Detailed procedures for overseas entry into Hong Kong and transfer back to the Mainland

I believe everyone should know that the most convenient way to return home from abroad is to enter Hong Kong and then transfer from Hong Kong to the mainland. But many people just know this method and don't know how to do this set of processes. The following small series will sort out this detailed process for everyone, and friends in need can come and have a look!

1. Suggested booking order for booking hotels and air tickets: Buy Hong Kong-Mainland air tickets → Book isolated hotels in Hong Kong → Buy overseas-Hong Kong air tickets, because the air tickets for returning to the mainland and isolated hotels in Hong Kong are getting more and more tight, while the air tickets for overseas-Hong Kong sections are more abundant and flexible.

2. Prepare passport, vaccine certificate and nucleic acid negative certificate. Anyone who has stayed overseas and boarded a plane to come to Hong Kong must meet three basic requirements, including:

1, showing the approved vaccination records.

The negative results of COVID-19 PCR nucleic acid detection within 2.48 hours proved that

3. Show the reservation confirmation of the designated isolation hotel for 7 nights from the arrival date (compulsory isolation will be completed in advance if it meets the requirements) or 14 nights (compulsory isolation will not be arranged in advance).

Tips: Conditions for shortening the quarantine period to 7 days

(1) Those who have completed vaccination and/or their accompanying children 1 1 children under the age of 0 are negative in the results of PCR nucleic acid detection on the fifth day of arrival and rapid antigen detection on the sixth and seventh days, so they can complete isolation ahead of schedule, and must leave the designated isolation hotel and monitor themselves seven days later.

(2) On the day of12' s arrival in Hong Kong, go to the community testing center or mobile sampling station (free of charge) or go to the medical testing institution recognized by the local government (at its own expense) to receive professional swab sampling for compulsory PCR nucleic acid detection.

If you choose not to complete the compulsory isolation in advance (you must hold the reservation confirmation of the designated isolation hotel 14 night), you can leave after confirming the negative results of PCR nucleic acid detection and rapid antigen detection on 12 days.

Reminder: Since May 3rd,1day, people aged/0/2 or above must have received at least two doses of vaccine when entering Hong Kong. If you have been vaccinated with the second dose for six months, you must have been vaccinated with the third dose (you can enter Hong Kong 14 days after the third dose).

3. Entry into Hong Kong for quarantine 1. After arriving in Hong Kong, it is necessary to carry out "pending inspection" at the airport (accepting nucleic acid testing and rapid antigen testing by special personnel to shorten the entry time);

2. Wait for the result of rapid antigen detection;

3. Go through entry and exit formalities+claim luggage;

4. Take a special bus to the closed-loop management isolation hotel and wait for the nucleic acid test results;

5. If the nucleic acid test result is negative, continue to carry out "compulsory isolation" in the hotel.

In addition, many friends worry that citizens with China passports can only stay in Hong Kong for seven days after entering Hong Kong, but the quarantine requirement in Hong Kong is seven to 14 days. What should I do if they are positive after seven days or need to stay in Hong Kong for a longer time?

In fact, the SAR Government has responded to this situation. If you can't leave the country after seven days of isolation, and you can't book an isolation hotel in Shenzhen for any reasonable reason such as visiting relatives, losing your passport or testing positive, you can apply for an extension. You only need to make a simple registration online, and 230 yuan Dollar can submit an application for renewal. Please fill in a Hong Kong contact in the application form as a guarantee.

4. Returning to the Mainland via Hong Kong 1, the plane

5-8 hours before the departure of Hong Kong-Mainland flights, passengers need to carry out nucleic acid testing at the Hong Kong airport, and the results will generally be obtained within 3 hours. Passengers can make an appointment for the test period as early as one week before travel. This test cannot replace the self-funded nucleic acid test according to the requirements of local governments in the Mainland. This test is only applicable to passengers departing from Hong Kong for the Mainland or Macau, and is provided by the government free of charge. Only when the test result is negative can they check in. Of course, if you choose to go to Zhuhai or Shenzhen for isolation, you need to conduct your own nucleic acid testing after isolation.

2. Shenzhen Bay Port

If you choose to return to the mainland by land through Shenzhen Bay Port, you need to make an appointment for the number of customs clearance places through the "Online Booking System for Health Station Rooms" during the hotel isolation period, and prepare a negative report on nucleic acid testing. However, the customs clearance quota is very tight now, and it may not be able to grab the quota.

3. Guangdong

If you choose to return to the mainland by land through Zhuhai port, you need to book a bus ticket during the hotel isolation period. Information required for customs clearance: negative report of nucleic acid test within 48 hours+ID card+screenshot of QR code of reserved air ticket. Wechat can pay attention to the official account of WeChat, the shuttle bus of Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, which is open at 20:00 every Tuesday night, and reserve tickets for next week.

5. Precautions Although this method will give everyone the opportunity to enter Hong Kong or return to the Mainland through Hong Kong, there are several risks that need to be carefully considered.

You must ensure that you are eligible for 7-day compulsory isolation.

The success of the application for extension of stay and the approval of the extension period are all decided by the Immigration Department.

Hong Kong isolation hotel rooms continue to be tense, so be sure to book in advance.

If you go back to the mainland, you should confirm whether you have air tickets, Shenzhen health station, Kimba tickets, etc.

At present, entry with a passport belongs to transit through Hong Kong, and the destination needs to be a mainland city or other cities. You can't go back to your overseas origin in the same way, and you can't use your passport to go from Hong Kong to Macau.
