The Chinese Maritime Customs Service was founded in 1854, originally known as known as the Imperial Maritime Customs Service. Not long after it was established, the agency began to publish reports on a regular basis. 

The myriad publications of the Chinese Maritime Customs Service can be roughly divided into seven groups: 

  • Statistical Series
  • Special Series
  • Miscellaneous Series
  • Service Series
  • Office Series
  • Inspectorate Series
  • Postal Series.

These publications came to the Harvard-Yenching Library as gifts from Edward B. Drew, J. D. Campell, the Inspector General of Customs, Shanghai, or from H. B. Morse, Archibald, C. Cooldege, S. H. Dexter, among others.
