Coronavirus Guide: China

Chinese Covid Travel updates

All travellers must apply for a visa and also present two negative tests — PCR and antibody tests — taken within 48 hours of travel.
For the newly qualified entrants, entry depends on having received two doses of Covid-19 vaccines at least 14 days prior to entry. They must apply for a visa in advance, and show their proof of vaccination on arrival, as well as the negative tests.
Arrivals are screened once more at the airport. Those failing the checks will be sent to government facilities. You must then quarantine on arrival. Some regions demand 14 days; others, 21.

If you test positive for COVID-19 you will be placed into a designated COVID hospital for centralized care.
