Ebuduge Border Port in Inner Mongolia

Ebuduge Port (额布都格口岸) is a customs clearance port located in the border region of China. It is situated 22 kilometers southwest of Amugulang Town, New Barag Left Banner, Hulunbuir, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Its coordinates are 118°10′25″ E, 48°2′27″ N. The port is 175 kilometers from Hulunbuir City (formerly Hailar), and it corresponds with the Bayan Khoshuu Port of Mongolia across the Haraa River.

Geographical Environment: Ebuduge Port faces the Bayan Khoshuu Port of Mongolia and is one of the eight open ports of Hulunbuir City. It was established as a temporary goods transit point by the Autonomous Region People’s Government in 1991, upgraded to a Class I seasonal open port in 1995, and achieved year-round temporary centralized opening for the Daqing Oilfield Tamtsag Project in 2006. In 2009, it was approved by the State Council as a bilateral seasonal highway port for passenger and freight transport. It officially became a national open port after passing national-level acceptance in 2012. Starting from June 2014, it implemented a 7-day clearance period for overseas projects of Daqing, and from August 20, it began full-year temporary public opening. It is expected to achieve year-round opening in the near future.

Geographical Overview: Ebuduge Port is located 22 kilometers southwest of Amugulang Town, New Barag Left Banner, Hulunbuir, Inner Mongolia, near the 578th (New Boundary Marker 1424) boundary marker. Its coordinates are 118°10′25″ E, 48°2′27″ N. It is 175 kilometers from Hulunbuir City (formerly Hailar), corresponding with the Bayan Khoshuu Port of Mongolia across the Haraa River. Historically, residents on both sides of the border have had close personal and trade exchanges. With improved relations and increased people-to-people exchanges between the two countries, both sides have expressed a desire to open the Ebuduge-Bayan Khoshuu Port. Therefore, in May 1991, the Autonomous Region People’s Government approved Ebuduge as a temporary transit point with the internal affairs document (1991) No. 41. In April 2005, Daqing Oilfield Co., Ltd. purchased oil exploration rights in Mongolia to support Daqing Oilfield Co., Ltd.’s overseas exploration projects and meet domestic oil demand. The General Administration of Customs officially approved Ebuduge Port to implement a full year of temporary centralized switching in February 2006, and after consultation between the relevant departments of China and Mongolia, Ebuduge Port was officially temporarily switched on February 27.

Opposite Port: Ebuduge Port faces the Bayan Khoshuu Port of Mongolia. The power supply for the Bayan Khoshuu Port of Mongolia is provided by the Xinzuoqi Power Co., Ltd., and was electrified in mid-December 2005. The office buildings of Bayan Khoshuu Port of Mongolia were constructed with funding from Daqing Oilfield Co., Ltd. The opposite side of the port is under the administration of Sunbur Sum, Eastern Province, Mongolia. Sum township is located in the Eastern Province of Mongolia, with its county seat, Sum Buer, 1000 kilometers from the capital Ulaanbaatar, with a population of nearly 5000 people. The area has rich forest and wildlife resources, with some areas containing minerals such as lignite and asbestos. Agriculture is the main industry, with 30,000 hectares of cultivated land.
