴选和培养、内部运行管理等各方面匹配自贸试验区发展建设的特殊需求,提升司法服务保障自贸试验区建设的能力和水平。
