Scope

GB/T 44379-2024 is the English-translated version of 中国及世界主要航空口岸及相关地点代码.

GB/T 44379-2024 is the Chinese code table for the world's main air ports of entry and the locations related to them, the air counterpart of the railway table GB/T 44372. Air freight and express carry a small share of the tonnage and a very large share of the value of Chinese trade, and every shipment generates a customs declaration, an air waybill and a set of tracking records that have to name an origin, a destination and any transit point in a form every system agrees on. This standard supplies those identifiers, adopting the air-relevant subset of UN/LOCODE. The document specifies the principles by which the table is compiled, the structure of the code and of the table, the maintenance and management of the table, and then the table itself, which occupies almost all of the 299 pages: for each location the five-letter code, the name, the country or region and the subdivision. For a freight forwarder, an express operator, a customs broker or anyone building a system that handles Chinese air cargo, this is the reference.
