A PCR test 48 hours before departure, a compulsory health declarationfollowed by a quarantine reduced to seven days. This is what the Hong Kong to visit the city from 1 May. In addition to these formalities, travellers must show a confirmation of their stay and register on the tracking application of Hong Kong.
So things are improving, even if entry requirements for Hong Kong are still much more draconian than those for South Korea or Singapore. In the previous situation, the authorities in the Chinese city required a mandatory 15-day quarantine. Candidates for Hong Kong will also have to undergo several antigen tests during quarantine.
