China will fully reopen borders with its special administrative regions of Hong Kong and Macao next week
From Monday, travelers entering mainland China from Hong Kong or Macao will no longer need to provide proof of negative Covid tests, as long as they have not traveled abroad in the previous week, the State Council’s Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office said in a Friday statement. Daily quotas on the number of travelers will also be scrapped. The resumption of normal travel is expected to provide much support to the battered economies of the two cities.
Under the partial reopening, travelers were required to test negative for Covid-19 and make online bookings for trips in advance under a daily quota system. That is now no longer required, Hong Kong Chief Secretary Chan Kwok-ki said at a press conference Friday, adding that both sides would soon be able to get back to “normal travel.
