The Government reminded the public that starting from today (July 15), outbound travelers planning to cross the boundary via the Shenzhen Bay Control Point are required to present proof of booking confirmation for undergoing the special nucleic acid test. Members of the public can reserve the special nucleic acid testing service at the control point through the online booking system. The booking system has been operating smoothly since its commencement at 0.00 am on July 14. Currently, there are still ample testing time slots available for reservation.
After obtaining a reservation at a Shenzhen quarantine hotel, public members could reserve a time slot through the online booking system on the day of making the reservation or in the coming six days for a special nucleic acid test. Each testing session is 30 minutes. They must input their name, identification document number, and reservation number of the Shenzhen quarantine hotel when booking.
On the day of crossing the boundary, travelers should arrive at the Shenzhen Bay Control Point during the time slot as reserved. They can only undergo the special nucleic acid test upon presentation of the SMS or screen capture of the booking confirmation to the staff on-site. Those who fail to present the booking confirmation of the special nucleic acid test or fail to arrive at the control point during the reserved time slot will not be able to continue with their journey across the boundary should they eventually not be able to undergo the test at the control point.
The Government will closely monitor the cross-boundary passenger flow and expand the testing capacity and waiting area at the appropriate junctures to streamline the clearance procedures.
