Notice for China-bound Travelers
Valid since April 29, 2023
Starting from January 8, 2023, COVID-19 will be managed as a Class B infectious disease in China, and border control measures will be adjusted accordingly. China-bound travelers are advised to read the following information to facilitate traveling:
1. Health Declaration to China Customs
Travelers need to declare the negative test result to China Customs by filling out the Health Declaration Form either on the WeChat mini program of China Customs (scan the QR code below), or at https://htdecl.chinaport.gov.cn/htdeclweb/home/pages/healthDeclare/declare.html, or via the China Customs APP. Please be advised that, if asked to provide contact persons in China and their mobile phone/landline number, one of the options is that you may fill with Contact person: Front Desk Helper of the hotel where you will stay in China, and the hotel sale’s manager mobile and the land phone.
2. Entry Inspection
There will be no nucleic acid test (traveler’s PCR test) requirements when travelers are in China, and no quarantine for those whose health declaration and entry inspection produce normal results. In case of a positive test result or any symptoms such as fever detected by China Customs, travelers will take an antigen test. Those who test positive in the test will need to self-quarantine.
Please notice: Travelers are advised to take primary responsibility for their health and use precautionary measures for self-protection.
