--Welcome everyone to invest in Dongguan

Dongguan is the pilot area of China's reform and opening up, and an important node city in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA). Dongguan has always adhered to the open and cooperative attitude of "welcoming guests from all over the world".

Founded in 1988, it is a young city that boasts a land area of 2,460 square kilometers, with a permanent population of 10.48 million and an average age of 33.4 years old.

Located in the geometric center of the GBA, it enjoys an excellent geographical location, and it is surrounded by three international airports in Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and Hong Kong. It is 15 minutes away from Guangzhou and Shenzhen by high-speed railways, and 33 minutes away from Kowloon, Hong Kong.

Dongguan cooperated with Hong Kong to build the Dongguan-Hong Kong International Airport Logistics Park, the world's first cross-border sea-air transport channel, where enterprise products can be sent directly to the Hong Kong International Airport to the world through a one-time inspection and security check in Dongguan, making Dongguan the only city that can provide 24-hour customs clearance service in China at present.

Dongguan exported from the park, goods can be delivered to Hong Kong in 6 hours, and another 12 hours by air to Europe, and goods can be imported from Europe in about one day.
