Do I have to have an exit tour guide card to take a tour group to Hong Kong as a tour leader? (Team leader, please come in)

Theoretically, it is necessary, because going to Hong Kong is considered as an outbound tour, but in some places, or some travel agencies are related to China's border defense, they can go out without a team leader's card, as long as the travel agency issues a certificate and then gets a seal at the border defense, or if all your group guests are personal endorsements, there is no need for a triple list of travel agencies, including that you are also a personal endorsement. Oh, it is not possible to have a group endorsement. In this way, travel agencies can send people out without a team leader's card, and border guards won't get stuck. But recently, when the Olympic Games came, there were riots everywhere, and the torch was being passed, so martial law was imposed everywhere. Anyway, I went to Hong Kong in March and never went there again. Recently, the border guard company was afraid to send people out without a team leader's card.

The content of the English test for outbound tour leaders is a written test, which is very simple, that is, Chinese-English translation, or English-Chinese translation, but actually work.
