In accordance with the relevant policies on epidemic prevention and control, all passengers departing from Hong Kong are required to provide a paper copy of the negative PCR test report taken within 48 hours before the scheduled flight departure (infants and children are not exempt).

Note: A PCR test issued 24-hour before departure would also be required when travelling to Guangdong (GD) or Macao to avoid hiccups when crossing the border.

The PCR test report shall conform to the following requirements:
