12月18日，海南全岛正式封关运作。 这标志着海南自贸港建设迈入全新阶段，全岛在海关监管制度上正式成为"境内关外"区域，实行"一线 放开、二线管住、岛内自由"。 封关后，海南与境外间的"一线"进口商品零关税目录得到大幅扩容：享惠商品税目将从约1900个大幅扩 大至约6600个，约占全部商品的74%，比封关前提高53%。 享惠主体进一步扩大，基本覆盖全岛有实际进口需求的各类企事业单位及民办非企业单位。 当下的海南岛与消费者期望中的"免税天堂"还有一段距离。 此次封关后的"零关税"主要免除进口环节关税、增值税和消费税，中心目标是促进产业发展，与面向旅 客的 "离岛免税"政策是两套独立体系。 新增商品范围也更多集中在原材料与半成品领域，而非服饰、香化、箱包等常见消费品。 因此无论是免税渠道还是有税渠道的购物体验，均不会受到大的冲击。 不过，作为海南建设"国际旅游消费中心"的核心引擎，离岛免税板块仍因此"牵一发而动全身"。 海南岛逐步开放的进程，更将免税龙头中国中免推向一个挑战与机遇深度交织的重要关口。 海南机遇 在众多运营商中，中国中免是布局最早、投入最重的市场主导者。 海南现有12家离岛免税店，中免独占半数席位， ...
