On January 22, 2025, the Pingtan Frontier Inspection Station police completed the outbound formalities for the Comoros-flagged vessel Taha-97, marking the first cargo shipment from Pingtan Port to Dubai, United Arab Emirates. This milestone signifies the expansion of Pingtan Port's international trade routes and service network.

The Taha-97 was originally the Chinese-flagged vessel Nanshun 19, which arrived at Jinjing Port in Pingtan on January 16 to apply for a change of vessel nationality. Through the joint efforts of Pingtan's Frontier Inspection Station, Maritime Affairs, and others, the transfer process was successfully completed, renaming the vessel to its new flag.

This year, Pingtan Port has welcomed several vessels undergoing nationality changes.
