Can I go to Hong Kong and Macao by myself?

You can't go to Hong Kong and Macao by yourself.

A group tourist visa requires a group to go through customs together. If you want to go alone, you need to be included in the team list, that is, ask someone to deliver it. Hong Kong and Macao Pass Team Travel Sign can't be signed by itself, so it needs to be "sent". "seeing you off" is just a common name, but it is actually called "going in and out with the team", which is also called "making a list" You don't have to have a travel agency to send it, but you must have a list of teams going to Hong Kong and Macao, or you won't pass the L-sign. With this list, you can go through the customs.

You can buy customs clearance service online and directly search whether to send it to Hong Kong or Macao. You will write clearly what information you need to provide to the seller (departure time, exit door, pass number, etc.). You need to report to the customs to help you fill in the customs clearance information). It's best to buy it in advance (generally it's cheaper to buy it in advance than on the same day). When you need to leave the country, make an appointment with the seller, get the customs clearance form near the pass, and you can go alone.

Differences between Hong Kong and Macao Pass Groups and Individual Travel Endorsements

The difference between Hong Kong and Macao Pass group and individual travel endorsement is also called the difference between G-sign and L-sign.

G sign: it means "personal travel endorsement" and is restricted by the city where it is located. You can freely enter and leave Hong Kong without going abroad with a group, and you can fly directly from the mainland to Hong Kong.

L-sign: it means "endorsement for group travel". For most cities, it is the L symbol. If you want to leave the country with a group, you can't fly directly to Hong Kong.

The visa is on your Hong Kong and Macao Pass, which will indicate your G-sign or L-sign. If the passenger's Hong Kong and Macao pass is marked with an L-shaped sign, that is, an L-shaped sign with a group, he can also enter from Shenzhen and have someone send the L-shaped sign to the customs in Shenzhen. The most convenient thing is that in the exit hall of Luohu Port Building, all the people wearing badges on their chests are engaged in this business.

The person who signs you to the customs will be responsible for making a team list for you and taking you through the border inspection in the mainland. After crossing the mainland border, to Hong Kong, 99.9999% of both L and G passed. When you return to the mainland, you can come back freely. You can fly directly without going through customs. From Hong Kong to Macao or Macao to Hong Kong, L endorsement does not need to go through customs, but if Macao returns to the mainland via Zhuhai, it needs to go through customs again.
