The China International Import Expo Bureau on May 26 released several favorable measures to help exhibitors of the fifth CIIE's business exhibition overcome difficulties in production and operation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and other factors.

Exhibitors that set up their own booths will be entitled to a 300-yuan subsidy for each square meter of their exhibition space. The subsidies, which shall be no more than an exhibitor's actual spending on setting up the booth, can be redeemed directly or used to offset booth fees at the sixth CIIE or costs incurred during the fifth CIIE, including those concerning forums, activities, hotels and advertisements.

Details about application procedures will be released later.

The registration deadline for the fifth CIIE has also been extended till July 31, 2022.

The final interpretation of above-mentioned policies is at the sole discretion of the CIIE Bureau.
