Hong Kong will start to reopen its border with mainland China on Sunday and allow tens of thousands of people to cross from each side every day without quarantine
Thursday’s announcement came as China is easing some of the world’s toughest anti-virus controls. From Sunday, China will also gradually increase the number of flights between Hong Kong and the mainland and scrap the limit on passenger numbers for flights from the city, the Chinese government said in a statement.“When travelers enter the mainland, they will no longer need to undergo quarantine,” Chief Executive John Lee said at a press conference.
The Hong Kong government will decide when to expand the scale of border reopening after reviewing the situation with mainland authorities, Lee added. Travelers will have to obtain a negative COVID-19 test result within 48 hours before departure and register online to secure a quota slot.
