Dubai Customs is committed to bolstering Dubais economic growth by supporting foreign trade and investment from all parts of the world, including China. We are very keen to assist Chinese traders and investors who are willing to expand their market potential here, making best use of Dubais position as a fast-growing global trade hub, said Musabih.
